Fried Green Tomatoes is an engaging if sentimental tale, charmingly handled by producer-turned-director Jon Avnet and flawlessly acted by its four female stars.

It doesn't quite have the courage to face its own implications and so leaves the story that follows in a kind of blur apt to offend no one but equally incapable of moving anyone.
June 02, 2014
Directed and co-written by first-timer Jon Avnet, the episodic production manages to capture the fried-tomato flavor of the deep South without becoming too pushy or patronizing about it.
June 02, 2014
Fried Green Tomatoes is a cut above superficially similar 'women's pictures'.
June 02, 2014
Fried Green Tomatoes is a case of a film acted with such skill and conviction that glaring problems of narrative, pace and structure seem like minor slips.

It's a nice, pleasant celebration of friendship, but without much meat to chew on.

[A] clunky, fraudulent, yet apparently crowd-pleasing laugh-and-tear-jerker.
June 02, 2014
Fried Green Tomatoes is gosh-darned lovable, even if it does get downright sugary at times.
June 02, 2014
The movie never quite shakes its stiff, studied feel, just as the town of Whistle Stop never stops seeming the quaint creation of an art director.
June 02, 2014
Essentially a story about friendship between two pairs of women, then and now, it could be classified as an intelligent woman's picture, but this truly uplifting and gratifying movie can and should be enjoyed by all.

When a group of actors this gifted and lively tries so good-naturedly to deliver such an obvious message, the audience is left in the position of trying to stop a tidal wave. You may hate yourself for responding, but you're smothered before you know it.

The movie left me wishing its sterling cast -- including a radiant Jessica Tandy -- had been better served.
