best movie i've ever seen.

Awesome Movie

Absolutely Fantastic

This film was awful, full of vulgarities with no substance to the plot. I kept watching and hoping it would get better but Found myself constantly waking my wife who kept falling asleep. Sad to see a big star such as Robert De Niro lowering his standards these days to star in these snoozers.

With a title like Dirty Grandpa, you can fathom this is a crude, low brow comedy. It wants to shock you and beat you with a serious message of having fun because life is short. The trouble is it is not funny with a rather generic and forgettable plot. A lot of the crude comedy has been done before in those Hangover films and its rip offs.Jason (Zac Efron) is a bland corporate lawyer engaged to hectoring Meredith (Julianne Hough) who is even more boring. When Jason's grandma dies, he gives his grandfather Dick (Robert De Niro) a ride to Florida after the funeral. Dick is foul mouthed and on the lookout to have sex so soon after his wife has died. His crude behaviour shocks Jason who catches his grandpa jerking off to porn. Dick meanwhile is appalled with his straightlaced grandson who is following in his father's footsteps. Dick thinks he is getting married to someone unsuitable. He should be having fun, deep down he thinks his grandson is a free spirit. Dick wants to have fun after 40 years of marriage and life is short for him.Jason encounters Shadia (Zoey Deutch) an old college friend who he finds a genuine affection for, when he is not getting into scrapes and scraps with his grandpa who himself is romancing the much younger Lenore (Aubrey Plaza.)To my kids, Robert De Niro is the guy from those 'Meet the Parents' series of comedies. When I was younger De Niro was the guy from Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, The Deer Hunter, The Godfather II. We would debate whether he was the greatest actor in the world.Dirty Grandpa just shows that Hollywood doesn't know what to do with old great actors like De Niro and Pacino who seemed to have been reduced to making embarrassing comedies. Maybe Sean Connery and Gene Hackman had the right idea by just walking away from the industry.

At Grandma's funeral Dick Kelly (Robert De Niro) asks his grandson Jason (Zac Efron) to drive him to Florida from Atlanta. Jason hesitates as he is a corporate lawyer and is getting married to Meridith (Julianne Hough) in a couple of weeks. Straight laced Jason discovers his Grandpa has a few vices along the way as circumstances takes them to Daytona during Spring Break with an old college friend (Zoey Deutch) and her girlfriend (Aubrey Plaza) who has the hots for Grandpa.The film digresses from a unique crudely hilarious film into a Hollywood formula romance as the humor tapers off with stale gags. Aubrey Plaza was better than Viagra in her role. The film makes fun off societal norms in favor of the drug filled, save the planet and party bunch...but then that is to be expected. Funnier than most teen sex comedies minus all the gratuitous nudity.Guide: Plenty of swearing. Brief sex. Very brief nudity.

This film was so painful to watch. Nothing new here, it's just a spring break movie with Grandpa as one of the college kids. De Niro and Efron must have read some other script to even have been on board. The supporting cast delivered their lines horribly. The characters of Tan Pam and Cousin Nick lacked any formal education in acting. The 2 cops in the film watched Superbad and thought they could be Bill & Seth - not even close. Maybe it was the script or possibly the direction, but I felt the film lacked any funny material.
