Just Getting Started
A two-hander action comedy in the vein of Midnight Run (1988), about an ex-F.B.I. Agent (Tommy Lee Jones) and an ex-mob lawyer in the Witness Protection Program (Morgan Freeman) having to put aside their petty rivalry on the golf course to fend off a mob hit.

Among the wisest things ever said about old age will always be the immortal dictum of Bette Davis: "Old age ain't for sissies." It also ain't for people whose skills have vanished completely but are pretending they haven't.

Dramatically and comically impotent.

Ron Shelton's lame comedy is an utterly useless misfire that brings out the worst in all parties involved.

... writer-director Ron Shelton is a long way from the cerebral wit of his Bull Durham heyday.

The climactic 20 minutes of Just Getting Started are so lazily directed that I wondered why Shelton bothered trying to put action into the movie at all.

This wheezy romantic caper ... inspires little more than melancholy reminiscences of Mr. Shelton's earlier work.

Unfunny action comedy wastes great cast; violence, language.

Just Getting Started simply never does get started. It's D.O.A.

Not even two Oscar winners can save this garbage.

A rather lazy boondoggle by Shelton, who waited 14 years to direct again and didn't bother to make it worthwhile.
