Critics Consensus

Never quite as funny as it wants to be, Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa still offers viewers the timeless pleasures of seeing an old man get his privates stuck in a vending machine.

The wrongs pile up, and there's a clear object of satire. That feels new for the Jackass experience: a target that isn't a crotch. I'd like to see Irv try to strike again with braver gags.

Onlookers occasionally glance into the camera, a pretty good sign that people are hip to these prankster movies now and just play along.

1/5

Secondhand gags, third-rate execution, fourth-rate results.

Plenty of things want to be funny, but Bad Grandpa bites off more than its dentures can chew this time around.

Amidst all the chaos and naughtiness, there's an unabashed celebration of the human spirit here that left me simultaneously laughing and crying.

You can laugh at poop and fart jokes for only so long; sooner or later all the pooping and farting will start to stink.

Laugh-out-loud funny. The reason it works so will is the unsuspecting bystanders to the pranks. Just ordinary people witnessing one outrageous stunt after another.

Meh. I like Knoxville I really do and it had some ok parts and some heartfelt parts but the movie just wasn't very good and the pranks were super subpar. I am ok with seeing ti but would never keep in my collection.
