Old Man Jackson

I can't understand why this was rated so high unless the ratings are filled with bots or schills. Low budget, bad acting, weak plot, and way too long. My wife and I love classic comedys and we thought we'd give this a try. I wished I'd looked to see that there were only 71 reviews before I started.

Loved this movie! It's rare to find an indi movie to actually make me laugh. Even though the movie was longer than your average movie, it was entertaining enough to keep my ADHD engaged. So while it's impossible for me to sit through anything, I didn't even get up for the bathroom. I especially thought the ending was hilarious. And the editing and camera work was great work! I think that was some of the best parts. It was so cool to see such excellent work for an independent movie. There are blockbuster movies with less effort than I saw with this movie. I'm showing this too all my film major friends to watch for inspiration and appreciation!

I haven't laughed this hard at a movie in such a long time. It's honestly a shame that films like this are so hard to come by these days. There's a real need for more family-friendly comedies that are genuinely funny and heartwarming, without the usual forced agendas that seem to dominate modern films. What really stood out to me was how refreshing it was to watch something that focused purely on humor and fun, without trying to push any social or political message. Old Man Jackson, in particular, reminded me of the classic charm found in Steve Martin's films-witty, clever, and full of heart. It was so well-balanced in its humor, with a sense of nostalgia and timelessness. I truly believe Old Man Jackson has the potential to become a beloved classic over time, and I really hope it gets the recognition it deserves. We need more films like this, ones that focus on pure entertainment and quality comedy, and that don't feel the need to align with today's trends or political climate. This film feels like a breath of fresh air in an era where genuine, family-friendly comedy is becoming harder to find. Well done! Bravo!

Innocent and light hearted, off beat without taking itself serious, minor continuity questions, but none the less a simple elegant bad day comedy that speaks of a bygone, Stoogesesque day.

David Born and Kathy Garver shine as a long suffering couple. The film hits its notes well.

And director Johnny Ray truly shines as lovelorn Buford probably the best subplot of the entire film.

And let's not for get that this film was shot during the height of the hardest times to meet, and be around folks, and that if not grit, determination, hard work and skill the film would have never been finished.

I'd give it twenty stars or more if I could,

All the actors and Actresses were on point. It was very funny, David Born did an Awesome job acting, he made me laugh so much. For me to pick the one of the best part of the Movie is when he ran into the Mafia guys, I loved that scene but all and all a GREAT MOVIE for a family to Watch !!! Arthie Pasquale from the Sapranos was Awesome, Butch Patrick Awesome, Kath Garver was excellent in this. The Movie was close to 2hrs long but it was full of comedy I just couldn't stop laughing. The Mafia guy with the bald head was so good at his part I think his name is Joe Di Bari. Now the 2 Cops Tony Ferro & Robert LaSardo where also excellent.
