Nonnas

This is not your average generated content by netflix, this is a real film with emotions.

An Incredible cast doing their best in a beautiful film with inspiring true story ,heartwarming soundtrack ,it everything you want in a romantic comedy and more it's simply perfect for what it's. Yeah there are many similar films was made in the early 2000s but we don't get many movies like this anymore especially if it is done well.it needed more details but every character had enough background and more importantly charm to make you care and the cast is well put together I'm sure fans of the sopranos will be happy.

Who? I need to know the person so I could send a big warm thanks. Its a story so worthy to tell, it's light, it's warm and it is about family. I wish the restaurant was closer to home so I could taste the flavours of it all. I loved the nonnas, loved to see Susan Sarandon shine and loved Vince! This is a must watch movie if you ever miss home.

I miss my nonna so much and this brought tears to my eyes. Not in a sad way though, it was tears remembering all the good times we had around the beautiful and joyful table she used to make for us.

I love when people make movies to make you feel good and embraced. The world needs it! I needed it!

Thank you!!!!!

'Nonnas' is a sweet film, from Stephen Chbosky, based on a true story about a small, family-style restaurant (Enoteca Maria) on Staten Island. It had small-film greatness lurking, but the script needed the touch of a great comedy writer, like James Brooks or even Terry Winter.

Winter would have felt right at home writing for Sopranos alums: Lorraine Bracco, Drea de Mateo and Michael Rispoli. Add to that Susan Sarandon and Talia Shire, along with lead Vince Vaughn, and you have a Hell of a cast and, of course, the real star is the Italian food!

So, the film is heartwarming and entertaining, but not as great as it could have been.

I often watch a movie these days and up thinking "I wish I had those two hours back. What a waste."

This movie was just the opposite. Two hours very well spent. It has a great story that made me laugh and cry.

It has a fantastic cast. Every single one of the actors in this is stellar.

It has great music.

And it has food. Oh my goodness the food. Served family style - there are huge bowls of streaming pasta and pans of lasagne. Plates of cannoli.

The food looks so good that it made me feel faint.

Even writing this, my stomach is rumbling.

I'm not Italian but I am fond of Italian-leaning movies like Moonstruck, and I totally love the Inspector Montalbano detective series (it takes place in Sicily and is very food-forward).

I didn't know about the "sauce versus gravy" question. Hmmm.

So this movie is about love and family and grief and hope and friendship and perseverance. It is easy on the eyes - not overly directed or overwhelmingly produced. It's about growing old and staying young. And it's about food.

I recommend it. 9 stars but it probably could be 10. It's not like "Best Picture" quality but it is sweet and has heart. I have nothing bad to say about it.

Nonnas is a heartwarming tribute to the enduring power of family, tradition, and the love that goes into every dish. It's a must-watch for anyone who believes in the magic of a grandmother's cooking and the stories that simmer alongside every recipe.

The film follows Joe, a man seeking purpose after the loss of his mother. He channels his grief into opening a Staten Island restaurant, staffed by spirited Italian "nonnas", who bring their cherished family recipes to life.

A definite must-watch and heartwarming film! One of Netflix best films I think!! It is also based on a true story, and showcases delightful Italian cuisine.
