Tom Cruise Eat Your Heart Out - Thelma review by griggs
At 93, June Squibb is basically the Tom Cruise of the senior set, doing her own stunts as Thelma, a spry yet mischievous granny on a mission for justice after being swindled by a phone scammer. While her panicked family squabbles tiresomely in the background, Thelma cruises around town on a stolen mobility scooter amidst massive explosions, proving that age is just a number. The film may be light on laughs, but Squibb's charm makes this otherwise formulaic film somewhat bearable.
