Renowned for their remarkable chemistry whenever they appear together on screen, Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin's collaborations have been comedy gold.
The duo of Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin have been making a splash in Hollywood for decades, and their TV and movie team-ups have resulted in comedy gold. First working together in the early 1980s, the pair have found each other again and again, and their collaborations have shown off the best of what each actor brought to the table.
80 for Brady succeeded at the box office largely because of the star power of its leads, and the script itself was a boilerplate series of generational jokes that didn't stray too far from tried and true formulas. Fonda and Tomlin were excellent as always, and the addition of Moreno and Field only served to elevate instead of detract. Ultimately, it fell somewhat flat though because of its lack of conflict and overall low stakes.
Met with middling reviews from critics, the movie suffered largely from its own tone and fell somewhere between a sobering analysis of aging and a screwball comedy. The dark impetus for the story didn't match the movie's humor, and it never rebounded after it finally laid it all on the line for the audience when it came to Howard's vile acts. Jane Fonda's best movies often put her dramatic acting chops on display, and Moving On was no different.
