“Sticky Notes” (**1/2 out of four) was a fairly well-done family melodrama about a grouchy father (Ray Liotta) who is dying of terminal cancer and how this affects his strained relationship with his self-destructive daughter (Rose Leslie) but that they try to mend their difficult relationship before it is too late. Strong performances by both Leslie and Liotta boost this uneven story which ranges from effective and incisive to meandering and unpleasant at times. Still, a worthwhile showing for writer-director Amanda Sharp and a good actor’s showcase overall.
