I saw "Poms", starring Diane Keaton-Book Club, Mama's Boy; Jackie Weaver-The Disaster Artist, Silver Linings Playbook; Rhea Perlman-The Mindy Project_tv, Canadian Bacon; Pam Grier-Bless This Mess_tv, Above the Law and Bruce McGill-Rizzoli & Isles_tv, Timecop.
This is a comedy with mostly older actors doing tired jokes. My wife seemed to enjoy it more than I did, but she doesn't get out a lot. Diane moves to a retirement community and when she is told that she needs to join a club-which she has no interest in any of those that are available-she decides to start her own club and forms a cheer leading squad. Jackie, Rhea and Pam are some of the other members that join up to cheer on...well, I really don't know what they are cheering on. Bruce plays the security guard at the center that drives around in a golf cart-it's supposed to be funny when he gets in a hot pursuit. When Rhea's husband tells her that she can join the cheer leading squad over his dead body, the next scene is of the husband's funeral-I know, hilarious. It's not a bad movie, although kind of predictable, and I do like most of the actors. Like I said earlier, they are just tired jokes.
It's rated "PG-13" for language and sexual content-no nudity-and has a running time of 1 hour & 31 minutes.
It's not one that I would buy on DVD or even rent. If you really want to see it, I would wait until it comes to cable.
