I love this movie. It got lost in a run of very successful films from the 1980's thanks to the Brat Pack and John Hughes, but it is well worth your time. One of Al Pacino's best acting performances.

Arthur Hiller was the king of feel-good cheese, and Author! Author! is so textbook that it might as well have been called Arthur! Arthur! The ending says it all... it's a rave review! Cue the corny music. I give it one star because Pacino delivers a brave performance and there's some decent child acting. How ironic, though, that a film called "Author! Author!" has such a horrendous screenplay!

Probably as close as we will ever see Al Pacino in a "family film." A funny and yes very warm comedy. I've always thought they could do a TV spinoff of this film.

Wow, this was a bit of a mess actually. Al Pacino plays a playqright who is going through a bit of a midlife crisis. His wife leaves him, he's schlupping his lead actress in his new play, has 5 hungry mouths to feed, and he can't get the 2nd act quite right. Now, for the purpose of this film to succeed, Al must resolve everything right? Right. Unfortunately, he doesn't as everything just sort of mopes along, some plots are forgotten (Dyan Cannon is totally wasted here) and everything is mishmashed. Happy ending though, but even that ends awkwardly. Avoid.

Very similar in feel to Kramer Vs. Kramer, with more laughs...and more kids. Not as well written, though.
