Moving On

"While the tonal shifts from melodrama to mordant comedy don’t always work, Fonda and Tomlin are as good as they have ever been..."

"(Tomlin and Fonda's) comic partnership... is certainly the main pleasure of Moving On, an otherwise thin and muddled new film directed by Paul Weitz."

"Moving On is effortlessly intelligent in depicting the experience of being old."

"How do you mess up a revenge comedy starring Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin? At least when it comes to that question, Moving On might prove to be instructive."

"An amusing and bittersweet little tale..."

"Moving On’s tonal whiplash is what keeps it from handily taking on the serious and complex issues it sketches for its characters."

"As they often do, Tomlin and Fonda make their material look sharper than it really is."

"A fairly benign comedy with a #MeToo twist."

"Unfortunately, (Fonda and Tomlin) can only go so far in distracting from the fundamental tonal issues that never convincingly jibe with the film’s darker-edged themes."

"SKIP IT. Even two of the all-time greats can’t overcome Moving On’s myriad problems."
