SORRY WHAT? I WAS ASLEEP BECAUSE THIS FILM WAS SO BORING.

To be fair, Finding Your Feet is not aimed at my age group. It's a story of 70-somethings finding their feet as life changes. Specifically, lead character Sandra whose husband has left her for another woman.

I wondered to myself whether my parents would like it - as 70-somethings they're presumably in the target audience. Ummm, nope. I reckon they'd find this dull too. Even a great cast (think Timothy Spall, Joanna Lumley and a host of others with very familiar  and talented faces with unfamiliar names) can't save this.

To be fair, the film isn't terrible, it's just a bit dull and not the kind of thing I'd dish out $20+ to see at the cinema.

I reckon this 2.5 star review in Fairfax press is fair, if you want to read more.

Trailer here. In cinemas now.
