Thelma

Absolute dross, slow, poorly acted and the music is way OTT

Fun and sweet. Really liked it.

I wanted to love this more. I love the titular character but the melodramatic family chasing her was a bit grating and not very funny. I feel the older characters carried the drama, humor and commentary on aging in a “modern” time. I wish the counter narrative with the family had much less screen time (largely separate from Thelma and her reality anyway, and I understand that is the whole point but still…) . It dragged. I wanted more of the main character and less of the family “processing” - at the very least, leaving their parts in, they didn’t have to miss an opportunity to hit themes a little harder since they weren’t very funny. The scenes with the older folks deserved a bigger portion of the film (like the whole thing). Squibb and Roundtree were amazing. This rating is not a reflection on their performances. Not at all.

Can’t believe this is 98% on Rotten Tomatoes. NOT a movie worth watching.

Utterly dreadful! Clearly a ton of fake reviews on here.

Delightful film. It's not about a scam. It's about a live well lived.

10/10m no notes and a great watch

Cute Laverne and Shirley type comedy adventure , just don’t think about it too much and don’t be in a hurry and you’ll enjoy the ride with granny.

Loved this movie, made everyone laugh!

Thelma is funny just not laugh out loud funny. It's very consistent in delivering witty and clever jokes about age, technology and family drama. You should probably watch it with your parents to get the full effect. I think my 70 year mom would get a real kick out of it. Although she's literally been through a similar scam that scared the hell out of her so maybe not. It's a great story with a wonderful cast. Give it a watch with or without Grandma.
