My Old Ass
There are parts of My Old Ass that worked for me, particularly the performances, but I never connected with the story as much as I wanted to. The central premise is interesting, yet I found myself frustrated by how often the movie treated questionable decisions and reckless behavior as charming or insightful rather than actually examining them.
Aubrey Plaza makes the most of her screen time, bringing her usual wit and dry humor to the role. Maisy Stella carries the film well and shows a lot of natural screen presence, especially considering how much of the movie rests on her shoulders.
The film has some heartfelt moments and a few genuinely funny scenes, but the message never fully landed for me. I appreciated the performances more than the story itself, and by the end, I found the film pleasant enough but ultimately forgettable.
