Wayne I love finding these little treasures, surprise movies that somehow slip by unnoticed, most undeservedly. What I thought was going to be a background noise movie randomly selected on a movie channel fast became totally absorbing, humorous and touching at the same time. As we are dealing with an older generation, empathy comes not from relating to age, but the social situations presented from a common bond, and never forces the viewer to judge. It's not a lengthy journey in concept, the time of life the characters (and cast) was the keystone to the story of course, but it was not necessary to set up a background for each character, as they instantly became recognizable. I relished every scene with Brenda Vocarro and Dyan Cannon, movie magic together, but never lost interest for the rest of the ensemble. This film is endearing, funny, never beyond the realms of reality. Although I noticed other comments mentioning moments that were either not necessary or empty, these were mere interludes for me which helped build the anticipation of what will happen next. I think a viewers age is totally irrelevant towards this also. Well done cast, well done Susan. I would dearly love to see a sequel or new movie with the same cast. P.S. Dyan you look great, keep making more movies honey.

batmill It was refreshing to see older actors revealed as they really look. The acting was excellent, and the story entertaining though poignant. It was thoroughly enjoyed by three over-50 women. Brenda Vacarro is now a heavy-set woman. Dyan Cannon's face-lift is less than perfect, although her genuine sweetness shines through. Sally Kellerman bravely disrobes in front of the camera. Renee Taylor looks every bit her age. I would say the scenery is a good selling point for those seniors looking for a beautiful area in which to live, with activities a cut above the normal senior activities in most areas. It was not at all depressing, but a rather positive take on what life might be like for those over 60, with a good retirement package. There were plenty of laughs as well.

e-ratcliffe This movie is a love story and a comedy, but it is much, much more than that. It had a wonderful mix of personalities. It is about the reality of losing someone and coming through it a better person with a lot more of life to live.Not just for Over-60s, but it may help to be to really appreciate this film. I felt like I knew all these people...in fact, I felt like I was one of them.There was a very good write-up in AARP Magazine about the making of Boynton Beach...very interesting. Go see it...You'll laugh and cry at the same time.

jessie-39 We start all of our reviews with the following information. My wife and I have seen nearly 100 movies per year for the past 15 years. Recently, we were honored by receiving lifetime movie passes to any movie any time at no cost! So we can see whatever we want whenever we want. The point of this is that CRITICS count for ZERO. Your local critics or the national critics like Ebert are really no different than you or me. The only difference is that they get to write about the movie and are forced to see hundreds of movies whether they want to or not.Therefore, it is our belief that if you get your monies worth for two hours of enjoyment that is good enough for us! We NEVER EVER listen or read the critics. We only care about our friends and those who we know like the same things as us. Well enough about that.If you a Floridian as we are, the movie is simply a perfect representation of life in Southern Florida. A very poignant and sometimes funny movie with wonderful actors. If you 50+ you will love it.
