Rolling Stone

This new version of Going in Style sells uplift so hard it loses touch with reality - and any genuine reason for being.

FilmInk

It gives you real elderly characters who, rather than being the butt of the joke, crack the best ones in the whole movie.

Variety

The movie will probably find a modest audience for a weekend or two, but it could have been so much bigger if it didn't reduce senior citizens to sympathetic data cards.

Time Out

All three stars deliver exactly what you expect from them - nothing more, nothing new - but their onscreen familiarity is a strange comfort in itself.

The New York Times

It's strictly comfort food, 99 percent predictable, though the 1 percent that isn't - you'll know it when you see it - is deftly executed.

Rolling Stone

Update of 1979's three-men-and-a-bank-robbery caper is no bargain, but it does let you hang with the A-list senior cast of Morgan Freeman, 79, Alan Arkin, 83, and Michael Caine, 84.

New Zealand Herald

Michael, Morgan and Alan roll out more than enough of the old magic to keep the proceedings enjoyable.

Los Angeles Times

"Going in Style" never gets beyond mildly amusing. If anything, it uses its gifted veterans to disguise how tired, implausible and overly sentimental the proceedings turn out to be.

Hollywood Reporter

It revolves around a bank heist, but the real crime in Going in Style is its waste of acting talent.

FilmInk

Real elderly characters who, rather than being the butt of the joke, crack the best ones in the whole movie.

Empire Magazine

A slick, no-surprises studio comedy that doesn’t make the most of its solid premise and star trio.
