Superb! Makes me proud to be on the way to 90s & to be a 'balloon'! Thelma (June Squibb) was marvellous & also Danny and Ben. Stunningly witty & spellbinding!

Really good adventure but with a slow pace. Easy to understand what everyone was saying. Really good actors.

It's good to laugh leaving all that's going on in world out of my thoughts for a short while.

Ridiculously endearing. I hope I have half her spirit when I get to her age.

Well suited to the audience.

I quite liked witnessing the seemingly ordinary challenges faced by others.
4
Made me worry about old age but was also fun! 'Do not go gentle into that good night!'
4
xxx well. It's a long way from Shaft & Clockwork Orange but it was a great M.I.-esque romp. Good fun. (But God help us all...)
4
Charming, amusing, poignant, heart warming. Thelma reminded me a lot of my 100 year old mother-in-law!
4
Scary look at old age. Film wasn't quite what I expected.
4
It was like an old revenge movie but without the violence. I thought it was good.
4
Different from what I was expecting. Not as funny as I thought it would be.
4
Silly - enjoyable - makes a change from the usual Fleet Film 'message' content.
4
A slick and well made comedy that clearly resonates with anyone who has tried to coach an older relative on using technology. Given the laughter in the room a clear favourite with many just not my cup of tea for Fleet Film.
3
Sort of enjoyable. But not looking forward to getting old!
3
Predictable & unbelievable but harmless fun. Inoffensive but a bit mainstream for me.
3
Okay but I would rather see films not screened locally at mainstream cinemas.
3
Ridiculous.
3
Liked fresh take on different view of life.
3
Gentle, entertaining but slow.
3
Amusing.
3
Comedy?? Tragedy of old age?

Maudlin!

First film of the season I thought was poor.

A bit like a 1970s American TV film - but good to try something different.
