Never Too Late

2020 · 95 min

A gentle, bittersweet caper that ambles along with old-timer charm, mixing light laughs with quiet pangs about memory and missed chances.

Tagline: Love isn't always on time.
Overview: It's been a long time since Caine, Bronson, Angus and Wendell—aka ‘The Chain Breakers'—escaped a torturous Vietnamese POW camp. They now find themselves sharing a new prison, The Hogan Hills Retirement Home for Returned Veterans. Each of the boys has an unrealised dream they want to achieve, so they band together to devise a plan to escape their new hell. But the rules of engagement have changed. In fact, they can’t even remember what they were—and that’s half the problem.
How it feels: Warm, light, whimsical and melancholic. Measured and easy to follow.
About: Friendship, aging, freedom, memory
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
