Dirty Papy

Dirty Grandpa is a comedy film directed by Dan Mazer and written by John Philips. The film stars Robert De Niro, Zac Efron, Zoey Deutch and Aubrey Plaza. After Jason's grandmother dies and just before his marriage, his grandfather asks him to go on a road trip to Daytona Beach, Fla., and there's where Jason learns a couple of lessons from his "dirty grandpa". I found this movie really funny most of the time and I couldn't stop laughing at a lot of the jokes. I suppose that a lot of these negative reviews for this movie are from people who think that this movie is against their "morals". But it doesn't really matter, cause Dirty Grandpa has been a box office success and a lot of people liked it, including me. Zac Efron is really funny, he has shown that he's got comedic guts over and over again. I am becoming a fan of as I keep on seeing him in these kind of movies . Robert De Niro is also awesome on the role all throughout. I also really liked the supporting characters, especially Jason Mantzoukas as a drug dealer who had me laughing every time he was on screen. Sure this movie isn't nowhere near a comedic masterpiece and nor is it trying to be. It is a fun ride from beginning to end, and despite all the clichés, the jokes are what make this ride worth it.

This might be a great movie for some audiences, obviously there are enough people who like such things, considering that they keep making them and they become box-office hits. This movie relies on the typical American exclusive sensation, on its dirtiness and dark humour. I'm a person who is able to take a joke and understands dark humour, but this movie is purely dirty, banal and unfunny. Many of the actors are overacting in their characters' dirtiness. It is pretty much a messed up commercial sh*t like Ted 2, except that at least there is not a living teddy bear married to a slutty drug addict (thank God). It's lame how they mix up the banal sentimental moments with the tasteless humour and the totally disgusting dirty moments which are supposed to be entertaining. It's full of movies like this that have banal plots plus random dumb moments filled with massive drug use. Other than that, it's well-shot. At least this we could expect to be nice. It's not too bad if we take the fact I watched it at home and managed to watch until the end.

Normally don't have patience for crude comedy but had to check it out as a Robert DeNiro fan. Definitely didn't disappoint (even with crudeness). Had plenty of laughs and plenty of insensitive crudeness to cover every area that would offend folks BUT it's advertised as this so only view if you can accept it for what it is! Maybe if viewers did a better job researching/listening to the advertisements they wouldn't be disappointed or expecting more than what's intended (sighing).

Great job of acting by all and even has a moral to the story for most!

Just saw Dirty Grandpa with a theater full of 60- and 70-somethings (myself included). Appropriately, it was a 10:50 a.m. showing. I can tell you that everyone - my wife and 86-yr-old father-in-law included - were howling at this thing. Sure it was over-the-top gross, but it was also very, very funny. The final scene between Aubrey Plaza and DeNiro had me laughing so hard I had tears running down my cheeks. I can't believe all of the god-awful reviews I'm reading for this movie. I have to admit that I love Aubrey Plaza, so watching her interact with DeNiro was a real treat (and consistently funny). Zac Efron was solid as the grandson ... and had to have been an incredibly good sport to put up with all he had to in his role. I say, if you're over 60 and not offended by raunchy humor, give this movie a chance. I thought it was great!

So comedies are a sensitive subject to the general population and especially in this day and age, you have to watch what is said because EVERYONE is suddenly so sensitive. Well, to start this section off, I will genuinely say that if you do not appreciate vulgar R-Rated comedies, do not see this movie. On another note, I thought this movie was absolutely hilarious. Dirty Grandpa presents Robert De Niro in a way mostly never seen before. He rips out insults and jokes like he is a freshly turned 21-year-old in a 72- year-old body. Zac presents himself as a very uptight and by-the- book lawyer that has a free-spirited past that he has since lost due to the strictness of his father yet as soon as that uptight side is broken, this film is a wild ride as the two tear apart the beaches of Florida. This movie is purely a joke film, the story is forced in for the sake of film but it still works, kind of. Nonetheless, if you want to watch a very vulgar comedy and want to watch a 72-year- old like never seen before, this is the comedy to watch to start off your year. Raunchy inappropriateness at its finest.
