Going in Style

I was looking forward to this film quite a lot because of the cast, but it failed to live up to my expectations. The writing was as shallow as lake Balaton even though the theme had a lot of potential. Well, it was a flop and the film was incredibly draggy and predictable. The three stars go to the three gentlemen in the lead roles and the immortal Ann-Margret. (29/08/2017)

A pretty nice story that highlights the problem of today's retirees. The acting is spot on, especially Michael Caine is excellent, but I didn't like the humour and the pace is rather tepid. It's not the ideal type of film I seek out, but it's okay for one viewing. 60% (15/07/2017)

Going in Style is a relaxed comedy outing with a tremendous cast whose central three stars are clearly thoroughly enjoying their time on screen. The whole thing goes down a path which is probably quite predictable, however it is still really entertaining in spite of that and is quite funny too, so the time goes by very quickly. If you want to just relax it is a perfect movie. (07/10/2021)

I loved the old-timer gang in this movie. Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Alan Arkin and Christopher Lloyd are exactly the people this movie is worth watching for. Other than that, it’s a good old bank heist movie which are a dime a dozen. I don’t mean that in a bad way, it just could’ve used a little bit more fun. This way the grandpas enjoyed a little bit of adrenaline with a moral subtext, but that’s about it. Similar comedies tend to be more amusing than this… (31/08/2018)

This trio simply could not disappoint. They are all such great actors, and with the addition of others who appear here, this simply had to be a film that would entertain the audience, impress them, but above all, allow them to empathize with the characters and their behavior. It happened, and I'm leaving with a pleasant experience from watching it. (29/08/2017)
