“The Retirement Plan” is a comedy-crime thriller movie about a woman in New York City who gets into trouble with criminals, and must send her daughter to her retired father in the Cayman Islands. Director-screenwriter Tim Brown has concocted a truly humorous thriller that has good pacing and great comedic timing by the actors.
The cast is headed by Nicholas Cage, playing a man who has a good retirement plan as a beach bumb when it is interrupted by the arrival of his granddaughter. Cage does a good job in this type of comedy, which is well within his limited range of acting. Also delivering good performances are Ashley Greene as his daughter, Thalia Campbell as the granddaughter, Jackie Earle Haley as the crime boss, and Ron Pearlman as his head henchman. We won’t forget Ernie Hudson, Grace Byers, Lynn Whitfield, Joel David Moore, Jordan Johnson-Hinds, and Rick Fox, the former NBA player we have not seen for a while on the big screen.
The watchable film “The Retirement Plan” was a flop at the box office for Darius Films, Productivity Media, and Joker Films.
