This is a movie that desperately wants to be a raunchy, politically incorrect, gross-out comedy. It gets as far as desperate.
Liz Braun, Toronto Sun

Nothing is rendered in a particularly funny or novel way - it's just crude, shocking statements. Therefore, the film isn't actually offensive because it's trying so hard to be and failing miserably.
Katie Walsh, Los Angeles Times
Rotten
Tinged with the sadness of watching a beloved elderly relative making a bloody old fool of himself.
Trevor Johnston, Time Out
Rotten
"Dirty Grandpa" is like watching a friend's mediocre improv troupe do an extended spring-break sketch. And your friend just happens to be Robert De Niro.
Nicolas Rapold, New York Times
Rotten
Crude in nearly every sense of the word, "Dirty Grandpa" is a nasty-humored, poorly made and desperately unfunny film.
