“Book Club” is a comedy for the more mature set starring Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Candice Bergen and Mary Steenburgen as lifelong friends who start reading the Fifty Shades of Gray series The books turn the three staid ones, Keaton, Bergen and Steenburgen, into mild sex fiends and Fonda, the aggressive one, ends up having a normal romance for once. All of the actresses are wonderful and each has at least one hilarious moment. My only criticism is that the ending was kind of predictable. Still, it was enjoyable watching these pros in action. By the way, Jane Fonda’s plastic surgeon should be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Special Effects. At 80 she looks great and it ain’t natural.
