Jackass: bad Grandpa

I can't believe there isn't already a thread for this

86-year-old Irving Zisman takes a trip from Nebraska to North Carolina to take his 8 year-old grandson, Billy, back to his real father.

Watched it last night. Hands down the funniest comedy I’ve ever laid eyes on. Seriously, my sides were aching—it was a total riot.

Such a great comedy. I honestly had such a good laugh. Also, if you can, try not to watch the trailer beforehand—you'll enjoy it way more that way.

You seriously need to check this out 🤣

Truly a fantastic movie 👍

Is it actually worth heading out to the cinema, I wonder?

Not really. ☕

I suppose there aren't many truly original jokes to be found here; most of the humor seems to rely heavily on those candid shots of people who apparently didn't realize they were being filmed, which pretty much carries the whole movie. I mean, it might be funny here and there, I guess, but it doesn't feel worth the price of a cinema ticket, especially since the production quality feels rather amateurish.

It is. The movie is basically just a collection of his stunts, though they aren't tightly woven into the plot.
The kid acting is great.

Most importantly, the movie is actually funny—everyone in the theater was laughing.

copperstag95 said:Is it actually worth seeing in theaters?

Totally worth it. Every single cent I dropped on that ticket was money well spent. Honestly? I'd go see it again in a heartbeat.

Surprised me how much I actually liked it—but honestly, skip the theater. It’s more of a cozy "watch it at home with friends" kind of vibe, though if you're a cinephile, go for it.

Overall, it really hit the spot. It isn't trying to be some high-brow masterpiece—not even close—which is exactly what I need from time to time. Like Anthony Booth4 mentioned, the kid is a natural; his acting is solid for his age, which helps a ton. Even if the plot is pretty mindless, I appreciated that there was an actual story there instead of just endless stunts.

8/10

Alright, can someone please explain to me how a 42-year-old goes from being this incredibly handsome, charming actor to... well, whatever he looks like now?
No, I’m not talking about some specific role where he plays a grandpa. I mean his actual appearance. He used to be so good-looking, but watching his recent interviews, he looks like he’s sixty. He’s just withered away and wrinkled. He looks terrible. From what I’ve gathered, he isn't even using drugs anymore...

No, I'm not talking about some role where he plays a grandpa. I mean the actual guy. He used to be so good-looking, but watching his interviews now? This dude looks like he's 60. He’s just withered away and wrinkled. It's honestly rough to look at. From what I've heard, he isn't even on drugs lately...

There was some rumor going around about him having cancer or maybe a skin condition, but honestly, who knows if that's just BS.

Who's to say this isn't all just staged? If those scenes were scripted, then the whole movie is a massive fail. It feels more like some hidden camera prank disguised as a feature film. I guess I expected a bit more from this.

It looks like I’m the only one here who actually hated this movie. I couldn't even finish it—walked out halfway through. It was just too tedious for my taste. 🤷

It’s borderline offensive at times, but then it pivots back into being genuinely funny. The kid is a natural. Honestly, this stands as the most convincing Jackass film I’ve seen yet, and frankly, one of the better comedies to come out in the last few years...🙂🙂

It was pretty bad. I gave it a 2/10, even though I’m usually a huge fan of the Jackass film series.

I’m not really feeling it either. It just feels like they're trying way too hard with the jokes, I guess... maybe a few decent bits here and there, but whatever. My rating? 5/10..

Killer movie.
If you need a good laugh, you seriously gotta check this out 😁

Judging by all the comments on here, I figured this movie might actually be worth my time... so I gave it a shot.

Now I’m just sitting here looking for a way to get those 47 minutes of my life back. I couldn't even make it to the end—and trust me, I've sat through some seriously weird stuff before...

You aren't alone. It's garbage. Honestly? 1/10.
Total trash. It was so cringey I couldn't even watch—turned it off after maybe 15 minutes.

I'm currently looking for a way to get my lost 47 minutes back. I couldn't even finish it. And trust me, I've sat through some absolute garbage from start to finish. Total garbage.

Lesson learned: don't trust the "experts" on this forum. They've proven themselves wrong more times than I can count. If I’d actually paid money for that pile of junk, I’d be in a serious depression right now.
