Very Proper Family Movie
cute
Grandpa Ed (Robert De Niro) has some run-ins with the modern world and is bitter with the lost of his beloved wife. He is forced to move in with his daughter Sally (Uma Thurman). He takes over grandson Peter's room. Peter is not happy and he declares war to take his room back.
This is silly but it's kind of cute and mostly harmless fun. It's perfectly fine entertainment for the whole family. It is very odd to see some of these adult actors doing this stuff. Sometimes the silly antics elicits a few chuckles. Dodgeball has to be a highlight of crotch shots. That's not bad for a simple family flick.
The War with Grandpa
When newly widowed Grandpa Jack (Robert De Niro) moves in with his daughter's family. His grandson Peter (Oakes Fegley) is forced to give up his bedroom and move into the attic.
Peter schemes to get his room back and declares war on his grandpa. However Jack is a war veteran and has a few tricks up his sleeve.
I first thought this was a sequel to Dirty Grandpa. In fact this is a family friendly movie based on the book by children's author Robert Kimmel Smith.
The pranks between Grandpa Jack and Peter are very much in the style of the Home Alone films.
Kids would find this movie amusing. I thought it was uninspired, not very funny, ripping off too many other movies such as Dodgeball. It wastes actors such as Uma Thurman and Christopher Walken.
