Jackass Presents : Bad Grandpa (2013) 7/10

Starring : Johnny Knoxville, Jackson Niccoll
Director : Jeff Tremaine
Running Time : 103 mins

Following the death of his wife and the incarceration of his daughter, octogenarian Irving Zisman (Knoxville) takes a cross country trip with his grandson Billy (Niccoll) to get him to his real father who has been charged with taking care of him. Along the way Irving tries to teach his grandson some valuable life lessons, including how to pick up women, and Billy soon starts to wish he could stay with his grandpa forever.

If you’ve ever seen Betty White’s Off Their Rockers and Jackass, then you can pretty much imagine what this is about. Grandpa gets thrown about the place and injured in various imaginative ways that would kill any true elderly fellow. This movie benefits from the presence of Jackson Niccoll, the young actor who anyone who’s seen Fun Size will know is going to be a future acting genius. This is fun filled and action packed, and fans of silliness will enjoy every minute of this.
