Their home and assets are legally stripped from them and they are put in a prison-like "eldercare facility," victims of an exploding old age industry.

Variety

An ostensible thriller that’s not very thrilling. Still, its storytelling has the same grim satisfaction that drives its heroine.

Guardian

The plot is overcooked like burnt toast... Still, after watching men over 50 like Liam Neeson and Clint Eastwood kicking butt, this feels like a gamechanger. More please.

Rated: 3/5

About Boulder

From time to time, we’re treated to a solid movie featuring an outstanding lead performance that elevates the whole damn thing. That’s exactly what The G is.

Morbidly Beautiful

A stark, unflinching thriller that transforms real-world horrors of elder exploitation into a chilling revenge saga. Slow-burning yet deeply affecting, it’s an unforgettable reckoning with the predators who profit from society’s most vulnerable.

Rated: 4/5

High on Films

The slow-burn thriller might simmer for too long in its noir-inspired vibes, but Dale Dickey’s super-angry grandmom single-handedly carries it to the finish line.

Rated: 2.5/5

Reminds me a bit of Rolling Thunder- gritty, dark vibe, slow burn, you're not sure it's going to end well... for anyone.

Absolutely loved this film. Dale Dickey was phenomenal. I’ve been a fan since My Name is Earl, and she doesn’t disappoint. One of the best films I’ve seen this year.

They couldn’t have made a worse movie if they had tried. Arcs that didn’t go anywhere. Action that never picked up. Boring as sucking on nails. And pretentious to boot. Save your time and skip this one

This film could have been so good. The grandma goes full medieval and takes out everybody. But instead it is very weird and never really works. Why is she drunk, then cares, then cares about the other man ? Why did she not leave, get guns and then rampage if she is the angriest person in the world. The bones of the film are good, but it could have been so much better. Was she trying hard not to go crazy ? but why. It should have been a taken / equalizer with a grandma.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
