New York Times

As these buddies banter about the irritations of getting on and getting along, it does not feel as if the movie were making jokes at their expense.

The Hollywood Reporter

Intriguing non-pro actors are badly served by a half-baked film.

Village Voice

[An] eager-to-please but creaky and shambling movie.

Eugene Weekly (OR)

Old Goats has moments of subtle wisdom and is refreshingly straightforward in its depiction of the lives of older men.

Spectrum Culture

You can see hints of the stories and local color that these men and other Bainbridge Island residents naturally convey. Too bad it's shoehorned into a contrived, meandering elderly bromance.

Rated: 2/5

The Dissolve

Even post-retirement, the film seems to say, guys will be guys, and women should go sit somewhere else.

Rated: 2.5/5

Dr. Jeff S

A charming, intimate, sympathetic vignette of what it's like to be an old geezer. An antidote to "toxic masculinity". A+

I liked this movie as soon as it started. 3 men that are different but help each other as friends. Quite funny and good acting and story line. I recommend watching.

Old goats is incredibly heartwarming and funny. It is refreshing in its take on senior relationships and does not hit your over the head with 'old guy jokes' like other comedies on this subject do. I would highly recommend it to anyone reaching or in retirement age as well as younger audience members as well!
