Farrell and Findlay prove to be one of the most enchanting screen couples in many a moon. Unfortunately, the movie introduces a new character midway through, and it never recovers from the miscasting of this crucial role.

In the best film of 2013, Oscar Isaac plays a folksinger in 1961 New York who’s just waiting for that big break.

The pitch probably had Hollywood suits salivating: Sylvester Stallone and Robert De Niro play former pugilists who plan to get back into the ring 30 years after their previous bouts.

Flows more gracefully than its predecessor.
