neutral · AI labelView post →Tonights Movie: the ironically titled THE RETIREMENT PLAN, because this is definitely a Nic Cage just for the paycheck film… On the bright side not one single braincell was used to watch it.
negative · AI labelView post →If u missed the unbearable weight of massive talent thats a pretty fun movie. The Retirement Plan is like a nothing movie but fun enough and it's crazy u likely you'd miss it, but face//off is in fact an incredibly fun movie

neutral · AI labelView post →Last nights movie was The Retirement Plan with Nicolas Cage. Very much enjoyed it ❤️
positive · AI labelView post →just watched The Retirement Plan, it's got Nicolas Cage and Ron Pearlman so what could go wrong, well quite a bit actually; it feels really cheap, a stop-gap for all concerned - the plot is fine but gets convoluted, the action is fine but it takes a third of the film to get going, 2 out of 5 📽🎥
negative · AI labelView post →The Retirement Plan (2023) An action B-movie w/ some janky special effects about a retired assassin who has to save his daughter & granddaughter from some Bad Dudes. However, it’s elevated by some genuinely funny moments & a few surprisingly heartwarming ones. 1/ 🧵 #movies #moviesky

positive · AI labelView post →The Retirement Plan isn't funny enough to be a comedy and too bland as an action film. Nicolas Cage isn't good or unhinged, and Jackie Earle Haley just screams 90s mobster cliches. It's just ... bleh. Full Review: 📽️ FilmSky
negative · AI labelView post →Going into a movie theater with no prior knowledge of what I’m seeing and taking a chance with The Retirement Plan with Nick Cage. This is what the A-list membership is for
neutral · AI labelView post →You ever see a movie so bad that you hope you're not recognized coming out of the theater? Nic Cage is a weakness of mine. This is one of his bad ones... like redbox direct to video bad. My ½★ review of The Retirement Plan on Letterboxd boxd.it/4QSqQZ

neutral · AI labelView post →The Retirement Plan (2023) This was an experience. It's kinda hard to explain the way I felt about this movie, I enjoyed it, but it's kinda strange and needs to be seen and analyzed by people on their own I think
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching The Retirement Plan with Nic Cage and this might be my fav early 90’s Cinemax action film ever.
positive · AI labelView post →Now I’m watching The Retirement Plan. I was wrong. Nic Cage will still shift into Batshit Crazy no matter what the movie needs.
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched The Baker on Amazon yesterday not a bad movie, strong cast. However I thought the last 10 mins were a bit weak and rushed. Not sure of timings of both movies but the premise seemed similar to the recent nic cage movie The Retirement Plan.
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching The Retirement Plan. It is a really Really Really Really Bad movie.
negative · AI labelView post →THE RETIREMENT PLAN (2023) is the 4th of 6 Nicolas Cage movies this year. The 2nd of 4 since July. Nicolas Cage is magnificent in this cheap DTV action film. Ron Perlman & Thalia Campbell are great. Hudson, Greene & Haley are fine. The A plot works. The subplot is too obvious.

neutral · AI labelView post →This might be the most ridiculous Nicolas Cage film ever. And that’s saying something. The Retirement Plan wants to be Elmore Leonard-like but fails miserably.
negative · AI labelView post →The Retirement Plan: a geezer teaser given a full theatrical release, the new Nic Cage movie halts the momentum the actor had with The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent and Renfield and instead gives the viewer a bunch of half-baked ideas that should work with excellent execution.
