Movie Review: FOLKS
Summary: 5 Stars
While the subject of Alzheimers is not a funny matter in real life, this movie does touch on the subject but with a lighter touch. Tom Selleck plays a stock broker for a company that is being investigated for fraud by the Feds. On the day that they are about to close in, Selleck gets a call from his mother in Flordia telling him that she is in the hospital and his father (played by Don Ameche) is alone at home in an retirement trailer park. He hadn't seen his father in years and has no idea that his father is suffering from Alzheimers. Selleck wonders why his sister & her two young sons, who live near their parents isn't with him.
He flies to Flordia and chaos insues. His father burns down the trailer so he brings his parents back to New York to live with him, his young wife and kids. Things only go down hill from there especially when his sister & her kids also move in. As Charlie Brown would say... AAARRRGGGGHH!
Great cast!
Summary of Folks!
Tom Selleck stars as wealthy Chicago broker Jon Aldrich, a loving husband and father who must rush to Florida when his elderly mother becomes ill. But when his senile father (Don Ameche ? winner of an Oscar® in 1986 for Best Actor In A Supporting Role in COCOON) burns down their house, Jon is forced to bring his parents home with him. Now nothing in his life ? including his money-grubbing sister (Christine Ebersole) or an FBI sting that has frozen all his finances ? can compare to the daily dangers of caring for his mother and father. Still, things are about to get much, much worse. Could Jon?s final solution be a series of deadly ?accidents? that will take care of his folks for good? Michael Murphy (PRIVATE PARTS), Wendy Crewson (THE SANTA CLAUSE) Robert Pastorelli (MURPHY BROWN) and Anne Jackson co- star in this hilarious black comedy from screenwriter Robert Klane and director Ted Kotcheff, the creators of WEEKEND AT BERNIE?S.Similar DVD Movies
