About Movie :
At the end of Dirty Grandpa, the title character played by Robert De Niro finds himself alone with the nymphomaniacal college student he has been pursuing for most of the movie.
Pretend you’ve fallen over and can’t get up, she says as she pushes him on to the bed. I’ve fallen and I can’t get up, he dutifully replies. There follows an escalating interchange based on the premise that she’s turned on by the elderly, as she breathlessly asks him to repeat phrases such as, “This neighbourhood used to be safer” or “The buttons on the remote are too small and I can’t find Fox News.”
The social satire here flirts continually with the offensive – as good comedy should. It’s not half-bad stuff from neophyte screenwriter John Phillips, and could be funny, but the scene is so flatly directed by Dan Mazer that it’s remarkably lifeless for a, umm … climax. By this point in the movie, Aubrey Plaza’s deadpan dirty talk is becoming repetitive while De Niro wears that dazed “What am I doing here?” expression.
You have to sympathize with his confusion: Yes, what exactly is the once-great dramatic actor doing here, in a spring-break buddy flick? It’s the third time in six months that De Niro has shown up in a weakly directed comic role. As well as this grotesque grandpa ogling the girls and sticking his thumb up his grandson’s bum, he has recently played the overbearing dad in Joy and the gentlemanly title character in The Intern.
To some extent, the answer lies in the choice of parts. The intern was a helpful senior who didn’t want to stop working; the grandpa is a lusty widower who doesn’t want to stop loving. The man simply refuses to stop.
Still, in a week where, coincidentally, Charlotte Rampling and Tom Courtenay are opening in the excellent 45 Years, you have to wonder if part of the problem may be that De Niro also refuses to take a pay cut. Surely, there are some smaller dramatic roles or genuinely indie projects available that might actually serve his talent instead of submerging it beneath the worst caricatures of Hollywood ageism.
The premise here is that the recently widowed and ready-to-party Dick Kelly (De Niro) persuades his uptight grandson Jason (Zac Efron) to drive him to Florida during spring break, ostensibly because he’s lost his driver’s licence. The obnoxious Dick hasn’t had sex in 15 years; the repressed Jason is about to marry the controlling daughter of his father’s law partner. (The bridezilla stereotype is pretty tired, but Julianne Hough is note-perfect as the type.)
