    Four old actors are brought together to fill out a plot that should have been destroyed many years before. If you get teary and nostalgic when drunk, this is the film for you. Otherwise avoid it.

    Some humor, just seemed too "hollywood" though. It was a cookie cutter movie that didn't provide any new provacative storyline. Donald Sutherland was stellar though.

    This movie has been done so many times that it gets to the point where you want to scream. If the director wanted us to squirm in our seats, he succeeded greatly.

    The plot is too implausible to rank with "Unforgiven," but, oh, what a fun ride.

    A lighthearted action adventure starring four of the most likable guys on the planet.

    Poorly engineered: lurchingly paced, the dramatic conflicts duct taped together.
