Sentiment: positive

Sentiment: positive

Review: city by the sea swings from one approach to the other , but in the end , it stays in formula -- which is a waste of de niro , mcdormand and the other good actors in the cast 
Sentiment: negative

Review: 's a sweet , laugh-a-minute crowd pleaser that lifts your spirits as well as the corners of your mouth 
Sentiment: positive


Review: probably the best case for christianity since chesterton and lewis .
