The winning aspect of this adaptation of a best-selling autobiography is in the director's management of the points of view.

Susan Walker, Toronto Star
Rotten

Frustratingly stagnant at times but ultimately a moving story about a dying father and the son who must come to terms with him.

Connie Ogle, Miami Herald

Everything in Water Lilies is more guarded, more complex and far more interesting than it seems.

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
Fresh

A small, beautifully acted piece adapted from the British poet Blake Morrison's memoir.

Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer

What ensures our pleasure is the dialogue, which is supple, and the quality of the acting.

Stanley Kauffmann, The New Republic
