Review of Wild Oats

Wild Oats (2016)
6/10
**1/2
27 August 2016
Warning: Spoilers
The film really started off well when retired history teacher Eve gets far too much extra money from her recently deceased husband's life insurance policy.

She flees with her best friend, Jessica Lange, who really steals the film with her acting to the Canary Islands.

The film begins to fall apart when MacLaine is the victim of a scam artist who takes the money she has won at the gambling table as well.

Enter Howard Hesseman as an agent from the insurance company threatening MacLaine with arrest, if the money is not returned.

Finding out where the scam artists have gone and the reason for their ways makes the film turn ridiculous at best.
