Reception

The Guardian film critic Peter Bradshaw described the film as "gentle, wistful late-life comedy, a sort of Italian version of Last of the Summer Wine." According to Little [White Lies (magazine)|Little White Lies] reviewer David Jenkins, the film is "delightful" and "does float by gracefully on a wave of easy, lightly ironic charm, and di Gregorio himself is just an extremely warm and funny screen presence".
