For those of you craving some previews with an edge, we have a pair of red-band trailers that aren’t afraid to let the f-bombs fly! The first features DeNiro in a role that I think we all feel is well overdue! DIRTY GRANDPA follows Jason Kelly (Zac Efron), who is tricked into driving his foul-mouthed grandfather, Dick (Robert De Niro), to Daytona for spring break. Between riotous frat parties, bar fights, and an epic night of karaoke, Dick is on a quest to live his life to the fullest and bring Jason along for the ride. Check out some of the action below!
The second red-band trailer features Melissa Rauch as a foul-mouthed former gymnastics bronze medalist who must fight for her local celebrity status when a new young athlete’s star rises in town. Now here’s one gymnast who can stand toe to toe with any sailor! Check out the red-band trailer for THE BRONZE!
Both of these flicks seem to know exactly the audience they’re aiming for, and may prove to be some nice, lite entertainment under the guise of that beautiful R-rating that eludes most comedic efforts. Hell, as far as I’m concerned, DeNiro’s role is worth the price of admission. Here’s hoping the flick lives up to the potential.
DIRTY GRANDPA will open on January 22, 2016, while THE BRONZE will hit theaters on March 11, 2016.
