Critics Consensus

Like a Werther's Original dropped down a sewer drain, Dirty Grandpa represents the careless fumbling of a classic talent that once brought pleasure to millions.

Incompetence combined with the occasional burst of disreputable laughter makes Dirty Grandpa oddly lively for a movie that's largely terrible.

Equal parts bad and baffling, it seems to have been written and directed by alien life forms who read YouTube comment sections for a week and drew these conclusions about human behavior.

This is a movie that desperately wants to be a raunchy, politically incorrect, gross-out comedy. It gets as far as desperate.

The kind of film that, one day, De Niro's great-grandchildren will watch and wonder what all the fuss about him was.

De Niro's legacy as an actor will be cemented with ground breaking films like Casino, Raging Bull, Taxi Driver, Goodfellas and Heat - just to name a few. Dirty Grandpa will not.

Hard to see...my IQ got reduced 10% with this movie. 🤣 Is sad to see two good actors as Zack Efron and De Niro in these poor nonsense movie. Even the jokes are really bad, not even works as a comedy. I'm glad I put this movie as white noise while working and I was really tired, it's the only way you can watch this movie and not lose your faith in Human Race afterwards.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

While Robert De Niro and Zac Efron show flashes of comedic brilliance in Dirty Grandpa, the film's overall unappealing and lack of originality leaves it feeling like a missed opportunity. The rest of its talented cast deserved better, Grading: C-

Ignore those low critics score because this is a funny movie. The A list actors and the jokes are spot on for people that want a good laugh.

I honestly don't understand all the hate this movie gets. Just finally watched it and loved it. Laughed my ass off. Idk if people have an expectation because of De Niro but I love he did this and wasn't his normal schtick. If u wanna laugh and love raunchy comedy. Watch it!
