An aged pianist (Jerry Lewis) learns that his recently deceased wife (Claire Bloom) may have cheated on him in the early years of their marriage.

Critics Consensus

Max Rose marks Jerry Lewis' long-overdue return to the screen -- and is unfortunately less than memorable in almost every other respect.

1.5/5

The script is replete with filler inserted in the name of "real life": bad jokes and silly riddles, spontaneous songs, and improvised scenes in which conversations go around in circles.

Max Rose, and Jerry Lewis, deserve a better movie than this one.

2.5/4

The movie gains resonance from its look at what may be the final years of a movie legend.

3/5

Max Rose is a movie that scoffs at the notion of aging gracefully.

Max Rose adds little to the end-of-life theme, but it offers old-timers in a realistic look at old age, old love, and family affairs.

Loved it. For anyone with an elderly parent or grandparent in their life, this is life. It's sad and often quiet reflective moments, and getting old isn't always pretty, sometimes families have to take over. Now that Jerry has left us, it's a fitting last movie.

I hate this sappy, wrist-slit of a bore. A sad old man learns that his late, beloved wife was cheating on him, and he spends the movie getting sadder. Sure it's authentic, but to what end? What is the message here that serves any sort of meaningful purpose? An empty downer and a tonal mess...Jerry Lewis deserved so much better.

Not a good film in the least. Had a LOT of potential and had a very strong third act, but the emotional weight is non-existent due to a crappy script, mediocre acting and poor direction with no clear vision. Full review here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtRozwJk6UQ
