Bad Grandpa (2013)
Directed by Jeff
Tremaine this film stars Johnny Knoxville, Jackson Nicoll, Greg
Harris and Georgina Cates. Following the death of his wife and his
daughter going to prison an old man has to take his grandson cross
country to be with his father.
Unlike previous
Jackass films this film mixes a fictional plot with stunts involving
the unaware public. No doubt this film would not be as funny without
the non-actor reactions but it sort of loses any emotional depth to
the story by constantly reminding you of it's fakery. Some moments in
the film are really hilarious (although the finale is disappointingly
straight out of Little Miss Sunshine (2006)) and this is an
interesting attempt at something different.
4/5
