Review of Wild Oats

Wild Oats (2016)
Awful film
31 May 2023
Warning: Spoilers
It'a always great to see MacLaine & Lange, but this script is horrendous.

Technically, it is fine, but again, the writing is so horrible. Some of the supporting roles are quite miscast. The insurance investigator? And WHAT is Demi Moore doing?

It comes across as either performers wanting the paycheck, or a paid vacation in an exotic location.

Best Actress Oscar winners deserve better than this, as they age.

Lange is fantastic in "Feud," filmed a year later. MacLaine still has projects in 2023, at the age of 89.

Again, back to the screenplay. Just bad, bad dialogue, and a bunch of clichés.

I will also say, that the make-up is not the best - quite unflattering.

I have about thirty minutes left, and I doubt that I'll watch till the end credits.
