Grandad’s dream come true.,
By Stuart Tomanek (Notts, UK) -
The first third of this film is hilarious. I just love the way the three old timer sea farers reach the conclusion that one of them has to marry in order that they have a housekeeper to share. The best is the hunt for a bride through the lonely hearts column. The lines are perfectly delivered - the facial expressions a scream to watch as the plan is hatched and an ad placed. But after the mail order bride arrives the movie becomes predictable. It is all grandad’s fantasy as young women apparantly fall for 2 old men who look like they won’t make their next birthday. Just 3 stars - but worth watching for the very funny first third of the film.
Well worth watching. A gentle comedy,
By Sea Wolf (Cape Cod, Ma USA) -
Three cantankerous old men and a refined lady. A wonderful comedy set on (and filmed) on Cape Cod. For the locals, a challenge at times to locate set locations, but a lot of fun. I watched this being filmed, saw the film at a special screening and can’t wait for it’s release. And, I believe it was David Carradine’s last film. He is very amusing in this as are the others we remember from their younger days.
The Golden Boys is a great film!,
By Ye Olde Sea Dog -
A wonderfully funny, heartwarming romantic comedy. They don’t make films like this anymore. Well acted, well written, well directed. So sad David Carradine died, but he left us a wonderful gift in this performance — perhaps his best ever. I loved this movie!
