Bill Burr, Bobby Cannavale, and Bokeem Woodbine in Old Dads (2023)

Review by notom-23012

Old Dads

10/10

IT'S THE TRUTH !!!

This film expresses every sentiment I feel and, rather more vocally express, as a 64 year old man. Looking around at this current iteration of humanity leaves me shaking my head in despair or livid with anger... often both.

I have, in the last 10 years, met a variation of every single character portrayed here - Simp, Wimp, Karen... et al.

This Movie is a beautiful and accurate portrayal of life and a stunning depiction of a culture in crises.

Bill Burr is superb in his portrayal of a man watching every value, every hero and the family he loves being subverted and alienated by passive-aggressive weaklings who have zero respect for personal space, history and the hard work that enables them to exist in our modern society.

Bobby Cannavale - an excellent and underrated actor - is awesome as the 'simp' who finally grows a pair and ants to lead by example.

Bokeem Woodbine - another underrated actor - is excellent, portraying the man who knows he's made mistakes... missed out on time with his kids but still tries to connect.

In summation: The film is a genuine representation of what life is like for Men over 40 - we're the target for every 'broad' accusation; we're all hateful, bigoted, racist, homophobic, trans-phobic... et al But - at the end of the day - we got things done. We built the cities, roads, bridges, railways, invented lights, telephones, the Internet,... everything you'll use to curse us with, while enjoying those luxuries.
