Listen I love ridiculous concepts and this is one of those movies! The film left me laughing the entire way through! It's the first tubi original I did not hate! I loved this movie and I spent an entire month watching nothing but comedies when I came across this one. I didn't expect to like it much but I chose the film because I'm a fan of Evan Stern (Letterkenny) he's the one that plays the character who always says "ssstewarrrrrrt" incase you don't recognize the name! Anyways yeah I recommend the film especially if you love comedies that are just made for sheer fun and not going out of its way to be something "special".
I didn't have any high expectations from "Don't Mess With Grandma," but I have to admit that in the end, I was entertained...and that's pretty much all I ask of a movie.
Michael Jai White plays a former Special Forces soldier who is visiting his grandma. She is hard of hearing as well as hard of seeing, which allows the unlikely plot of him being able to spend all night hiding the fact that droves of robbers are trying to steal her blind...so to speak. Said robbers are led by a barely recognizable Billy Zane, hidden behind a really absurd mustache.
The situations truly are ridiculous, but the cast doesn't take it seriously and is able to walk that "fine line between stupid and clever." White does a nice job with the humor, although the soliloquies are a little long. But if you can suspend disbelief long enough and just take the movie on its own attempt at mindless entertainment, you can probably enjoy it. It is what it is. Nothing special, but good for a few chuckles.

This movie was put on Tubi because it probably didn't have a top budget. However, unlike most Tubi movies, the main character acted in true gangster style. The other characters were all over the place. I didn't hate the movie and was so I gave it a 9/10. I would have likely goven it a solid 10 if a little more was put into the storyline.
One thing about Tubi is if you get established actors you might get a wonderful movie. Again, this one was very good! To be honest, I could see a part two to this movie. It would love to see more back story. There was some real moments of acting & I appreciate that.

I watched "Don't Mess With Grandma" because I have enjoyed some of Michael Jai White's other films, in particular, the cult favorite "Black Dynamite". And, while White once again beats the snot out of some jerks, this time he's older, less confident and not quite the invincible superhero.
Jasper (White) goes to his grandma's house and it soon is clear her hearing isn't very good and she's a tad oblivious. During this time at her house, some burglars arrive and try to break in...and Jasper pummels them. So, they bring more friends, and Jasper pummels them...and his grandma's pitbull kills one of them. So, they bring in more friends. Why? And, what's next? See the film.
This is not a great film but made me laugh quite a few times. I also appreciate how White is now well into his 50s...and while tough, he's NOT the man of steel. A clever comedy...though also one with an obviously low budget and modest pretensions. Worth seeing it you like White's work...otherwise, you might be able to skip this one.

Great and fun movie with a since of nostalgia. I would describe the movie as a lighthearted but mature home alone. MJW is fantastic, hilarious, and loveable, as always. Solid 9 for me personally, I enjoyed the entire film. Iv always felt White is such an amazing and definitely over looked talent in the film industry. With his extensive martial arts training and choreography skills sets him a step above alone but he's also great at any chacter personality. Very comedic with great timing , has the ability to play a convincing underdog or a dominating force. If your a fan of martial arts/action films he has an impressive and entertaining library that I would recommend.

- WissenswertesOn the second day of filming, the original assistant director was heavily inebriated while driving the director, cinematographer, and script supervisor to the set. Realizing the danger they were in while speeding and swerving on a highway, the director gently "directed" the intoxicated driver to pull over. The AD stumbled out of the car and immediately fell asleep when hoisted into the passenger's seat-this left production without an AD until a replacement stepped in weeks later. Later, a note was delivered to the director from the original AD thanking him for taking care of him. The director then ripped the note apart, ate it, and stated, "That's something considering I wanted to beat the shit out of him."
