Geezers
Today's film is an extended commercial for Iceland.
Which isn't a bad thing. It is beautiful. Great scenery. And two interesting old guys who meet as each takes a vacation from the normal life to get their perspective and clear up some issues about what to do now that they are retired.
The two guys are good and so is the story but it is too long by half so that by the time I was an hour in I had enough. It felt as though they were pulling the taffy longer and longer to the point of breaking.
They guys were good but bore too much of the burden of the story. There are other characters who they meet along the way but it is not enough and feels like padding.
I have to admit that I skipped, hence making it a 2 out of Netflix5.
