Last Vegas

Last Vegas is much more than The Hang-Over50's it's billed as in the trailer.

Forgoing the obvious 'ow my back' jokes in favour of genuine comedy and banter that could only come from lifetime friends the film has so much heart and plenty of emotion.

Sure, the cliches of a Vegas based romantic-ish comedy are all there but a cast with Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro and Morgan Freeman can sell them better than most.

It's charming and enjoyable, if a little short on laugh out loud moments (although Morgan Freeman drunk on Vod-Bulls is one such classic.) A pleasant surprise.
