Wide Blue Yonder (2010) – IMDb

This is a very fun film that goes overboard (yep, a pun) far too often. It’s too bad. It could have been an excellent film about smart feisty older folk who take charge of their own lives when eejits try to overrule them to prove their power and make more money.

That said, there were some bursts of brilliance, thank goodness! And many good laughs. One of the best was the opening scene. It was a great action scene (YES!! I said action scene – it’s all relative).

Brian Cox is at his uninhibited Scottish best.

This is a fun film to watch to just watch. Don’t take anything too seriously. If only there had been a bit more care to take out the slapstick, it could have been a great one! Enjoy it anyway!
