80 voglia di Brady

I don't know someone these reviews were expecting Oscar nominee performances in this movie- it was very clearly just going to be a fluffy cute movie. So with that being said, was it cute and fluffy? Yes. Did I giggle at some parts? Yes. Was it cheesy and unbelievable in many moments? Yes. Did I enjoy it? Yes. Would I watch it again? No. It was entertaining enough and definitely something you can put on while also doing chores around the house. Sally field and the lady with the short hairdo were my favorite. I'm definitely going to be the one with the short hairdo in my elder years lol anyway, if you don't go in with expectations of this being the funniest movie you've ever seen, you'll enjoy it.

When you put this movie on you can't expect to be getting some Tarentino style cinematic experience. It's not that and nor does it try to be. The only things that you can really grade it on are whether the jokes are decent and not overly obnoxious and whether there is somewhat of a story to follow.

In these two areas I would say it achieves its goal. It takes advantage of a good cast for these roles. They all feed off of the other quite well. As silly as it may be you start to root for the women to achieve their goal. Sure they stereotype the older female football fan a bit, but it's all in good fun. Not a perfect comparison but has a bit of The Hangover but with older people feel to it. Compared to most comedy films put out these days it at least made me laugh as I was rooting on the women. The ending isn't the greatest, but nor did it need to overextend its stay.

Overall, far more entertaining than I expected. Certainly a win for a free movie on the local public transit train.

From the trailers, I was expecting this to be a very obnoxious, clunky movie. I'm happily surprised to have been mostly wrong about that.

Yes, it is often melodramatic. Yes, it has a plot as thin as rice paper. Yes, it's directed and edited in a way that looks like a cheap made-for-tv movie.

But I didn't care. Because what handily saves this movie is the chemistry between its four aged-yet-still-talented actresses. They embody their characters distinctly and charmingly, and from the first few scenes I was thoroughly convinced of the authenticity of their friendship.

Their dynamic carries this lighthearted experience and makes it an engaging, and often legitimately hilarious, one.

I was the only young person in the audience earlier today, I'm 30 and still loved this so much! Despite any cheesiness if at all this movie is hilarious through most of it, heartwarming and very entertaining. I love how Sally Field is the only of the 4 leads that is 76 she's magnificent and so are the others Lilly Tomlin is among the best; all the old folks in the film have had outstanding careers over the years it's impressive they are have a lot of energy at their ages. No matter what people think of 80 for Brady it is pure fun entertainment for anyone and deserves at least above average ratings. Pretty much every scene is fun even when there's fails it is worth watching.

I was in one of those moods where I wanted to watch something, but I really didn't want to put must effort into what I was watching. I had seen 80 for Brady advertised, I love Sally Field, so I thought I would give it a go. I was not disappointed.

It is about 4 elderly women obsessed with American Football and Brady, who then decide to go to the Super Bowl. (Based loosely on a true story) I am not a huge fan of Jane Fonda) she is tolerable in this story, she always plays the same character in these films.

It was a fun, easy way to spend 90 minutes. There was a few laughs a long the way, it was enjoyable.
