Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa

"Jackass Present: Bad Grandpa" - starring Johnny Knoxville & Jackson Nicoll.

This movie was hilarious, I loved it.  Knoxville plays the recently widowed Grandpa Irving Zisman who is tasked with driving his grandson Billy across country to his real father after Billy's mother is sent to prison. While irritated with Billy at first, Grandpa and Bill bond along their journey.   

I'd describe it as kind of a combination of the "Jackass" movies and "Borat".  There were all sort of crazy stunts/gags played on real unsuspecting people with hidden cameras.  Watching the reactions of the people in the movie was priceless.

Johnny Knoxville was outstanding as the heavily made up Grandpa and Jackson Nicoll was tremendous as the 8 year old Billy.

The scene at the child beauty pageant was one of the funnies that I've seen in quite awhile. 

Hopefully, the Jackass crew continues to make this type of movie as I think that they may have found their niche.

I'll give this movie 4 out of 5 stars (*****).
