Let's hope not, for a long time. While it's not a perfect movie, the 3 leads are so charismatic, they carry anything the movie throws at them. Some things may bit coincidental and may feel too convenient, but again you won't be thinking about that while watching the movie. You know a couple of things just by watching the movie and you can almost guess the "twists" entirely.

That still doesn't take away too much of the fun you can have while watching it. Dialog is nice and they play into the generation thing (social media, wordplay and of course limitations of age). But all in a really respectful way and yet still funny. If you like to have a good old time (no pun intended),you could do worse

"Going in Style" was a movie that debuted back in 1979. Now, 38 years later, Hollywood has done a remake of this comedy. I am not particularly a fan of remakes...and this one did nothing to change my opinion.

Three old men have just learned their pension fund has been looted...so they decide to rob a bank (the connection seemed to make little sense to me). The film is about these old geezers (Alan Arkin, Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine) and their robbery....which came off amazingly well considering none of them had committed any crimes before this.

The problem with the film is the 'meh factor'. In other words, after seeing the film, I felt very ambivalent....and I neither liked nor disliked it. A time-passer....nothing more.

Although the seriousness of the plight of us elderly is treated with respect as it was in the first version of Going In Style, this new version has a lot more laughs and a much happier ending all around except maybe for FBI agent Matt Dillon.

Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and Alan Arkin are the three new old geezers and they're so good you forget that Caine hasn't even tried to discard his cockney speech pattern.

In better times these two would be sitting on the park bench just reminiscing about the past, listening to the arteries harden, talk about friends who recently passed on and play with grandkids. But these are not ordinary times. The bank in one of their read between the lines mortgages is about to evict Caine from his house and both Caine and Freeman are about to lose their pensions from the company they work for. Capitalism at its unregulated best.

These old geezers aren't taking it lying down, they're going to rob the Williamsburg Savings Bank located in the tallest building in Brooklyn. I loved the scenes where they plan and execute the robbery, the seniors are fast learners and good improvisers.

They also are great comrades in fact one makes a big sacrifice for another. They also share the loot with some deserving people, those scenes are precious indeed.

I can't forget mentioning Christopher Lloyd who plays one of their Alzheimer stricken friends. Laugh there are in Lloyd's performance, but a bit poignancy as well. He's used by one of them as an alibi for the time of the robbery. His interrogation by Matt Dillon is hysterical.

A big sendup for gray power, that's what Going In Style is.
