Critic Reviews for 3 Generations
All Critics (42) | Top Critics (16) | Fresh (13) | Rotten (29)
"3 Generations" starts with a unique and intimate point of view, only to become yet another indie drama about the difficulties of motherhood.
"3 Generations" feels focus-grouped into existence, like its every development was fine-tuned to be as inoffensively on-message as possible in its treatment of trans issues.
3 Generations is contrived, but the heartfelt performances keep the threadbare material on track-witty, warm and wise.
This is a movie that derives most of its suspense on whether a piece of paper will be signed, not a strong basis for dramatic tension.
If you can look past the sitcom humor, that late-in-the-game melodrama and the usual cliche about the mature child in a family of immature adults, "3 Generations" does a few important things.
In the end, 3 Generations wants to to be about trans issues more than it really wants to live in them.
