Review of Dirty Grandpa (2016) by Gert777 — 05 Mar 2016

I gave this film a 1 because I don't really believe in giving movies a zero. But Dirty Grandpa barely passes as a movie. While I understand that the title and previews are supposed to weed out certain viewers, I went into the theater with the appropriate mindset: it was going to be funny, and nothing else.

I found it to be more awkward and stupid than hilarious. The writing is beyond awful, and the characters are so one-dimensional they might as well have put paper cutouts of Zac Efron and Robert Deniro on camera.

The humor is just uncomfortable, and not because I find the topics in the movie to be inherently unfunny. It's because of the delivery and the aforementioned terrible writing. One of the worst movies I have seen in a long time.
