"๐3.25/5๐โจWell, darn. I had built THELMA (2024) up in my mind to be an over-the-top, hilarious, laugh-out-loud slapstick comedy, picturing Thelma zipping around on her scooter and mowing down criminals. ๐๐ต๐ผ๐ต๐ฅ
Instead, it turned out to be more of a light comedy, with much of the humor arising from the contrast between Thelmaโs age and her unexpected vigilante actions, along with her amusing struggles with technology. ๐ป
While there were many #heartfelt moments and reflections on #aging, the film leans more toward a delightfully #charming #comedy, infused with a good dose of #emotional depth, rather than non-stop hilarity. Thatโs okay, even though a couple of scenes felt melancholy due to her reflections on aging. But best of all was the bond between Thelma and her grandson. ๐ต๐ผ๐๐ง๐ผโ๐ฆฑ

"Watched this with my girly the other night. It was perfect! June Squibb is outstanding! At 94 years old, Iโve seen her in so much the last few years and she does not disappoint! Sheโs hilarious! This movie is somewhat based on a true story which makes it sad, however .. thereโs the comedy aspect as well. Good for the original actor! (Seen at the end of the film) ๐ช๐ผ definitely a light hearted watch. 8.5/10 โญ๏ธ"
"This was a really unexpected delight. "
