4. Family Business movie review & film summary (1989) - Roger Ebert
The movie stars Sean Connery, Dustin Hoffman and Matthew Broderick as three generations of the same family, all touched one way or another by crime.
What does Sidney Lumet's "Family Business" want to be? A caper movie, or a family drama? I ask because the movie seems to pursue both goals with equal success

In New York City, Vito McMullen and his wife, Elaine, go to Passover dinner at his in-law’s home, where his twenty-two-year-old son, Adam, is questioned about dropping out of college three months short of graduating with a Master’s degree in biology. During dinner, Adam receives a telephone call from his grandfather, Jessie, and Vito wonders why his estranged father is calling his son. When Adam confesses that Jessie needs bail money after getting into a bar fight with an off-duty police officer, Vito warns Adam that Jessie is a criminal and will only disappoint him. At Jessie’s bail hearing, the old man makes excuses for his actions. After paying his bail, Adam becomes reacquainted with his Scottish grandfather, and asks his opinion about participating in a scam offered by a former college professor, that promises to make him a million dollars. Adam and Jessie invite Vito to join them at Doheny’s bar, and Vito insults his father for his unapologetically criminal lifestyle. When

10. Family Business - cinema - VPRO Gids
Verenigde Staten 1989. Komedie van Sidney Lumet. Met o.a. Sean Connery, Dustin Hoffman, Matthew Broderick, Rosanna DeSoto en Luis Guzmán. Waar te zien?
Sean Connery, Dustin Hoffman en Matthew Broderick spelen grootvader, vader en zoon die gezamenlijk een inbraak beramen. De (spannende) klus doet er eigenlijk niet zoveel toe. Het gaat Lumet om de soms moeizame verhouding tussen drie generaties sympathieke criminelen. Connery is het leukst. Hij spot met smaak over de lengte van zijn zoon (Hoffman is een 'onderdeurtje'), hij geeft kleinzoonlief college over het verschil tussen legale en moreel verwerpelijke diefstal (van andermans ellende profiteer je niet) en hij vertelt tussen de bedrijven door over het vrolijke, semi-criminele verleden.
