Review of All We Had (2016) by Sheila O'malley for RogerEbert.com — 09 Dec 2016
The adaptation (by Josh Boone and Jill Killington) lacks any inference, mystery, or discovery: it is all text. Any complexity that there may be is all on the surface. Problems are easily solved, since there's nothing left unsaid, or if something is left unsaid that Ruthie says it for us in the voiceover.
This makes for predictable viewing.
