Never Too Late - Es ist nie zu spät für die Liebe

Care home Jack Bronson mobilises his friends and former colleagues to escape the confines of the home, and complete a daring mission, a mission that he keeps close to his chest.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, very funny, quite moving, very, very nicely acted, some top notch performances throughout. Plenty of laughs, even daring to make the taboo subject of dementia quite amusing, it actually worked.

All I can say, is that I hope not all Australian care homes are like this one, nasty looking bouncers, staff medicating trouble makers, and barbed wire above the doors.

James Cromwell delivers a knockout performance, what a presence, Dennis Waterman also shows his true class.

Well worth seeing.

8/10.

Never Too Late - Reactions to this movie were mixed, so my expectations weren't high. However, I'm with those who really liked the movie. The first 15 minutes were outstanding. The pace did slow for a while but overall the movie was funny, moving and contained some great music from the 60s, which is ideal for the target audience. The acting is top notch and, while the storyline is a stretch, that's what makes for some great humour. Recommended for anyone who remembers the 1960s and the music of that era - and for anyone who enjoys great acting and humour.

This is a movie that will particularly appeal to Australians given its cast and setting location. The story is somewhat shallow but it's a fun movie. I think too many times people go to a movie and expect every movie to be a blockbuster. This is certainly not but it's a great date night flick for middle-aged couples glimpse ahead to what life may be like when your mind and body starts to fail. The movie generally is respectful of the ageing population but at the same time highlights the comical moments as well.

Mostly funny with some depression parts. Makes you never want to get old in Australia.

The story is simple and problematic, but it really doesn't matter , it is just good fun with a little message of how age creeps up on you. If nothing else - watch it for the pleasure of seeing our great actors mucking around.

Great fun.
