Like the film's original title, Old Timers, it's emotionally charged, and viewers who imagine it as a hot gangster shootout will be disappointed, and the film's hottest scenes are just a few shots fired. Among them, this is a drama with some literary style. When it comes to "literary style", I always think of the green years, but when a few old guys get together, they nag a few words about the past and miss the old days. Brilliant, with a nostalgic sigh, it is also full of nostalgic literary style.
The three old guys who starred in this film all have a lot of backgrounds. Al Pacino, Christopher Walken, and Alan Arkin have each won the Oscar for acting awards, and may also receive several in the near future. Unclear Lifetime Achievement Award. Although the film has a slow feeling of exhaustion from beginning to end, just like the old guys are no longer flexible legs, this may be the effect the director wants, the focus of this film is on the most ordinary life of the characters, the time span It was only about two days ago, without flashing back to the past decades to shape the former style, and without telling the brilliance of the comeback after many years, many audiences' expectations will definitely be in vain, but they find enough surprises in places they didn't expect.
The tired rhythm with very light emotions, it seems that this film hardly has any climax, when I watch it, I think this is a bad movie, but after watching it, I slowly taste the taste of the movie, and the ending is indeed It's the finishing touch. Few movies can stop abruptly at the climax. This film does it. Personally I think it's just right. The only main line of the film will develop to the end of the climax. After "THE END", maybe the director didn't think about how to end it, maybe the ending is not perfect no matter what, it is better not to end it. It's not a movie made for fans of "Fast and Furious", this movie is made for audiences who like "The Godfather".
