Reception
Critical response
On the
Gary Goldstein of the Los Angeles Times called it "largely engaging" but that "there’s a lot of been-there, done-that going on."[8] David Rooney of The Hollywood Reporter says the film "pulls us in eventually, delivering its share of poignant insights and melancholy reflections, even if it does all feel a tad familiar."[9] Patrick Bromley, reviewing the home video release, stated that while "it traffics in the familiar, 10 Years is not a movie of gigantic revelations. It is a movie of small truths, usually well observed."[5]
