Boynton Beach Club (2005)

Overrated

Instead of renting/watching this movie, watch Caddy Shack for the 20th time. Boyton Beach Club was, for the most part, boring. Big disappointment, or as they say in the ACC....OVER RATED !!!!! July 29, 2008

Boynton Beach Fun...

I throughly enjoyed every minute of the movie. The stars just kept on coming. A little sad but big smiles as well. Great little movie. April 20, 2008

Dating over 50

I loved this movie! For anyone who is over 45 and out there dating again, you'll find something to chuckle over. The actors will remind you of yourself or someone you know. Who said being over 50 wasn't sexy? I've purchased several copies and sent them to friends. It is for the young at heart, if not young in age. March 27, 2008

Great acting, good script!

An easy to watch wonderful movie about mature people going back out to find a partner after a loss. Len Cariou brings masterful dignity to his role as a new widower whom we watch grow steadier as the film progresses. Joe Bologna is brilliant, with his comic timing, his warmth and heart clearly visible in the delightful Harry. Brenda Vaccaro gives an Academy Award quality performance of a justifiably angry woman who pushes herself to reclaim life after losing her husband. It's a treat to see Dyan Cannon with all her coiled energy light up the screen with superb acting, Sally Kellerman still has Hot Lips that are sweetened by her dignified performance as a shy and fiery divorcee, and cameos by Mal Z. Lawrence and Renee Taylor are split second down to the last dot perfect.

That this film has not seen greater success is a mystery. It's timely, smart, witty, at times hilarious, it touches hearts, it has a great cast of seasoned likeable credible actors whose synergy one feels through the screen. February 18, 2008

I give this love letter of a movie five, count 'em, five stars.

I don't give 5 stars to many movies, but it was so nice to see a lot of actors who were "Hot Stuff" in the 70's, in a movie about life at the age these actors actually are, plus. A little trivia-Did you know for a while the only reason Dyan Cannon was known was she married Cary Grant, (who?), one of the best looking actors of his era, and had his baby, Brenda Vacarro and Barbara Streisand went to High School together. Not as good as "Queen of the Stardust Ballroom", but very well done and Brenda, Sally and Dyan show that they still have "It", but, it's just lower than it used to be. Enjoy!
