Review: 'Stand Up Guys' Strands A Handful Of Legends In A Lame Up-All-Night Comedy
It’s impossible to walk out of “Stand Up Guys” without doing an impersonation of William Hurt in “A History Of Violence,” pressing fingers to your temple and asking, “How do ya fuck that up?” It’s like stocking a team with proven performers and hoping that everything else will work itself out at the...
