    I felt the writing was a little clunky and heavy-handed at times, but I enjoyed the moral of the story. PSH and Kate Hudson popped off the screen. Jimmy Fallon was there. He provided one of the plentiful “lol”s for me.

    ★★★★½

    Molto bene, as they would say in this Italian movie, whose lines are mostly in Italian. 

    A heartwarming and straightforward story. The setting makes the movie, for me. Beautiful cars, great haircuts, portly and greasy farm men, excellent leather boots. Marco Leonardi is fantastic, a cowboy hiding in the herd. Just so molto bene for me. Pinched fingers, chef’s kiss.

    Thought it’d be a nice movie about driving around LA then Tom Cruise ruined it.
