Oh, my, what a load of hackneyed, manipulative, sentimental, changing-my-life glop, with
Al Pacino as the titular superannuated rock & roll whore and
Bobby Cannavale as the adult child Danny had never even bothered to meet. But damned if those two, with the always unerring help of
Christopher Plummer as Danny's manager and best friend and
Annette Bening as the manager of the suburban New Jersey Hilton where Danny stays while looking for his lost soul, don't make it work. Oh, and an almost exclusively John Lennon soundtrack doesn't hurt. You'll laugh and you'll cry exactly when you're told, but hey, just sit watching the wheels go by and enjoy it.
