“Thelma” (Cert 12A) Comedy/Action
June Squibb, who did most of her own stunts in the film, plays Thelma Post, a feisty 93-year-old grandmother who gets conned by a phone scammer pretending to be her grandson (Fred Hechinger), and sets out on a treacherous quest across Los Angeles, accompanied by an aging friend (Richard Roundtree) and his motorized scooter, to reclaim what was taken from her. With Malcolm McDowell.
“Squibb’s charm, her gutsiness, and her sharp, subtle humour fill the movie with warmth and veracity. May we all age like her.
“Thelma is slickly made, real-life grandmother sweet, overall warm and winsome. It’s likely to draw laughs if you’ve ever coached someone on how to use a computer, tears if you’ve ever loved an elderly person who held tightly to their dignity. And Squibb is as understatedly funny and commanding as you’d expect.
“It’s a great big happy, sad and profoundly moving hug of a film.”
