What the critics say
Critics largely praise this small-town slice of middle-class life for its warm ensemble performances, authentic milieu and especially the father character, though several note a draggy pace, a weak second half or flat romance and climax.

How this number was made. We read every review and derive a 0–100 reading from each — including where the critic printed a number, which stays first on its row, because it’s theirs. The Filmi Score is the mean of 8 readings; 4 of those rows also carry the critic’s own rating, shown beside ours. Rubric v2.1, computed 26 Oct 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.
