At the Liberty:"A Man Called Otto"

DAYTON—Otto (Tom Hanks) is a grumpy isolated widower with staunch principles, strict routines and a short fuse, who gives everyone in his neighborhood a hard time as he watches over it like a hawk. Just as it seems like he’s finally given up on life, an unlikely and reluctant friendship develops with his new neighbors. Little by little, Otto undergoes a subtle transformation... but is he really capable of change? The movie is adapted from Fredrik Backman’s somewhat comical, but moving, New York Times Bestseller “A Man Called Ove” - with the main character being renamed to reflect the shift to an American setting.

Rotten tomatoes critics give this a 69% favorable rating, but audiences thought better of it and rate it at 97%. This movie is rated PG=13 (mature thematic material involving graphic details of multiple suicide attempts, and language). Many reviewers noted that this movie is probably not suitable for children under 13-15. It has a runtime of 126 minutes.
