Old Dogs
2009 Directed by Walt Becker
Synopsis
Life is Not Child-Proof.
Charlie and Dan have been best friends and business partners for thirty years; their Manhattan public relations firm is on the verge of a huge business deal with a Japanese company. With two weeks to sew up the contract, Dan gets a surprise: a woman he married on a drunken impulse nearly nine years before (annulled the next day) shows up to tell him he's the father of her twins, now seven, and she'll be in jail for 14 days for a political protest. Dan volunteers to keep the tykes, although he's up tight and clueless. With Charlie's help is there any way they can be dad and uncle, meet the kids' expectations, and still land the account?

Pretty terrible.

TV movie with well-known faces. It was really weird seeing Travolta in this excellent comedy because the last character I saw him play was the Pulp Fiction's one.
All I can say is that I feel really sorry for those people who went to see it in cinema and just sorry for those who saw it at all. -
I can't waste much time on this movie; it's absolutely horrible. There's talent involved in this film, but none of that talent finds its way onto the screen. The plot makes no sense, the characters are paper thin, and the only thing that would make me excuse that (actual funny jokes) is missing from the film. I'd rail on it further, had I not seen another movie in this same mold just a few days after I saw this one, a "comedy" with so much talent in it that makes no sense, and I'd rather spend my time complaining about that one, because honestly, it makes Old Dogs look like A Fish Called Wanda.

Når disse ytterst velvalgte ordene skribles ned nærmer denne skribenten seg 29 årringer på baken og en altfor nærstående midtlivskrise er under full planlegging. Akkurat som i Hollywood! For hvor ofte ser vi ikke disse kompis-filmene hvor to eldre stjerner får slå seg løs i en serie heseblesende situasjoner klippet sammen til en film? Med John Travolta OG Robin Williams i hovedrollene bør disse gamle bikkjene kunne sjarmere selv den mest innbitte grinebiteren av en anmelder.
Oh beware of the comedy-gods for they will make you laugh you ass off! Robin Williams er en levende komi-konge, John Travolta (The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3) beviste med Wild Hogs at han mestret også denne vanskelige sjangeren, Seth Green er en humorist for…

Watching this movie is like having to spend summer vacation at your grandparents retirement home when your a teenager.

Ok. So, Robin Williams and John Travolta are sports marketers (I don’t know), and when Robin Williams gets divorced, Travolta takes him to some resort and Robin meets a woman who he impulsively marries and I guess sleeps with, though it’s implied that he didn’t because there’s a line about the marriage being annulled. And so, seven years later, he writes her a letter about how he still cares about her, and so she comes back into his life and tells him she has two seven year old kids who are his, because whether or not he actually had sex with her, he definitely impregnated her. And, like, she’s going to prison for two weeks because she’s an eco-terrorist and…
