remake of 1970 neil simon script movie about an old couple ( steve martin and goldie hawn ) whose child have move out . they travel to new york city so he can go to a job interview and they endure practically every sort of misfortune imaginable . i definitely like this one because i actually laugh a fair bit and i like it that the film doesn not overstay it welcome or go too far over the top . top notch comedy cast be a strong asset and with a well cast john cleese ( a a hotel manager with a kinky secret ) an enjoyable scene stealer . some people may find it amuse that one of the sex and the city star and cynthia nixon and play a woman in a support group who be a sex addict . trivia alert represent that hawn actual son and oliver hudson ( star of a tv series that i think be call my guide to become a rock star ) and play her and martin son in the airport scene . it be a while since i have see the 1970 original and i can not remember if i really like it or not . anyway and this be a decent comedy and i be go to give it seven out of ten .
