Dirty Grandpa is just that: dirty. What was marketed as a raunchy road-trip comedy starring Zac Efron and THE Robert DeNiro was a entirely off-brand, offensive spewage of derogatory remarks, sexism, homophobia and rampant racism. (Seriously, DeNiro says the n-word TWICE in a single scene.) Everyone involved in Dirty Grandpa — from director Dan Mazer to the slew of actors, even the lesser-known ones, whose talents are far too seasoned to stoop so low as this horrific excuse for a “comedy” “film” — should feel deeply ashamed of their commitment to and acceptance of the project, its content and its nature. Dirty Grandpa isn’t just the worst film I saw in 2016; it’s the worst film I have seen full-stop. Avoid it like your worst ex. – AJ Chase
