Diner

I think it’s time to forgive Diner for being a product of its time and embrace it as the coming-of-age masterpiece it truly is.

Levinson never allows us to think that we know everything there is to know about these characters... Levinson doesn’t violate his characters by summing them up -- he understands that we never fully understand anybody.

All in all, Diner is a worthwhile dish, certainly the best thing Leo the Lion has had to roar about in some time.

It's a Levinson comedy-drama that gets pretty boring when it turns into an exercise in episodic conversations about adult everyday life, as flat as the surface of a restaurant table. [Full review in Spanish]
