Plots(1)
Jason Kelly (Zac Efron) is one week away from marrying his boss's uber-controlling daughter, putting him on the fast track for a partnership at the law firm. However, when the straight-laced Jason is tricked into driving his foul-mouthed grandfather, Dick (Robert De Niro), to Daytona for spring break, his pending nuptials are suddenly in jeopardy. Between riotous frat parties, bar fights, and an epic night of karaoke, Dick is on a quest to live his life to the fullest and bring Jason along for the ride. Ultimately, on the wildest journey of their lives, "dirty" Grandpa and his uptight grandson discover they can learn from one another and form the bond they never had. (Lionsgate US)

I didn't give it 4 stars only because the pace was needlessly slowed down at the end with overblown romance that seemed completely out of place. Even though the humor was mostly crude, overusing the f-word, it worked just fine for me. It’s not supposed to be an intellectual film with some sort of a deeper meaning. It’s a feel-good comedy that lets you switch off and relax, and I sure did.

An almost five-star comedy after a long time. The pair Robert De Niro-Zac Efron is absolutely amazing, especially De Niro drops one wisecrack after another in his old age and he is not interested in anything else but to have sex with sexy schoolgirl Aubrey Plaza!! :D The highlight is definitely the scene where Zac Efron smokes crack and what follows after that is literally to tear the diaphragm. Solid, perverted and with a strong erotic touch. Great. More comedies like this. 85%.

A great example of a comedy that will be appreciated more by men than by women. The thing is that Robert De Niro’s character can somehow be understood if you are a man, but if you are a woman and on top of that a hard-core feminist, any allusion to anything will to you seem quite racist and very personal. And that may be why there are several Boo! ratings here, which is something I don’t understand. I laughed from the heart a couple of times. Does that make me a bad person?

Dirty Grandpa lures with with its references to Robert De Niro's earlier comedies with , but in this case, unfortunately, it is not as good a piece of work. I don't mind foul language or a dash of toilet humour, but here it felt over the line and completely misused in places. I laughed a few times, I won’t deny that, but I rather thought that De Niro doesn't need such films and that we, the audience, could do without them.
