So often the bearer of gravitas and dignity, Freeman shows up with a smirk on his face and a song in his heart
This is a sharp little slice of whimsy with Freeman giving a funny, very laid-back and sometimes touching performance.
Freeman and Paz winningly play off each other.
The bare-boned simplicity of 10 Items or Less is more a strength than a liability.
[Brad Silberling is] Frank Capra without the edge.
...Strictly remainder-bin material.
Silberling has shot what feels like the first home movie to get a national release; it's too cute to criticize for anything other than its fluff.
While Freeman and Vega are mildly entertaining, the story is too safe and precious to elicit anything more than a passing sense of amusement.
Se trata de una comedia agridulce, con diálogos inteligentes y dos personajes bien esbozados, que descansa sobre todo en la química entre sus dos protagonistas.
A Hollywood hotshot played by Morgan Freeman, befriends a supermarket cashier just so he can get familiar enough with acting like somebody poor, to get into character for his next movie, and the effort fails miserably.

This is a dazzling piece of character study, set to a breezy, charming tone.
The laid-back film is mostly easygoing talk, but Freeman makes you believe this self-effacing superstar genuinely enjoys the company of everyone he meets...
filled with tiny moments that are instantly amusing, then immediately forgotten when the movie's over.
It's ultra low-key as only indie films can be, but there's enough charm and warmth to fill the spaces left by the 'missing' action.
This slight piece of work, written and directed by Brad ilberling, has some amusing moments and thanks to the great chemistry between Freeman and Vega is perhaps more enjoyable than it should be.
...worth discovering, and it can be discovered by each person who watches it, no matter how many reviews are read, no matter how many friends see it and recommend it. It's just that kind of movie.
...Rachman's film makes the case that under the right circumstances anger and outrage and defiance are an art form unto themselves.
