Review of Going in Style (1979) by Compi24 — 17 Apr 2017

Like many other recent "going-of-age" films ("Last Vegas," "Hope Springs," "The Intern," etc.) Zach Braff's update to 1979's "Going In Style" is about as safe and as innocuous as you can get, almost to the point where I can neither recommend nor advise against seeing it.

It's one of those well-meaning movies that just seems to exist without venturing above or below par. And, while it's fantastic to see the three legendary lead actors bantering and ribbing each other onscreen for a healthy running time, I can't help but feel that there could have been a more comedically adept screenplay in the mix here.

Overall though, not an incredibly vapid experience, just one that could have delivered on its premise much more effectively, in my opinion.
