    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Jarrod Brom, one of the segment producers on the film, asked his bride-to-be if she would let the production prank their wedding on the condition that none of their friends and family knew what was going on. She only had two stipulations: that the ceremony itself would not be affected, and that her dress would not be harmed.
    • Goofs
      During the "poo on the wall" scene, the splatter on the wall moves after Grandpa makes it. Also the woman sitting behind Billy isn't there but then appears when Grandpa and Billy get up to leave.
    • Quotes

      [from trailer]

      Billy: What's your stripper's stage name?

      Adult bookstore clerk: Do I look like a stripper?

      Billy: I'll just call you Cinnamon.

    • Crazy credits
      The end credits have outtakes and behind-the-scenes looks at Johnny Knoxville performing as Irving in the outrageous stunts, and the reactions of all the unknowing extras when the filmmakers pop out to inform them that they're shooting a movie.

    Not as good as it could've been.
    Bad Grandpa is the fan-favorite skit from the show Jackass, where Johnny Knoxville pretends to be an old man to see how much shenanigans he can pull off, stretched into an hour and a half film. There were certainly some hilarious scenes but unfortunately they tried to turn it into a somewhat serious movie. I don't mean the content was serious, I simply mean that they actually tried to give the film a real plot and story arc and at times it seemed as though that interrupted the humor. About half of the skits are funny and a few are legitimately hilarious but the rest is mainly filler in order to connect the timeline. That was where the movie failed, in my opinion. If you're a Jackass fan, like myself, you won't mind and you'll still enjoy it to an extent. If you're not, then the humor probably isn't for you anyways.
