I recently saw this movie for the first time, and then watched Goodfellas for the first time, later that same day. The fact that Robert De Niro is in both of these is mind-blowing. But let's not dwell on De Niro's wasted talents. Perhaps, as he got older, he was ready to try something really fun. And this movie is fun. It's pretty bad, the grandpa's fking terrible, and there is absolutely NO chemistry between Zac Efron and his love interest, but Aubrey Plaza's hilariously weird performance saves this movie. I'll never watch it again, but, as we say often on the pod, it's not the worst thing I've ever seen.
