Moving On is yet another tour de force for Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin, who once again prove that they are a force to be reckoned with. Read full review

Moving On is effortlessly intelligent in depicting the experience of being old. Even if you’re not there yet, you know intuitively that old age has very little to do with sitting in a rocking chair in perfect equanimity. It’s about living with the accumulation of things you did and things you didn’t do. Read full review

Not a great film, but Moving On is a pleasurable enough way to kill an hour and a half without regret. Read full review

Moving On is certainly not perfect, but it’s sincerely trying to be something more than your standard octogenarian farce. You might even be surprised by your own emotional investment in this rather trim film. Read full review

Moving On, a dark comedy written and directed by Paul Weitz, isn’t a great movie by any means, but it’s a pretty good one. It’s also a relief to see Fonda and Tomlin play women whose age is not discounted, but is also not disqualifying. Read full review

The film never lets these characters earn anything, despite everyone ending up moving on in Moving On. You’re advised to do the same, when it materializes as one of your viewing options. Read full review

For this film, Fonda plays a character headed to a college friend's funeral with the intention of killing her husband (Malcolm McDowell). Along the way she re-teams with her longtime friend (Lily Tomlin) and it becomes more about their relationship than the murder. The trailer makes it look like a comedy, but there are virtually no laffs, even though Tomlin's crusty attitude does make for some fun moments. The 2 women are working their typical types, so there's nothing new: Fonda's the beauty with issues, while Tomlin plays a lesbian. The duo's chemistry is the only thing that resonates in this film and they've done it much better before.… Expand
