Bad Grandpa (2013)

Sometimes it's a delicate comedy-drama with Oscar-worthy performances and touches of "A Streetcar Named Desire." And sometimes it's a foul-mouthed "Candid Camera" full of poop jokes and starring Johnny Knoxville in old-man makeup.

Even at its low ebb, the movie effuses an infectious, mischief-making joy.

No one will ever mistake the Jackass franchise for good cinema, but it never aspired to that. It was always about allowing the gleeful anarchy of the TV series to escape the constraints of television — to be more outrageous, gross, and profane than the FCC would ever allow.

True to the Jackass formula, some gags come off better than others, but there's some doozies in its midst.

Some of these gags are hilarious.
