Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story

Pluskylang Great Film overall

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Paul Magne Haakonsen I didn't know what to expect when I sat down to watch this movie. And the reason why I did sit down to watch it was James Caan, pure and simple.This movie was actually surprisingly better than I had dared to think it to be.The storyline was good and entertaining, although somewhat predictable and generic. But it was the absurdity of the situations and the older actors that really made this an outstanding movie with their memorable performances.There were some nice actors and actresses performing in "Undercover Grandpa", with the likes of James Caan, Louis Gossett Jr., Kenneth Welsh and Jessica Walter.There is lots of action, well more or less taking into consideration the age of most of the people here. "Undercover Grandpa" was actually fun and wholesome entertainment for the entire family.

whitemanfromtowne Not sure why people are trying to compare this film to Red, to me the story didn't seem like it was competing against it. It was more laid back and silly to be that intense. A great cast of icons, that I guess were happy to be making a movie up in age. Nothing against seniors, but this movie was just bad. The story, and the acting was just not good. It felt like a satire film without the target to satire. James Caan is legend, but he should've (as well as the other legends) should've said no to this awful script. Watch the trailer it says it all. Great to see the oldies but goodies, I just wished they were in something more film worthy. And one more thing, can the bad guys be from somewhere else other than the place that speak with Russian dialogue. Tired of every film they are the villains. Also not a big fan of Dylan Everett. You can take or leave this film, not recommended.

elizaa-753-846939 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.

Larry Silverstein I would say don't waste your time viewing this below B-quality mess of a movie. The humor is ham-fisted and the plot elements are silly and rather ridiculous, plus the age jokes get really tiresome.The story revolves around 17-year-old Jake Bouchard (Dylan Everett) whose friend Angie has been kidnapped by a General wanted for war crimes and who is holding her in a heavily guarded warehouse. Jake will enlist the help of his grandfather Major Lou Crawford (James Caan), a former Canadian Special Forces officer from decades before, to help him free Angie. The Major will in turn enlist the help of his former military team to assist in the attack.I'm sorry to say, it's nice to see such stalwarts of the silver screen as Caan, Louis Gossett Jr., Paul Sorvino, and Jessica Walter in a film together but not in a rather lame vehicle like this.
