Review of Dirty Grandpa (2016) by Ydnar4 — 24 Jan 2016

Dirty Grandpa gives you exactly what you would expect when you read the title. The film is raunchy as it gets. Robert De Niro is so funny as the most wild grandpa that anyone could ever have and he has surprisingly great chemistry with Zac Efron.

Robert De Niro has been known to dip into comedy here and there but this is certainly as "dirty" as he has gotten and I would say that it is the funniest film I have seen him in a long time.

Efron is also really good in this movie. I think that he's one of the more underrated actors in Hollywood right now. Sadly outside of the humor that I thought was fairly plentiful this movie does not have a whole lot more to offer.

There are a few members of the supporting cast that are fairly good Aubrey Plaza could be as funny as I've ever seen her which is saying something. Zoey Deutch was great and I'm sure that her "girl next door" personality will get her roles in some more films soon.

Dirty Grandpa is pretty predictable in the third act which brags it down and there are a few characters that take up a little too much of the screen time rather than focus on the character that we like.

Its not a perfect movie but I can recommend it to people who love great laughs.
