sjganton - 30 June 2024 Best ever Brady don't retire, come back, you did great making this movie, my husband n I are seniors, we got really into this movie, great comedy and wow, the cast you had was great, please do another part 2. I was hoping it would have more serious illness, and the senior would be ok, needed more tears n excitement in it. But we will buy this movie, worth watching over again, I thought this was a great movie for young adults, I really got into it, the scam on tickets, I agree, it happens alot, loved the scene of eating hot food. She was hungry too. Seniors can eat hot food , we were raised on it. Great.
trinaboice - 27 October 2023 There are some cute jokes that mostly older people will laugh at. IN A NUTSHELL:
Some of Hollywood's top leading ladies come together to celebrate their friendship, aging gracefully, and cheering on their favorite football player. The story is about a group of friends who travel to the Super Bowl in order to meet NFL star Tom Brady.
The goofy flick was directed by Kyle Marvin. The writers were Emily Halpern and Sarah Haskins.
THINGS I LIKED:
The award-winning cast is adorable together and includes Jane Fonda, Lilly Tomlin, Rita Moreno, and Sally Field. Between the four leading ladies, they have 12 Oscar nominations and 5 wins! They have great chemistry together and look like they're having a blast. It's great to see older actresses still starring in movies.
Sally's character keeps reminding the others that she is NOT in her 80s. She tells them she's only 75, which was her real age at the time of filming the movie. She and Jane Fonda were both nominated for an Oscar at the same time; Sally won.
Jane Fonda's hair always looks incredible. In the movie, we see that they're all wigs.
Other celebrities make an appearance such as Patton, Billy Porter, Harry Hamlin, Sara Gilbert, Jimmy O. Yang, Glynn Turman, and Guy Fieri (Lilly Tomlin's character described him as a flaming hot Cheeto.)
You'll love seeing some of today's big football players interact with the cast: Rob Gronkowski.
Anyone would be so lucky to have friends like these who share a passion together.
We get to see old clips of Tom Brady playing football, as well as see him in the current day as a member of the cast. Even if you're not a Tom Brady fan or football fan, you'll still get a kick out of this loving tribute to true sports fans, as well as aging with grace and hope like the women in the movie.
There's a scene where one of the characters trades jerseys with Tom Brady. He makes a comment about how he can't find his, which is a reference to when his jersey was stolen in real life after a Super Bowl game.
There are some cute jokes that mostly older people will laugh at.
THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE:
The plot is paper thin and predictable.
