Synopsis

Watch: The Wendell Baker Story 2005 123movies, Full Movie Online – Near the Texas-Mexico border, Wendell Baker has a few things going for him: his genial nature and optimism and the love of Doreen. His troubles? He dances around telling her that he loves her, and his idea of work is illegal. He’s arrested, imprisoned, and she puts him behind her when she realizes that even prison is just a good excuse for him to play football with the guys. When he is paroled, it’s to a job in the “hotel industry” at a board and care home for seniors, where the head nurse is running a scam. Three of the residents respond to Wendell’s good heart. Can they expose the scam and help Wendell win back Doreen?.
Plot: Luke Wilson plays a good-hearted ex-con who gets a job in a retirement hotel. Three elderly residents help him win back his girlfriend as he lends them a hand in fighting hotel corruption.

Reviews:

Enjoyable…loved the soundtrack
Watched it last night for the first time. Although it wasn’t “slapstick” humor, I still felt it was thoroughly enjoyable. In fact, it seemed almost like a breath of fresh air. Not as formulaic as a lot of other comedies out there, thank goodness. I especially enjoyed Luke’s character of Wendell Baker. He comes across as being forever boyish until he does experience loss in his life. Harry Stanton and Seymour Cassel really do bring a unique air to the film, being septuagenarians with a fervid love of life. Kristofferson’s character I felt could have used a bit more development, but is overall well acted nonetheless.

The soundtrack to this movie really helped a lot. If it had to be called a flavor, I’d call it “Texas BarBQ”…flavorful, colorful and spicy. Very unique.

In short, this would be the kind of movie you could watch with your family and not be embarrassed.

Review By: johnnyl321
Rather generic and dull
Given the state of this films release, didn’t have such high expectations. Just expecting sone solid humor. However this film isn’t really much, the film isn’t too funny, the plot is quite thin and after a while everything becomes very predictable and stale.

Luke Wilson does play his part well enough, from when we first see him. He is rather cocky and over confident then after while coming out of prison his entire persona changes and becomes quite likeable. But even so, nothing quite memorable. Will Ferrell has a few scenes- some are the highlight. Several different characters- none of which quite stand out.

In the end this film is just rather generic and not so much to think about. Ultimately forgettable.
