a sweet, uneven dramedy; Ultimately, "Here Today" finds warmth in leads Billy Crystal and Tiffany Haddish, which then allows it to push past some tricky tonal and pacing problems; "Here Today" isn't exactly a perfect movie, but it has a lot of heart
a feel-good story about an unusual friendship and copious doses of comic shtick; it does provide some alternately amusing and touching moments, thanks largely to the heartfelt performances by Crystal and his co-star Tiffany Haddish
a charming film about love and legacies; Even if some of Billy Crystal's humor is starting to age a bit, Tiffany Haddish brings real freshness and unpredictability in this unique May-December friendship
"Here Today", as good as some of it is, is a watchable movie with a soft center. But it makes you very glad to see Billy Crystal take center stage again; Its view of the comedy world is tartly authentic, but as a buddy movie it's both winning and mushy
"Here Today" is a so-so movie, but it's one of Tiffany Haddish's better showcases; "Here Today" is a weird case -- not mediocre, not lukewarm, but genuinely bad and good, cringe-worthy and moving
