the leading man is my tpye

This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

The movie had some charm, and a bumbling comedic uplift.. Some great actors. Technically Looked sharp, fault with the clichéd way overdone plot.. May have worked better if the grandpas' were 10 years younger..Kinda sad, to see these great actors, have aged so much..Still it was a 'feel good' piece of fluff movie..It did get me to laugh and smile a few t times. I did enjoy it, Given the material they had to work with, all actors did a great job..

Well, I saw De Niro's Grandpa and found it awful. Right now, I thought "this one cannot be worst, it should be better".Ouch. Leave Grandpas alone."Undercover Grandpa" is just plain dumb. You can't believe the story for a single second ! Watch Caan having trouble to just walk away, and suddenly, doing hand fight almost like JCVD...unbelievable. The whole thing is a total mess.The girl playing as Angie is a bad actress, she looks "lost".If you really want to see what "old" actors can still do, I suggest you to watch "RED" and "RED 2", they are much better. And avoid "undercover grandpa" at all cost.

How did something with such potential, at least on paper, go so wrong? Everything was there, the writers, actors, directer, producers & yet this is all they managed to come up with? Clichéd, hackneyed & plain ridiculous. I wonder if they all lost a bet & the penalty was to be involved with this production? Terrible all round. Don't waste time on this dud, just click along to the next on your viewing list.

Most of us over 70 could not manage to work as hard as these guys did to produce this film. I asked my husband if he enjoyed the movie and he said he did. He is 75. Maybe the bad reviewers are too young and critical to appreciate a film about old people. It is not a great movie but it is also not a terrible one. Lower your expectations and sit back and enjoy a few old people jokes and the fact that 70 plus guys can actually make a reasonable movie. Caan is a good actor and he carries the film along with some help from his buddies. The two young ones do a reasonable job as well. They are older than the characters they are portraying. There are no earth shattering scenes or fast chases but the storyline is okay. It is about rescuing a damsel in distress by her boyfriend and his grandfather along with some aged buddies. There is no trick photography or devices used to make it faster paced or more exciting. Expect an okay movie and if you are over 70 it will help.
