I loved this movie. I loved how Sally Field immersed herself in playing Doris. Her character was a breath of fresh air and a reminder to not let the past stop you from being in the present.

Brilliant, brilliant performance by Sally Field. She should be awarded somehow for this film. Liked her since The Flying Nun and Murphy's Romance. Glad to see Tyne Daly, miss her since Cagney and Lacey.

I absolutely loved this movie. Sally Field is wonderful as the obsessed, stylish and neurotic Doris. I also thought Tyne Daly was terrific. This movie is charming, funny , and heartfelt. Maybe you have to be of a certain generation to…

Wow...this movie is bad - as in B-A-D. Honestly tho, I picked it up cause Beth Berhs from 2 Broke Girls is in it but she only had like maybe 10 minutes in the film. WHAT? And Sally Field's performance, I thought, was just dull. True, a lot…

I'm glad I watched this movie. There are people like Doris in our world, male & female. I don't find it demeaning but realistic. Sally Fields makes this movie quite fun.

All of the humor in this film hinges on the mockery of an old cat lady...an old maid...Sally Fields. If you can accept the premise that an older, single, childless woman is hilarious by her very existence, then you might like the film.

I'll be honest here. The best thing about this movie is Sally Field. Her performance was fantastic and I really think she deserves a Best Actress award. She was amazing. That being said, I didn't like this movie as much as I wanted to and…

Rated 6/10. Sally Field is quite good in this. The rest of the performances are fairly forgettable, and I found the plot to be a bit lacking. Still, definitely worth a look.

This will be added to one of my all time favorites. Great cast and Sally Fields is fabulous. This is a real sleeper...slipped out of the theaters very fast and so glad I caught it on DVD.

This romantic/drama is about an older woman who is trying to get the attention of a younger man at her office. While watching this movie, I kind of felt like some scenes were significantly cringier than they needed to be, with Doris Miller…

Sally Field is brilliant in this! An adorable, hilarious and heartwarming film.

Very funny--I laughed out loud--but poignant in story line as well

Picked it up as a 'chick flick' and was surprised that my husband loved it, too!

Sally Fields played her part to perfection. A really funny movie...

Enjoyable movie. Sally Field is perfect as Doris. Very well acted, funny and sad movie about an aging woman who has lived with and taken care of her mother until mother passed away.

VERY GOOD 2015 film with mature Sally Field glowing in her quirky comedy role. Lots of fab costuming, and more...

Very quirky and cautionary tale about lost opportunities.

I like Sally Field, but she must have been desperate to take this role. In the end, I felt I had wasted an hour and a half of my life. It might be appropriate for an old maid who is going through a mid-life crisis.

Pitiful.

I really liked this movie. All though it seems super unlikely that a woman of Doris'age may actually believe that a young handsome co-worker may be attracted to her, the supporting story made it believable. Full of quirky characters whom…

One word for this movie, gross!! I couldn’t even get half way through it.

At least I can say that I have watched the movie from beginning to end without pushing the "eject" button. The Desperate Old "Spinster" may be a good fit for the title.

It was sweet and sad- at times uplifting and at times a bit depressing. The acting was great and the story line was very enjoyable.
