The jokes are as creaky as the would-be robbers' ageing bodies, but Thompson's air of wry disdain and Brosnan's frisky playfulness are enormously winning.May 23, 2014
A delightful, breezy and outrageously funny slice of mindless entertainment with a charming cast.May 23, 2014
Alas, there are no sparks. There is no excitement. Hopkins' clumsy script simply bumbles its way past plot holes into predictabilities.May 22, 2014
...appallingly implausible...lowlighted by a total lack of chemistry between Thompson and Brosnan.May 23, 2014
Hopkins managed a genuine delight a few years ago with "Last Chance Harvey," starring Thompson and Dustin Hoffman as two late-in-life lovers in London. But his new script has none of that wit.May 23, 2014
Thompson is one of those rarities who shines in just about anything. Her crack timing enlivens even her worst lines.May 23, 2014
A good-natured if strenuously wacky caper comedy about a divorced British couple who plot a diamond heist to save their pensions.May 23, 2014
Most everything about this movie is predictable within the first few minutes ...May 28, 2014
...an underwhelming and forgettable endeavor that squanders the efforts of its charismatic leads.May 23, 2014
This "Punch" never truly connects.May 23, 2014
Pierce Brosnan and Emma Thompson...make a charming couple. But their best efforts can't save Joel Hopkins' weak script,...which he also directed, clumsily.
