It's hard to see Michael Douglas fall from the cool guy he was back in the day. He was the cool cop in Basic Instinct who Sharon Stone could not resist. He held his own against a young Glenn Close (from Damages) in Fatal Attraction, and let's not forget he was Gordon Gekko! He was fantastic and he won an Oscar for Wall Street. It seems like 100 years ago but now we see him in the scandal sheets saying that he got cancer from kissing his wife's (Carmen Zeta Jones who looks like Douglas sucked the youth out of her) private parts?!? Then we see him playing Liberace? Now he truely shows that he is a cuckold in this movie where he is about to marry a girl that could be his granddaughter. The movie is about three sixty-something friends who take a break from their day-to-day lives to throw a bachelor party in Las Vegas for their last remaining single pal, Douglas.
The movie is cute and contrived but not worth going to the theater to see.
Verdict:
Greta Garbo was a great actress that retired when she was 36 yrs old. Douglas, it's time to hang it up. Ditto for Robert Di Niro.
