Last Vegas

Actors:  Robert Deniro, Morgan Freeman, Michael Douglas, Kevin Kline, Mary Steenburgen
Rating:  8 out of 10, I liked Last Vegas mainly because it has three of the best actors around as well as Michael Douglas. It was like one of the Hangover movies with a Viagra laced wolf pack. The story involved four lifelong friends now in their seventies who link up in Las Vegas for a bachelor party as the lone holdout, Douglas, finally gets married. There’s some very funny stuff here as the codger factor is applied to the youthful excesses of Sin City. All of these actors are superb and when you throw Mary Steenburgen into the mix you’re guaranteed an excellent movie. This isn’t very deep and it looked like they all had fun poking fun at themselves and their advancing age.

MVP:  Freeman as the very lucky enabler of the bunch
