For every such moment there's a sappy montage or overt visual reference to Rossellini to cheapen the effect.

[A] familiarly snoozy romantic drama.

Top Critic

Though the film plays like late-era Woody Allen - not necessarily a good thing - and Goldberg's rambunctiousness is more annoying than liberating, there's a serious depth of feeling here.

The marital crisis at the movie's heart has lost its allegorical weight. Jane and Leonard are just another unhappy couple with problems that have nothing to do with the direction of Western civilization.

"And While We Were Here" is just good enough to pique your curiosity, but never quite good enough to captivate.

Top Critic

It's to Coiro's credit that no one emerges as a villain - and that, however painful, on the other side lies hope.
