Driving Lessons redheadedly adorable to the end." Peter Bradshaw of "The Guardian" rated the film three out of five stars and commented, "The movie looks like a lot of other things: "Driving Miss Daisy", "Harold and Maude", "Billy Elliot", "Acorn Antiques". It doesn't quite develop its own identity. And it's somehow inevitable that Dame Evie's hilarious swearing and opinionating fade away as sentimentality takes over. But it's a great turn from Julie Walters, and a likable film." The film earned $239,962 in the US and $990,633 in other markets for a total worldwide box office of $1,230,595.
