peter S @RT60369833 08/24/2023 Mary Elizabeth Winstead should earn a prize for her performance in this movie, the worst ever actress to play in a movie while pretending she was good. See more steve d @RT35616104 12/06/2022 The film enjoyment hinges on how much you like its actress. I love her, so I liked it a lot. See more mauro l @Mauro_Lanari 07/30/2018 Mike D'Angelo ("The A.V. Club"): "So doggedly ordinary that it constantly teeters on the edge of tedium." "A character study without character." (Mauro Lanari) See more 02/04/2018 Some self-discoveries come looking for you! Not to be confused with Venice in the title as the Europe's own Venice. It's a place in Los Agenles, USA. I don't know it is to be called a B movie or an indie, but definitely a decent drama with a decent storyline and cast. Indeed, it was about Alex, a middle age working and married woman with a young son. Her husband who takes care of the household, is now deserted them. So in her busy working life, Alex comes to realise the family bonding, particularly with her son. Then there's her dad and sister who are a troublemaker than any useful. So her life with a new perspective begins, like a self-discovery. This is a directional debut for a supporting actor. He should be directing more films. I really liked it. It was simple and obviously realistic. This thing happens in the real world. So all I felt it was a reflection of someone's real life on the screen. Well written and directed. I liked the cast too. Mary Elizabeth was very good and so the rest of them. This is not an unexpected film, but with its limits it had narrated a fine story. The ratings are not fair. It's surely worth a watch and better than an average. I think only the adult would recognise it from its contents with similar experiences of their own lives. 7/10 See more 08/29/2016 It started off interesting, but slowly just becomes boring Mary E. does a great job and is a standout. This could have been great, but the plot with its subplots just did not workout well by the end. See more farah r @Farah 07/31/2016 Elizabeth Winstead's performance is the highlight of this sentimental drama. Although it's slow, there's a credibility to the story that makes it easy to enjoy the little moments. See more Read all reviews
