A charming film directed by Kyle Marvin and inspired by the true story of four octogenarians who share a love for NFL quarterback Tom Brady. The movie features an all-star cast, including Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Sally Field, and Rita Moreno, who bring their combined two centuries of acting experience and awards to the screen. The film is produced by Tom Brady, who also appears in the movie as himself and adds a delightful touch to the film.
The movie follows Trish, Lou, Betty, and Maura, who decide to compete in a local radio contest for the chance to win four Super Bowl tickets to see their beloved Tom Brady in action. Each character is dealing with their own challenges, including heartbreak, cancer, grief, and the difficulties of aging, but they come together to embark on a wild adventure. The movie showcases the strong bond between these friends, who have been there for each other for 16 years, and highlights the idea that they have nothing left to lose and are more willing to take risks than those two generations younger.
The film is written by Emily Halpern and Sarah Haskins, who bring a fast-paced, fun-filled story to the screen. The ensemble scenes are highlights, with each actor shining in their solo moments. Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin continue to sparkle in their chemistry as friends, and Sally Field and Rita Moreno bring depth and humor to their characters. The film is a celebration of friendship and the idea that it's never too late to live life to the fullest.
