Val (Al Pacino) is released from prison after serving twenty-eight years for refusing to give up one of his close criminal associates. His best friend Doc (Christopher Walken) is there to pick him up, and the two soon re-team with another old pal, Hirsch (Alan Arkin). Their bond is as strong as ever, and the three reflect on freedom lost and gained, loyalties ebbed and flowed, and days of glory gone by. But one of the friends is keeping a dangerous secret- he's been put in an impossible quandary by a former mob boss, and his time to find an acceptable alternative is running out. As the sun rises on the guys' legendary reunion, their position becomes more and more desperate and they finally confront their past once and for all. -- (C) LionsgateMovie Title : Stand Up Guys

Review For Movie Stand Up Guys
Thematic inconsistencies abound as Stevens aims for a tone somewhere between Grumpy Old Men, The Hangover, and Goodfellas.Drew Hunt-Chicago Reader
Some actors don't need top-shelf material. Just the pleasure of their company is enough. And so Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin turn the insubstantial Stand Up Guys into solid entertainment.
Peter Travers-Rolling Stone
It's just fun to watch Pacino, Walken and Arkin work together, very much enjoying the shared experience. Seeing Stand Up Guys is an offer you could easily refuse, but hey, why fight it?
Peter Howell-Toronto Star
If you don't think Al Pacino still has it in him, this is a welcome chance to be proved wrong.
Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle
Is it fun? Sure, some of the time. Is it good? That's a stretch. Does it tap the potential of these three actors? Fuggedaboutit.
Tom Long-Detroit News
The degree to which "Stand Up Guys" succeeds at all is completely dependent on Walken, who elevates everything around him by seemingly doing nothing at all.
Ann Hornaday-Washington Post
Thanks to Al Pacino, Christopher Walken, and Alan Arkin - mostly just for being charismatic old pros who are fun to hang out with - Stand Up Guys is watchable, occasionally amusing, not altogether insufferable.
Eric D. Snider-EricDSnider.com
A messy script isn't enough to undermine these clever veteran actors, who manage to make the most of the humour, drama and action without ever losing their dignity.
Rich Cline-Shadows on the Wall
Stand Up Guys probably won't appeal to anyone whose father hasn't got friends of pensionable age.
Graham Young-Birmingham Mail
It's depressing to see the likes of Pacino reduced to making erectile dysfunction jokes, more so when the film labours the gag by having him overdose on Viagra.
Alistair Harkness-Scotsman
Viagra is consumed, erections wrestled, old scores settled - blah blah blah.
Mark Kermode-Observer [UK]
Even when Walken, Pacino, and Arkin are phoning it in - on a rotary phone - they still earn their status as icons.
MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher
There's sharp dialogue and the odd, startling moment of emotional intimacy scattered amidst the dreck; enough to make this a solidly entertaining couple of hours if you try resolutely not to think about it too hard.
Emma Dibdin-Digital Spy
Frankly, if you put Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin in your movie, you don't really need to worry about the script: we'd happily watch them do just about anything on-screen.
Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com
Think what they might have achieved with better material.
Allan Hunter-Daily Express
An initially promising, increasingly glutinous buddy comedy that exploits and squanders the talents of its starry cast.
Charlotte O'Sullivan-This is London
With a little bit of chutzpah and a fistful of Viagra, the tough guys of yesteryear can still come staggering back to make a decent movie.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
A rewarding mash-up of Last of the Summer Wine and Goodfellas.
Tim Evans-Sky Movies
You'd think that septuagenarians Al Pacino and Christopher Walken would still have enough self-respect left in the tank to steer clear of debacles like this.
Curtis Woloschuk-Total Film
All three acting legends bring the spice to a sub-par story. But, the total is not enough to keep this flick from stinking.
Paul Chambers-Movie Chambers
There's much entertainment ... in watching a trio of great actors in the twilight of their careers, at work with a strong script.
John Serba-MLive.com
Stand Up Guys is very much an old man's film, but Stevens just about delivers the performances that its ageing audience demands.
Eddie Harrison-The List
It's hardly great, but it's refreshingly old school.
Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
There's something about Stand Up Guys that's both brilliant and poignant.
Leland Montgomery-Paste Magazine
...to watch Al Pacino overact with such a deficient script and lackluster directing is agony no moviegoer should be required to endure.
Tony Medley-Tolucan Times
One of the tiredest movies ever associated with those three actors.
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express
