What’s Hot

  • Among the four veteran superstars, Morgan Freeman steals the show. He is especially charming when he puts on the dancing shoes married man of forty years allowed to cheat by his wife, Joanna Gleason in Vegas.
  • Kevin Kline comes a close second and is incredibly funny playing the role of a married man of forty years who he has a free-pass from his wife to cheat on her that weekend in Vegas.
  • Michael Douglas and Robert De Niro play their roles with the ease and class expected out of them. Their interactions with the beautiful 30 year old Mary Steenburgen have come out very well on screen.
  • The movie offers a lot just by allowing the Fabulous Four to enjoy themselves and is a sure stress buster for the audience.

What’s Not

  • The content is ordinary and something that you have seen in countless movies such as The Hangover series with just the senior actors replacing the young guns.
  • The writer, Dan Fogleman, (Crazy, Stupid, Love), and director, Jon Turteltaub (National Treasure), don’t live up to their previous endeavors, letting the movie drag when trying to bring some seriousness and sentiment into the script.
