Red hot after his incendiary performance as this year’s Oscar host, Billy Crystal is on a hype train that’s never derailing. Here he is in Parental Guidance, playing Bette Midler’s husband and Marisa Tomei’s dad, who rolls into town to show these young whipper snappers how the Greatest Generation did things. He’s sick of your cell phones and your coddling parenting and your TSA pat downs and your hippity hop music. Jeez, this is like an Aaron Sorkin script without the politics. TWITTER ROTS YOUR BRAIN, INTERNET GIRL! YA THINK?!
“Grandpa tells lots of jokes that you won’t get. Just laugh.”
Aw, that’s mean.
Ooh, nut shot in the trailer! Nut shot in the trailer!




This needs Peter Dante to come out Bucky Larson style and say “Parental Guidance…..rated RRRRRR”.
Marisa Tomei: Goddamn, I would smash that so hard…
This deserves to be reiterated. I would totally wreck that chick.
Oh look. They’re pulling up to that one house used for these types of movies.
Technology is so difficult amirite seniors? Young people be all like this, and we older people be all like this!
And what’s the deal with caller ID?
Wax Grandparents the Movie!
“You’re old and out of touch!”
“You’re young and disrespectful!”
*two hours later
“I’m glad we could come to an understanding that was never reached in forty years in the span of a week or so. I Love you.”
*group hug, teary eyes
The End.
This movie requires Parental Guidance because my parents should be required to come along and explain to me how the f*#k Bette Midler and Billy Chrystal are famous.
hold it right there, City Slickers
City Slickers was awesome, but I’ve wasted countless hours worried about the size of my craps.
