Title aside, Winter Solstice is set in the spring and summer of a small, pretty, and dull Northeastern town. Anthony LaPaglia eases comfortably into the role of a widower anxious about his two teenage boys growing up and slipping away from him in Josh Sternfeld's low-key drama. While the eldest (Aaron Stanford) yearns for something more, or at least something different, his younger brother (Mark Webber) is the poster child for underachievers: Unfocused and distracted, wound up yet unmotivated. Sternfeld creates a lovely texture of naturalism and the boys create a convincing brotherly vibe in shared glances and private jokes, but the lulling rhythms take over the film, even when Allison Janney arrives with her low-key nervous energy. --Sean Axmaker

 Shallow and Awkward November 1, 2008
I should really learn to never judge a book (or movie) by its cover. The laurels this film got from critics as well as film festivals just shows how out of touch they really are. This has got to be the worst movie I've seen since "About Schmitdt". The plot was thin, the characters were never really developed, and the direction was poor. Too bad, in the hands of the right director it could have been quite good.
BORING!!!! July 1, 2008
I bought this title hoping for an American take on Rosamunde Pilcher's novel of the same name and I was soooooooooooo disappointed. I have not ever watched the entire movie.

I ordered this product thinking it was based on Rosamunde Pilcher's inter Solstice. It was not! What a drag! The film ended and I thought I had fallen asleep during it and decided to watch it again. I did not make any sense.

Rosamunde Pilcher wrote a wonderful story called WINTER SOLSTICE. This bleak film bears no resemblance to her story and should not be advetised as such. I was vastly disappointed!!!
