Are you excited for the newest edition to the Jackass franchise? I know I am! This upcoming film is most definitely going to be one of the greatest comedies of the year, I can almost assure you, even surpassing We’re the Millers in comedic genius.
Starring Johnny Knoxville in his infamous “old man” makeup, this film follows the grand road trip of 86-year-old Irving Zisman and his grandson, Billy. Although fictional characters, Irving and Billy vex hundreds of people in real life, not acting, and catch their reactions on film. Though the plot may be a little weak, the stunts are absolutely hilarious.
If a movie can make me roll on the floor with laughter after only viewing its trailer, well, it’s got a thumbs-up from me.
Comedy, just like story-writing, is a delicate art, and Johnny Knoxville and his crew are extremely talented at what they do. In comedy, timing is key, and the performances in this movie look so intricately put together, even though to some they may seem messy or last-minute. Though some find the entire Jackass franchise disgusting, vile, or just plain stupid, I find it daring, inventive, and adroit at giving us, the viewers, a hearty laugh.
This movie will be released on Oct 25, 2013. Bad Grandpa, although not for everybody, is a film that I will definitely be watching.
See you at the movies!
