I have to admit "Old Dads" is much better than I expected. It is mostly a family film, and hilarious to watch.
Just like in the title, this is kind of a film from 1980s. Fun from beginning to the end, and funny all the way, too. I felt like I was watching a Bill Burr show, but not in a negative way. The plot and the dialogue have his humor in Bill Burr's character. However, our three dads have their own personal traits, which shows good writing, because when stand-up comics write screenplays, more often than not, all the characters sound the same.
Here in this film we have three distinctive dad characters with three distinctive wives. They all lead their lives in their own ways.
My two favourites in the film:
First, the epiphany moments of each character. Even though they follow each other very closely, they come in different moments and emotions.
Second is the cameo of Nia (Bill Burr's wife in real life).
