Golden Exits

The concept and characters dynamics kept me watching but the dialogue was terrible. They somehow got this solid cast to deliver this content in a bizarre Room level fashion. Dude, next time get a writer that has a little closer handle on reality.

I wanted so badly to like this. The cast... My goodness. Emily Browning, Mary Louise Parker, Lily Rabe, Chloë Sevigny, Ad-rock, Schwartzman. Come on. What a lineup.

But even they couldn't save this movie. All I saw were a bunch of unhappy women wondering about their husband's attention to them and if said husbands were cheating.... or unhappy women wishing they had men, as they are just sooo unhappy being alone. As a bonus, you also get to watch unhappy men seeking validation and attention that apparently their successful and beautiful wives can't provide. All this displayed through boring and unrealistic dialog and actions.

You're going to line up a cast of badass women and then place them in these surface level roles? Really? An absolute waste.

This movie wanted to be profound and intertwined but missed both of those goals by a mile. It really is a shame.

This film tells the story of a man with a history of infidelity, who hires a young woman as an assistant. The dynamics at home changes dramatically.

I'm not sure why the film is titled as such, as the title does not seem to be connected to the story. However, that does not stop me from finding the story engaging. It portrays complex human emotions well. It has many recognisable faces as well.

Pretentious, over-written diarrhea. Yet another Woody Allen wannabe, peudo-sophisticated, verbose snooze fest.

I see three main reasons to see a movie, to be entertain, to learn something or to feel something. Miraculously, the movie manage to do neither. There's no character development. There's a plethora of characters who's live seems to be impacted by the arrival of the young australian but the end of the movie not one has changed, not one has learn something. The only impact she has finally is in their dialogue. I have a hard time constructing any argument so here is the bullet points :

• the music is flat
• the image is boring
• there's a lot of great actor but no great acting
• most of the dialogues are movie dialogues, not people dialogues.

In summary a very disappointing little boring movie. This is the kind of movie which does'nt serve any purpose.
