Wow...!
Robert De Niro will make your jaw drop...once you see him masturbating furiously on a comfy chair...the more-ish factor kicks in.
Obviously, it's a crude, juvenile road-trip kind-of-a-movie with a Hollywood A-lister...doing things that an actor of this standing ought not to be doing...but, when you get to Bob's status and pedigree...it don't matter much. Have fun, make money...is there any better way to lead your life?
And...Bob looks as if he's having a riot.
Zac Efron is in good shape and not afraid to show it.
Amidst all the 'fun' and frolics...there's a pretty strong gay storyline...that kinda packs a surprising punch...the gay guy, obviously the butt of a few jokes...but, in the end, that butt is pummelled into the faces of a couple of homophobes...well and truly, by Mr De Niro.
Okay...there are a couple of scenes that really do take it to the edge. In particular...Zac naked on a beach, with a bumble-bee and a little boy...some actors ought not do as their director dictates!
Some will find it hilarious, some will find it as offensive as a film can possibly get...but, we all agree on one thing...what some actors ought not do!
