Ratings by Chuck Vinch. Zamfir  sandwiches Between Jack Leinon and Walter Matthau for the romantic comedy Grumpy old men. Chuck Vinch stall writer on movies Grumpy old men rated pg-13 must sea Worth your time it passable entertainment coming soon to a video outlet near you and you can wait Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon May be fossils to most moviegoers these Days but they effortlessly recreate the chemistry of their Days As the Odd couple with this often Bawdy tale of two old widowers made Young again by the favors of a woman. Lemmon plays John Gustafson who lives next door to Matthau s Max Gold Man. The two widowers have spent their lives in the tiny Frozen Hamlet of Wabasha minn., where the major excitement is ice fishing. They were boy Hood friends but As the film gradually reveals they had a falling out decades before when John stole from Max the woman who became his wife. Although John asserts that the woman in question turned out to be no prize Max s ego has never let him move past this slight and they have. Spent the better part of six decades locked in a Frankish feud. Example Max uses his to Remote control to surreptitiously Zap John s set while he s trying to watch the lottery drawing. When Max opens his window to gloat John turns a Garden Hose on him. This Odd but stable existence is turned upside Down with the arrival of Ariel Truax Ann Margreta sexy Siren who moves in across the Street. Ariel a widow is a free spirited expressionist Painter and teacher of literature who likes to Roar around on her snowmobile and frolic in her custom built hot tub. Holy Moley Max exclaims while watching Ariel Cool off in the Snow after a dip in the tub. As Chuck Ossie Davis owner of the local bait and tackle shop observes that s not just a woman living across your Street she s an Angel the boys Are soon clipping their toe nails and clicking their hair As they compete for Ariel s affections bringing to the fore All the painful memories of their split so Many years before. The situation is complicated by a snooty irs agent Buck Henry who wants to throw John out of his House because of a huge tax liability that he did t even know about. Then there s his daughter Melanie Daryl Hannah who is going through a painful split from her husband. That news is a Boon to Max s son Jacob Kevin Polla the newly elected mayor who has nursed a crush on her since their school Days to Gether. Director Daniel Petrie and writer Mark Steven Johnson Are not working with Overly ponderous material Here. About the deepest it gets is the mantra John adopts from Ariel the Only re Grets we have in life Are the risks we Don t take but the film strikes a Universal chord about the value of lifelong Friendship and the fear of spending one s Twilight years alone and a great twist at the end drives Home the message that you re Only As Young As you feel. Viewers who like their movies laced with Rock pm sock pm action Are advised to look elsewhere. Petrie favors a studied approach at least for the first three fourths of the film which succeeds mainly because of the Subtle talents of Matthau and Lemmon. After working together for so Many years they can can convey More emotion with a silent glance than Arnold Schwarzenegger can with a combination flame thrower grenade launcher machine gun any Day. As Good As they Are Lemmon and Matthau Are almost upstaged by another venerable Hollywood Veteran Bur Gess Meredith As John s 94-year-old father a Randy old lecher who likes to advise his son on How to bed Ariel and whose knowledge of euphemisms for the sex act apparently has no limits. Kids you can t live with pm you can t shoot pm he huffs after yet an other circuitous conversation about Ariel with the waffling John. Matthau and Lemmon Are still Good enough to earn Grumpy old men three stars. If you d like to see them in their prime Hunt Down a video copy of their 1966 farce the Fortune cookie which for my Money is even better than the Odd couple. Stick around for the closing credits when Petrie a reels a series of Blooper outtakes that Are As funny As anything in the movie itself. Page 12 sunday january 16, 1994
