Jacob B While not the perfect period for the end of Robert Altman’s career, it’s pretty damn good. Fans of the radio show should love it, and fans of Altman (and I’m definitely one of them) will enjoy seeing the master doing what he does best with some of his long time collaborators. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/06/25 Full Review N P With an A-List cast, the carefree banter and charming show tunes within a niche radio show about to close is entertaining and delightful that harkens to an older time. However, I'm ngl that I was pretty bored. Maybe because the point of the movie is that nothing much was supposed to happen despite an angel of death on the loose. It's a chill watch with an interesting and laid back premise to witness these great actors interact, but besides that, that's kind of it. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 11/09/24 Full Review Joseph B I was actually very surprised by this film. Great characters and a lot of fun music make the movie even more enjoyable. While the film has many side-plots, it is easy to keep up with. Performances that stand out particularly are Kline, Streep, Rudolph, Tomlin, Reilly, and Lohan. Kline and Reilly serve as great contrasts of comedic and dramatic actors while Streep and Tomlin’s charm being shown through song and comedy bring out the most laughs. Rudolph, in one of her early roles, show the true potential she had and why she succeeded. For Lohan, as it was her first role in a drama, the movie proves that she is not only great as a comedic actress, but also knows her craft as a dramatic actress in her transition from Disney kid to a leading Hollywood actress. I absolutely recommend this film. This all-star cast and plot make this film very enjoyable. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review Rob G An original and unique concept. Based on a real show's last night on air but with a fictional story and all star cast thrown in. Had the feel of those old time radio shows with a little weirdness thrown in with the cast of characters and Angel/Ghost. I've always loved this movie and have seen a few times now. Just makes you feel good. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/20/24 Full Review Jon L Meryl Streep and Lindsay Lohan deliver incredible performances! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/24 Full Review Kyle M Robert Altman's final picture attracts based on his connective complex signature with a star-studded ensemble cleverly delivered in all the critical glory now properly grasped, even if not a listener to the titular radio broadcast done faithfully with comedic reverence.
