Nonnas (2025) - Starring Vince Vaughn, Lorraine Bracco, Susan Sarandon, Brenda Vaccaro, Talia Shire & Joe Manganiello

Oh look a shot of the four women walking together in slow motion. How original.

oh hell yeah, i am watching this!

the trailer is NOT promising.

They offered Madonna the 4th lead but she was offended and hung up.

Where the white women at?!

[quote] They offered Madonna

This phrase has not been uttered in the movie biz for at least 15 years.

Susan Sarandon's plastic surgery needs a Smithsonian exhibit.

She looks incredible!

Also starring Drea de Matteo and Linda Cardellini.

The multinational original is much more interesting than tired stereotypes

I was good until Susan Sarandon appeared.

I was good until Billy Joel sang.

Drea de Matteo is a tRump lover, fuck her

Is there a homosexual son involved?

I'm surprised they didn't shoe-horn in some diversity and hope no one would notice that one of the Italian-American grandmothers was Black.

There’re all Black

How did Joe Manganiello ever find time in his busy game show schedule to film this?

Nonnas watch party on DL - 05/09.

[quote]They offered Madonna the 4th lead but she was offended and hung up.

You should've heard Catherine Zeta-Jones's response.

I guess Nicole Kidman was too busy.

And there probably wasn't a role for an actress playing Vince Vaughn's daughter.

The movies never get Italian-Americans right. Maybe Marty (1955), not since.

Watched with my mom. Happy Mother's Day.

Lorraine Bracco is Gruff Nonna. Brenda Vaccaro is Earthy Nonna. Talia Shire is Mousy Nonna. And Susan Sarandon is Va-Va-Voom Nonna. All pros but Brenda steals it.

No shirtless scenes with Joe M, unfortunately.

This is one of those movie restaurants with four chefs, no sous or prep cook, no servers or bussers (really). The kitchen set on "It's a Living" is more realistic.

And, yes, if you're allergic to things like four older women walking toward the camera in slow motion while "These Boots Are Made For Walking" comes on the soundtrack, rent Salò or something.

You lost me at Vince Vaughn.

Lorraine Bracco I like.

Joe Man Jello!

Miz Sarandon must really have to pay her mortgage these days.

That looks horrific.

Is Vaccaro's casting really just stealth tampon product placement?

Lorraine Bracco is a treasure and I would give anything to spend a boozy lunch with her where she just gossips for two hours

New York Times pan.

...corn-filled gabagool...From the homily-stuffed script (“food is love,” “beautiful is a feeling”) to the relentlessly on-the-button soundtrack (please god, no more “Funiculì Funiculà”), “Nonnas” serves up ethnic comedy on a platter of ham and cheese.

Vince Vaughn is a Trumper.

Ugly no-eyed Sopranos chick is a Trumper.

Saggy-tittied Mc-Bug Eyes is a Trumper as far as I’m concerned since she helped him get elected the first time.

Fuck this movie.

You sound deranged R30. Take your pills and get out of that dirty ancient house, find some normal women to hang out with, breathe some fresh air. Go back home and please, stay the fuck off gay men’s discussion forums. You politics fraus are literally the scourge of society.

I enjoyed this more than I thought I would.

R14, one of the nonna's reveals how "diverse" she is (diversity is more than just skin color, have you not learned that YET??).

r7 Susan Sarandond does look amazing. She's 78 years old!

Brenda Vacccaro is great as is Talia Shire. I've never been a huge Linda Cardellini fan, but I really like her in this!

Joe Mango Jello is fine!

It's about a bunch of Bachagaloops?

Madonn!

Joe is a brother.

R31 People who are so privileged they can ignore politics are the scourge of society.

I have to turn away when Vince Vaughn pops up on screen, his gigantic head looks like some bike pustule about to explode.

I can't look at Susan Sarandon.

Love Brenda Vacaro...why isnt she in more things.

CUNT

I was wondering when R39 would show up.

[quote]Love Brenda Vacaro...why isnt she in more things.

Because Brenda Vaccaro keeps stealing her roles.

Vaughn is a Trumper? Interesting. I hadn’t heard that before. How unfortunate.

Agree with the other commenters that Susan Sarandon looks incredible. Fuck. I need the names of her medspa people.

R37 = Deb Messing

R39 = Also Deb!

Trumper Vince Vaughn. Sorry, it's not a hard pass.

I’M ITALIAN!!!

R31 I have you blocked. Sounds like you've licked Trump's taint before this thread and you keep on lickin'. It's not "deranged" to not support Trumpers. In fact, it's the thing to do in polite society. Now, head on over to Elmer's in Palm Springs for the early bird special. I hear the owner is a Trumper, too!

I liked it.

I do think the script could've been punched up a little more.

We've just started watching it. It's pretty good so far.

This actually looks good.

As an Italian-American, I'm tired of all the tired tropes in these movies. Cannoli is not the only Italian pastry Italians eat (but they're served in every movie / TV series featuring Italians). Same with lasagna and spaghetti and meatballs. We all don't talk like Sylvester Stallone.

Joe Manganiello was the standout in the movie - he should've been the lead, not the horrible Vince Vaughn, who has no talent. (At least Joe Manganiello shows emotion when he's acting). Talia Shire was very good and gave an honest performance. The other three were stereotypes, as usual.

Overall, C -.

Does Brenda ((((((WHEEZE))))))) between every ((((((WHEEZE))))))) line?

[quote]Love Brenda Vacaro...why isnt she in more things.

She's 85, but she has had a full career on stage, screen and TV.

Linda Cardellini looks great, she’s 50, Vince Vaughn is 55, but they look exactly 5 years apart in age; I didn’t buy them as prom dates.

No thank you 😒

Any big Italian cocks in this besides Brenda’s?

[quote] We all don't talk like Sylvester Stallone.

Sly is Jewish. Not many people seem to know that. Jackie was Jewish.

Brenda gives the best interviews. Last year she talked about telling Faye Dunaway to go fuck herself after she was treating everyone on set like shit.

I thought Nonnas would be a a delightful romp, an ethnic version of a film starring Diane Keaton/Jane Fonda/Lily Tomlin.

It’s actually pretty depressing and shows the reality of get-out-of-our-neighbourhood locals.

[quote] I liked it. I do think the script could've been punched up a little more.

The problem with the film was the directing.

Apparently the restaurant was only frequented by friends and family. We didn’t see a single patron eat there. Not one meal being served to one of these friends and families. Until one of the women mentioned that, I assumed even they didn’t show up.

Brenda Vaccaro introduced Supergirl to Playtex Tampons!
