Plot Summary: Starring four legends like you've never seen them before, "Last Vegas" tells the story of Billy, Paddy, Archie and Sam (played by Academy-Award winners Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro, Morgan Freeman and Kevin Kline), best friends since childhood. When Billy, the group's sworn bachelor, finally proposes to his thirty-something (of course) girlfriend, the four head to Las Vegas with a plan to stop acting their age and relive their glory days. However, upon arriving, the four quickly realize that the decades have transformed Sin City and tested their friendship in ways they never imagined. The Rat Pack may have once played the Sands and Cirque du Soleil may now rule the Strip, but it's these four who are taking over Vegas.

I'm going to see this later tonight. I am in the 60+ age group so I guess I am their target market. We shall see.

Well, I saw it and it wasn't as good as I hoped it would be. I guess you could call it Hangover 43, and since I am closer to the actor's ages than 43, I did enjoy it. It is hard to believe that the 4 male actors never worked together. They were all very good but for me, Mary Steenburgen was the highlight. Morgan Freeman was also very good. I could relate to most of the jokes. The younger group may want to catch it on DVD.

Mary Steenburgen definitely stole the show. I thought she was the lone bright spot. I was surprised these guys agreed to the weak script. Kevin Kline's story line was awkward. It seemed like they had nothing for him to do so they just threw something in. "OK honey, here's a condom. Go cheat on me and never tell me about it", "Oh really, thanks dear".

It had a few laughs, but was generally underwhelming.

I really enjoyed this one. Knew it was a comedy going in so I was not expecting to be floored by a fantastic script or storyline....the older I get the more I enjoy these movies that reflect how much things change the older you get.
