KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THESE
NEVER TOO LATE hhjjj 95 minutes (M)
A BUNCH of elderly Vietnam vets plan their escape from a retirement home to tick a few last items off their bucket list. For former special ops leader Jack Bronson (James Cromwell), that means proposing to the love of his life (Jacki Weaver), who is in the early stages of dementia, before she forgets who he is. A strong seasoned cast, which also includes Jack Thompson, Dennis Waterman and Roy Billing, deserves much better material than this. Shamelessly sentimental. Screening in cinemas now
