I liked it.

8/10

"I saw the movie recently and really liked it. I surprised myself and cried. This movie is in the same niche genre as "Away from Her" - or even "The Bucket List" but handles the whole aging theme with incredible authenticity. It's really really tough to have the main character as unlikable as Hagar. The director does a masterful job with the challenge. Hagar's hard to understand. Her world has hard edges and she isn't a warm endearing woman at all. The first scene gets this across without any compromise. Hagar (Ellen Burnstyn) is being taken to a nursing home..."

During filming, Ellen Burstyn saw on the call sheet a long lost relative who was working on the crew.
