Who are the "Eccentrics", every second knows today. Reckless guys who risk their lives and health for their own entertainment and, of course, have arrived. To date, “Eccentrics” have shot several shows, TV shows and films based on their activities. However, in the case of "An Unbearable Grandfather," the guys decided to try themselves as the creators of feature films. But, whatever one may say, the influence of the creators-lovers of extreme sports did not pass without a trace. Does the first pancake always come out lumpy, or did “Eccentrics” manage to make a really solid comedy? Now we find out!
Plot tie
Irving Zisman is a man of respectable age. It’s hard even to say how he was able to live for so many years, but this is, as they say, lyrics. His not-so-prosperous daughter is caught breaking the law and found herself behind bars for crime. Now Irving is holding an unbearable grandson in his arms, who needs to be kept in his home, and then safely fused to his father. In general, a man’s period is not the most pleasant. My wife recently died, something must be decided with the funeral, there is not so much money. But Irving with a proudly raised hump on his back suffers all hardships, takes a careless grandson and sets off to travel across endless American spaces.
The father of the child himself is not eager to accept a stray child of his own production, but the prospect of receiving $ 600 per month of social payments for a fool changes his decision. On the way, the grandfather and grandson become real friends, participating in the wildest and most unimaginable situations.
The film "The Unbearable Grandfather" himself, whose actor did an excellent job of his role (we will talk about him later), was shot with the effect of a hidden camera. It’s like someone outsider is watching the adventures of a strange grandfather and his grandson, takes it off to his phone, and then uploads it to social networks. An interesting solution, and the implementation did not disappoint, it turned out pretty high quality, given that the film does not have millions of budgets.
Release movie and stage of creation
Russian distributors, given the conservatism of most viewers, decided to politely not mention that the film was created by the very guys who set fire to their pubic hair and beat each other with sticks. In general, the list of feats of “Miracles” can be continued for a long time, but for this a separate article would be needed.
It may seem that “Eccentrics” is a gang that can only destroy everything that it sees. But their sober approach to making the film showed, on the contrary, that the guys had sanity and calculation. Unlike the previous works of this team, “The Unbearable Grandfather” (actor Joni Knoxville) has a clear plot plot, and the humor in the film raised the bar from “Hey, let me hit you in the groin on the bike” to “Look, grandpa is freaking out in striptease-” the club. " This, of course, is growth, which means that the filmmakers understand that it would be impossible to recoup the film using methods of a decade ago. It is also worth noting that the actors of the film "The Unbearable Grandfather" (starting from the main characters - grandfather and grandson, and ending with the second-order ones) just did a wonderful job. Thanks to them, the picture found its audience. Let's learn more about the main characters.
"Unbearable Grandfather": actor
Now is the time to talk about who made the picture so realistic. The name of the actor "Unbearable grandfather" - Knoxville. Beautiful make-up, wonderful reincarnation - if Stanislavsky drank beer in the porches, he would definitely say the cherished “Believe!”. Joni Knoxville coped with his task so well that even for moments the viewer begins to think about its adequacy in real life.
By the way, the story of Irving was originally conceived only as an episode for the fourth part of the full-length “Eccentrics”. But the guys liked this image so much that they decided to make a film dedicated to this particular character. How right this decision was, decide for yourself.
Comedy component
Johnny Knoxville and his team generally have a peculiar view of what a comedy should be. Their humor, as they say, "is not for children, women and the faint of heart." Constantly on the verge of a foul, constantly ironic over modern society, the humor in the film may resemble both the animated series "Family Guy" and the work of Sasha Baron Cohen. That is, this humor is far from for everyone, but he certainly found his audience and lover.
Throughout the film "The Unbearable Grandfather," the actor, the eccentric grandfather, will poke his genitals where, without getting into it, emit biological gases in public catering facilities, demolish road signs and much, much more. It’s impossible now to reveal all the trump cards of the film, then you will not be interested in watching. But once again it is worth warning that if you are not a fan of such humor, then you can put a cross on the film immediately, it is unlikely that you will like it.
"Unbearable Grandfather": actors and roles
I would also like to be surprised at the acting skills of young Jackson Nicholl, who played the role of the grandson of an Unbearable grandfather in the film. Who knows, maybe in 20 years he will remember this role with pain and a shudder, but he played amazingly here. To have such endurance, such a talent for improvisation at such a young age - the young man is a true spiritual heir to the “Miracles”.
Summary
The film "Unbearable Grandfather", the actors and roles of which were presented to your attention in the article, does not at all claim the title of a masterpiece of cinema. No, this is just an attempt by those same guys from “Eccentrics” to remove something of their own, with a soul, for their ideological brothers. Easy to understand, sometimes vulgar humor will please comedians with Adam Sandler and Rob Schneider. Perhaps this is not the best choice for sharing with young children. The target audience of such films is people aged 12 to 30, when childhood still plays in the fifth point. With age, of course, it becomes difficult to perceive such films, but the project will undoubtedly find its fans.
The question remains how much Johnny Knoxville himself is pleased with his work. It is possible that in the near future we will witness the birth of yet another work in feature films from The Eccentrics, but the guys themselves have not yet made any promises.
