Movie Review - War With Grandpa

It's rare to come across a PG movie these days, especially one that is entertaining.

War With Grandpa is a 2020 live-action comedy. It is rated PG for mild content and is appropriate for all ages.

The Good

Casting. This movie was perfectly cast. Everyone does a great job and fits their role perfectly.

Concept. The concept is pretty clever. Grandpa is too old to live on his own, so his daughter forces him to move in with her family and displaces her son to the attic sparking a war. The point of the movie is to show the damage that comes from any war, no matter how small. It gets a little heavy handed at the end, but otherwise it good.

 

The Bad

Prosaic. The movie is very enjoyable, but if you've seen the trailer and/or thought about what could go into such a movie, you won't be surprised. Nothing was especially clever or surprising.

 

What I Would Like To Have Seen

I wish they would have been a little more clever and imaginative in the different situations and pranks.
