Reception
From the Vine was generally received positively by critics. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 75% of 24 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 6.0/10. The website's consensus reads: "A too-rare opportunity for Joe Pantoliano to shine in a leading role, From the Vine transcends its formulaic story with infectious warmth."[5] David Stratton, in The Australian, wrote that "Sean Cistera's film is, in its modest way, attractive enough. It doesn't aim very high, but its celebration of old traditions in a world where environmental concerns are being set aside in the name of progress is certainly welcome."[6] Conversely, Cath Clarke of The Guardian gave the film a negative review, describing it as "Eat Pray Love for wealthy male boomers: embarrassingly sincere and iffily patronising to its Italian characters."[7]
