Sometimes cute, often times sombre, Thelma is an emotional yet quippy look at getting old, but not getting knocked down. Some gags about not knowing how to use technology and references to Tom Cruise espionage movies can't counteract the weight of Thelma's sad, sometimes harrowing look at getting old, and that imbalance makes this a rather emotional, depressing watch.

Original and wholesome, but once the idea takes place to pursue the scammers, it's pretty boring, not bad for something to pass an hour or so.

I was expecting like a dumb comedy but instead I got a wholesome and super cute movie There’s something about this film that just softens the fear of growing old. The connections Thelma had with her family, friends and even people think she’s met is so precious and heartwarming. It’s rare we get see stories like this, so I found it super sweet and enjoyable to watch

According to playwright David Mamet, “Age and treachery will always beat youth and exuberance.” And, if 93-year-old Thelma Post (June Squibb) has anything to say about it in this fact-based action-comedy-drama, you can take that notion to the bank. In this story of a spry but sometimes-gullible More

Grandma "Thelma" (June Squibb) is rather cruelly fleeced by a man pretending that her beloved grandson "Daniel" (Fred Hechinger) has been in a car accident with a pregnant women. $10,000 lighter her family realise she's been scammed and she is having none of it. Recruiting her pal "Ben" (Richard Rou More

If it was created with a different set of sensibilities, Thelma could’ve easily been a cheap shot at seniors (and a forgettable experience). Imagine a sitcom-style movie with stale gags about how oldies can lose their marbles, their temper, or their bladder control. A film built around a character More
