Fans of the zany Jackass TV show and film series won’t want to miss Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa, starring Johnny Knoxville as 86-year-old Irving Zisman and Jackson Nicoll as Billy, Irving’s 8-year-old grandson.
As the unlikely pair embarks on a crazy road trip, Irving introduces the young and impressionable Billy to people, places and situations that give new meaning to the concept of parenting.
During their journey, the pair encounters male strippers, disgruntled child beauty pageant contestants and their mothers, funeral home mourners, motorcycle gang members and various other unsuspecting citizens.
The combination of real people in surreal situations makes for a very messy comedy adventure.
Catch the action and laughs when Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa hits local cinemas on January 23.
