If Dirty Grandpa looks a bit like Bad Grandpa, starring Johnny Knoxville, you could be forgiven for thinking so.
Both feature older male characters mourning the loss of their wives in debaucherous ways.
But where Bad Grandpa was a Jackass style guerilla-style form of filmmaking, Dirty Grandpa is a scripted comedy that has powerhouse Robert De Niro and upcoming powerhouse Zac Efron starring as grandfather and grandson on a road trip to Daytona Beach for Spring Break.
Dirty Grandpa comes to us from director Dan Mazer, who gave us Borat and features Efron as a somewhat uptight young man who is stressing over his upcoming marriage to his fiancé (Julianne Hough). Little by little, it appears from the above teaser, that his grandfather loosens him up and many life lessons are learned.
The film also stars Zoey Deutch, Danny Glover and Dermot Mulroney. Look for Dirty Grandpa to open on January 22.
