lvi. going in style (2017) - it's no masterpiece, nor is it aiming to be.  it's a film about 3 old lovable guys who are fleeced by the bank* & decide to take what they're owed back, despite the limitations that come with old age. simple, charming, effective, heartwarming. with the gravitas of seasoned morgan freeman & michael caine, the huge stars that mentor batman in their spare time, i have to admit it's alan arkin that won me over & stole the show for me. who'd have thought?  -------------------- * relatable to anyone who's ever taken a loan or mortgage when they see the interest subtotal... read more
