Wonderful Movie

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

I don't know why many people didn't like it: It's a comedy! A well done comedy! These 4 women are incredibly funny and are able to lead the storyline (a very simple one) without making it too much boring. It was exactly what I expected. Of course it's not a Oscar movie or something like that but it never wanted it to be. One hour and a half well spent!

This tiresome and ineffectual female friendly romantic comedy fails because the target audience that includes my wife was more busy looking at her Facebook notifications rather than watching the film. I think the script was knocked off by a computer artificial intelligence software which was programmed to write a movie that older women might want to watch.All I can say is that the computer needs to be re-programmed.This film has four Oscar winners. Diane (Diane Keaton) is ditzy, afraid to fly and widowed after 40 years of marriage. Vivian (Jane Fonda) is a hotel tycoon who prefers short term relationships without marriage.Carol's (Mary Steenburgen) marriage needs spicing up. Sharon (Candice Bergen) is a Judge whose ex husband has got engaged to a much younger woman. The book club meets regularly and their latest novel is 50 Shades of Grey which leads the women to seek fulfilment from men. Diane meets a nice and wealthy airline pilot (Andy Garcia.) Vivian hooks up with an old flame from four decades ago (Don Johnson.) Sharon tries out internet dating and meets a date (Richard Dreyfuss.) I did note that all three actors are younger than their respective co-stars, even Dreyfuss.This is a lazily plotted and tedious film. It has bland characters, hard to believe and wastes the talent on screen.

Funny movie with a great cast. Enjoy the movie without taking it too serious. I think Keaton's character truly shows the struggle an aging parent goes through when trying to balance family with a new life in your later years.

Four elderly friends are poorly introduced with a verbal description and not by building character. The women are somewhat diverse, about as much as four white California women can be. They are all part of a book club. When one of the members introduces poorly written "mommy porn" as the next book, they all want to have sex. The film then becomes as interesting and exciting as old people having sex. I thought it was a waste as a relationship film considering the caliber of the stars that was in it. Terribly filmed airplane scene. Was that the 1950's where they played the background on screen behind cockpit? One F-word I recall. Sexual themes. No nudity.
