"Dirty Grandpa" (movie review)

DIRTY GRANDPA
movie poster
The Friday Movie Mavens and The Travelling Toe, braved the chilly morning and journeyed out to the local multiplex to see the new release "Dirty Grandpa".  The movie stars Robert de Niro and Zac Efron.  

Zac plays Jason Kelly who is one week away from getting married to Meredith Goldstein.  She happens to be the daughter of his boss.  Also, she is ultra controlling and Jason just goes along with her decisions about their wedding plans.  

After Jason's grandmother dies, he is talked into driving his grandfather Dick Kelly (Robert De Niro) down to Boca Raton.  But Grandpa has other ideas.  They end up in Dayton during spring break.  Jason runs into an old girlfriend and the 2 guys are invited to a party.  Jason does not want to go but Dick sure does as he think he can get "lucky" at the party. And it goes down hill from there.  One can see right through the plot line just like cellophane.   

Well Dear Readers, The Travelling Toe must leave the overview there as after about 50 minutes of this movie, we chose to leave and do something better with our lives.

Perhaps De Niro received a bonus for each F-word that he used along with several others not to be repeated in this blog.  If so, he should be a millionaire by now just for this movie.

The Travelling Toe declines to give this movie a rating since we did not stay for the entire production.  It is rated "R" due to graphic language and nudity, drug abuse and crude sexual content through the movie.

So go see it if you think you can handle all that gross and stupid  behavior...we opted out.
