There is truth in the circumstances, let your criticism rest and imagine the possibilities of older people,who have lived life's experiences and find themselves separated from today's must haves and suffer the critical assumptions. Watch 😀

'Golden Years' is hit-and-miss in a few areas, but overall it's all a good laugh with an entertaining premise. Logically a lot of it is flawed and/or undercooked, most of the characters act strangely and the plot is kinda choppy in parts; especially across the final act. They try to force things together, whilst seemingly believing they're being much more clever and funny than they actually are. However, taking out all of that, it does produce entertainment I can't lie. The cast are very good, with Bernard Hill (Athur) and Simon Callow (Royston) standing out. Brad Moore's Stringer is a terrible character though, he adds nothing despite being a key part to the plot. It's silly and averagely written, particularly the dialogue. I can't, though, deny I did enjoy myself watching this. If you don't take it seriously, which is admittedly difficult as it sometimes comes across as if they are trying to be smart, then you'll have a good time viewing.

Some fine actors (Hill, Stubbs, Callow) working to a dreadful script and plot.. Trying hard to be funny and failing. The story of the wannabe tough cop is so unfunny and obvious, plius the actor having zero talent means it's more cringing than humorous. McKenna and Johnston should have been retired long ago. Is this the best our film industry can come up with?

It's a serious issue covered in a most light hearted and lovely manner.

Loved this film, lots of fun, and managed to keep us engaged the whole way through, great cast and excellent acting by the superb Mr Moore, and his eyebrow,

Based on the trailer, we watched this with my 93 year old mother on a Sunday afternoon. I say this to emphasise that we didn't build this up as prime time viewing. But in spite of the promised wit of the plot and charm of the recognisable cast, we saw what is certainly one of the worst and most amateur films ever made. Of course it is a fantasy, but that is no excuse for shoddy plot construction, terrible dialogue, dreadful direction and unwatchable cinematography - unworthy of a crime reconstruction film, the locations were nice, and that was it. The unevenness was excruciating e.g. Crass sex references throughout; the dubious social commentary e.g. Stopping of NHS funding for life saving drugs; the untimely death of one of the leading characters (reprising his early death in a previous, seminal, British comedy). The cast have huge talent, with one exception, but my god, they didn't stand a chance with the script (the exception being the spray tanned policeman, who was one of the worst actors I have ever seen). An oddity was all the extras being listed in the closing credits, does this mean they either worked for no fee ( but a credit instead) or perhaps the film was crowd funded? I can only imagine the biggest cost of the film was for the rights to the music, but sullying David Bowie's classic title song can surely not justify the fee paid? Can I respectfully request that the producers and writers go back to their day jobs, and despite their best intentions, satisfy themselves with the knowledge that just because you can make a film, it doesn't mean you should make a film.

This film has all the hallmarks of a great British film. A cast that did the film credit. It is a film that you sit and watch and enjoy, it is not complicated at all and that is the joy of the film.

Fun movie. Escapist. If you're looking for gritty crime drama, move on. But if you're looking for charming characters, good performances, and a feel good movie where the real bad guys get what's coming to them, then you will enjoy this little gem.

Just loved this movie. So entertaining with .great humour and superb experienced cast. The social commentary is perhaps less percepible with US audience but it is great. Very well written, directed, filmed and edited. Shame Tom Jones did not appear in person..
