Rating: 3/4 -- The message is timeless. Family matters. Tell people you love them. Despite its predictability, the movie works because it is completely without guile.

Rating: C- -- There's a place for a movie like this--but it's really on the Hallmark Hall of Fame rather than in an auditorium you have to pay to get into. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- Aggressive heartwarmer, which turns out to be much more of a heartburner.

Rating: 3/5 -- Nino acts like an Italian fairy-god-uncle... transforming this house into a home - where flowers thrive, violin music fills the air, and everybody eats dinner together. Full Review

Rating: D+ -- A third-rate Robin Williams movie that didn't even have the decency to hire Robin Williams.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution

It feels something like a made-for-TV movie that fell back behind the fridge circa 1982 and has been rotting there ever since.

Rating: 6/10 -- As a film in general, Uncle Nino would probably be no more than a 6 out of 10, but as a family film it merits a 7. Full Review

Product Description:

Overworked executive Robert Micelli (Golden Globe nominee Joe Mantegna, Searching for Bobby Fischer) has little time for his loving wife (Academy Award nominee Anne Archer, Patriot Games), rebellious fourteen-year-old son, Bobby, (Trevor Morgan, Jurassic Park III) and twelve-year-old daughter, Gina (Gina Mantegna, 13 Going On 30), who desperately wants a dog. This disconnected family is transformed by long-lost Uncle Nino (Pierrino Mascarino, Tears of the Sun), an old world Italian who unexpectedly arrives on their doorstep for a visit. Nino's simple, old-fashioned ways make him a curiosity to the neighborhood, and an embarrassment to Robert. But, Nino is slowly able to connect with each member of the family, and teach Robert how to enjoy life's simple pleasures: good food, good music, and most important, La Famiglia! Uncle Nino is that rare family film whose simple story and gentle humor can be enjoyed by all ages. Bonus Feature: Interview with Joe Mantegna and his daughter, Gina Mantegna. Joe explores his Italian heritage and the importance of family. Joe and Gina also share their thoughts on this poignant film, and talk about working together for the first time. Winner of the Crystal Heart Award: Heartland Film Festival. Rated: PG. In addition to the Blu-ray disc, this combo pack also includes: 1.  DVD version of the program(s) that you can play in your DVD player, vehicle or computer. 2.  Digital copy of the program that you can download to your computer and/or transfer to your mobile devices.
