While this charming movie will be targeted to senior audiences, I hope younger generations check it out — as the humor and underlying messages are truly universal.

The geezer humor is just as funny here as it was in the original version of this film, which starred George Burns, Art Carney, and Lee Strasberg. I mean this as a compliment, although it’s, admittedly, a bit backhanded.

3 Legends in one funny movie! This movie is better than Last Vegas and The Bucketlist combined!! Going in Style demonstrates the strengths of both the legendary actors and Zach Braff as a director!!!!

Perfect movie. I had big fun watching this movie. Funny jokes. Story is amazing but still easy to understand (that is quite rare in movies). Only one thing that is so annoying is sound, dabing is perfect but the music. Music was good aswell, but the music was so loud and the dabing was so quiet. When there was scene only with music i had to lower the volume. Highly recommend.

Don’t think too much about the plot; it’s about as water-tight as a corporate-pension scheme. All three stars deliver exactly what you expect from them — nothing more, nothing new — but their onscreen familiarity is a strange comfort in itself.

With Caine, Freeman and Arkin, you know what you’re going to get. In Going in Style, it’s all you get.

The clichéd story wouldn’t even be an issue if the movie were enjoyable. But little works as humor or suspense or sentiment once the job is on.

This was a good movie for all ages! I HIGHLY recommend this movie for taking your parents or grandparents to. One of the funniest movies I've seen this year!!

Going in style was exactly what you’d expect from a bank heist - gone geriatric. It was very fun to watch and was light hearted, I would recommend to anyone. The banker is quite funny and the film even comes full circle as the young saves the old by the end. This isn’t a complex or difficult storyline, and I definitely laughed a few times. Very remniscent of “last vegas” and “the bucket list”. Some buddies trying to have fun with nothing left to lose as the end of life comes near. The main investigator did a great job, and so did the girl at the end. What a fun way to end a tale like this and bring everything together.

Pretty much what expexted, a low effort production with a throwaway script and wasted talent. Didnt know Zach Braff was responsible for this

very mediocre film. The story is not new, uninteresting, predictable and rather tedious. Humor on the verge is not funny. Watching this movie is quite difficult.
