The tale of two mob bosses; Frank Costello (Robert De Niro) and Vito Genovese (Robert De Niro). Childhood friends, they rose through the ranks of New York organised crime together. But their differing views led to an intense rivalry. One that exploded into violence in 1957, when Vito tried to have Frank killed. Over 25 years ago, Robert De Niro starred in Analyze This , a gangster comedy that referenced the infamous 'Apalachin Meeting'. This was a gathering of mafia bosses from across the US and beyond, famously stumbled upon by New York State Troopers. Now he's back to tell the real story. For the most part it is a fairly standard gangster tale of friendships, rivalries, extreme violence, big cars, and whisperings between some rather animated men in clubs ranging from the somewhat dingy - the movie is named for one such club - to the incredibly fancy. Only this story is told in much the same way your grandfather reminisces about his life... that is, if your grandfather was...

Before we start I don't want to hear a load of crap about how this will never live up to De Niro's classics. This is not a review of Robert De Niro or his career, it's a review of his latest film Dirty Grandpa. Images courtesy of Google Images The film is about a widower (De Niro) who convinces his grandson (Efron) to drive him to Florida in an attempt to regain his youth (have sex) and show his grandson how to have fun. De Niro and Efron work well as grandfather and grandson, watching De Niro misbehave and humiliate Efron is hilarious. Watch out for Efron doing the Macarena! It's no Oscar winner but it is a fun film about remembering to enjoy life and not to let others make your choices for you! That said, if you watch Dirty Grandpa expecting Oscar material you're clearly an idiot...watch the trailer. The goal of this movie is to make people laugh, and maybe cringe. Both of which this movie achieves.  Told you you'd cringe! I went to the cinema ...
