"Acerbically funny...Lily Tomlin giving a career-capping performance." -Stephen Holden, The New York Times
"A story about three generations of women and how they interact with each other. Lily Tomlin adds heart, soul, and, naturally, tons of comedy." -Brian Moylan, The Guardian
"Tomlin's greatest role since 'Nashville.' Genuinely funny, totally smart, and generous." -Nathaniel Rogers, The Film Experience
Lily Tomlin stars as Elle who has just gotten through breaking up with her girlfriend when Elle's granddaughter Sage unexpectedly shows up needing $600 bucks before sundown. Temporarily broke, Grandma Elle and Sage spend the day trying to get their hands on the cash as their unannounced visits to old friends and flames end up rattling skeletons and digging up secrets. "The pistol-packin' granny has been a comedy archetype for years, but it turns out to be the role of a lifetime for Lily Tomlin, whose tour de force performance lights up this well-written escapade by Paul Weitz." (J.R. Jones, Chicago Reader).
