Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

The Worst Film Ever

hyped garbage

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

I grew up watching Burt Reynolds, Clint Eastwood, Frank Sinatra and all the greats. For me, this movie touched me in a special way. Growing old, looking back, yearning for the treasures of youth, the mistakes we make, the ones we lost. It hits home. Thank you, Mr. Reynolds. Thank you...

Anyone my age would have grown up watching Burt Reynolds in Deliverance, The Longest Yard, Smokey and the Bandit and Hooper to name a few of the really good movies he made.For me this is up there with the best he has ever made, I went in with a bit of trepidation, not really knowing what to expect considering some of the movies he has been in of late were nothing to write home about. This is not one of them, it is very well done and had me glued to the screen basically from start to finish.Really good backup from Chevy Chase, Clark Duke and a superb performance from Ariel Winter make this a movie worth watching. The chemistry between Burt Reynolds and Ariel Winter makes this one of those movies you have to see more than once. Watching an older, much wiser man whose body has been aged by time and experience conversing with a younger, cockier version of himself was brilliant to watch.I felt all of the cast did a really good job, but this movie definitely belongs to Burt Reynolds, this is Burt at his dramatic best.Without a doubt a movie worth seeing more than once.

I really, really, enjoyed this film. I was a teenager when Burt Reynolds was at his pinnacle. There was no one "cooler" or more charismatic than this movie star. His appearances on Carson are legendary. He was funny, charming, and unbelievably good looking. His wit and self-deprecating humor endeared him to the masses. I know this is certainly not autobiographical, because Burt is still working, but I have to say I fully connected with what Adam Rifkin was creating. I found the acting and story telling wonderful. The interaction with the the Vic of today with his matinee idol self in some of his older movies was perfection. I've been reading both user's and critic's reviews of this film and I have to say if you are not of a "certain age" you're really not going to fully get it.

Well written, well acted and not anymore "breaking the fourth wall" than can legitimately be expected for the "wink and a nod" Vic Edwards (Single syllable first name, Two for the second) thinly veiled hommage to Reynolds' career arc. I suspect he's neither as impoverished as Edwards is made to appear, and one would sincerely hope not. I didn't really care for the "Bandit" movies, but Machine, Deliverance and any number of others are TRUE Classics. Note to Hollywood: Please, don't remake them...thank you...
