Quick Review: Redford truly owns Forrest Tucker -- the real person he portrays in what's said to be his last ever performance in this character-driven, based on actual events heist dramedy with a touch of lighthearted romance, but despite that and the film's warm retro visual tone, "The Old Man" is a thrill-free affair about a polite gentleman robbing banks with a smile on his face, that's too laid-back and sluggishly-paced to be gripping or enjoyable.
