Good movie about a man who decides to open a restaurant after his mother dies. The movie has the right tone (a little funny, a little touching). A bit predictable, but it's easy to watch. Entertaining characters and a great cast. A small 3.5 stars for this movie that is based on the true story of this restaurant.

Nothing new to see here. Very predictable movie of which there are so many. With ups and downs and when you think it won't work and is over then...... Lead actor did well, the nonnas played too much act.

Nonnas
Nonnas is about Joe Scaravella, a Brooklyn man who, after losing his mother and grandmother, opens an Italian restaurant run by grandmothers from different regions of Italy. While he struggles with his grief and the difficulties of starting his business, a close-knit community forms around the restaurant.
Wonderfully heartwarming feelgood film, drenched in a rich Italian sauce. Yes, there are more films like this, and it never really surprises – but honestly: who cares? When they are well made, like this one, they always give me a warm and pleasant feeling.
Vince Vaughn plays his role solidly; especially in the more emotional moments he knows how to convince. But the real stars are of course the nonnas. Their chemistry bursts from the screen and they bring exactly the right mix of humor and sentiment. No wonder, because they are all seasoned actresses, and you can see that in every scene.
The restaurant is the beating heart of the film. The atmosphere is warm and homely, and the food is filmed with visible pleasure. It is almost impossible not to get hungry. You really hope that Joe can get the restaurant going.
Nonnas may not be groundbreaking, but it is exactly what you hope for: a warm film about tradition, family and sitting together at the table. And sometimes that is just enough.
3.5 stars.
