‘Nonnas’ Review: Vince Vaughn And All-Star Grandmother Cast In Netflix’s Heartfelt Foodie Comedy


A review of 'Nonnas' , with Vince Vaughn in the true story of a man trying to build a restaurant with grandmas as the cooks to honor his own family

A well-cast Vince Vaughn, miles away from his Swingers and Wedding Crashers past, plays the real life dreamer Jody Scaravella (who goes by Joe or Joey), born and living in Brooklyn, who works for the MTA and has always been a loving son to his mom. The fun of the film is watching Joe navigate every pitfall along the way, as well as being true to his vision of creating a loving monument to family, and his mom and Nonna just keeping alive the image of their magic ability to make unforgettable meals. Cast: Vince Vaughn, Lorraine Bracco, Talia Shire, Brenda Vaccaro, Joe Manganiello, Drea de Matteo, Campbell Scott, Michael Rispoli, Linda Cardellini, Susan Sarandon.
