Sunset Superman

If this was going for a 80's feel of action comedy, I don't think it pulled it off. For lack of a good story, the bulk of it is everybody taking turns watching Michael Jai White beat one of them up, or a group of them. The characterisations are probably meant for humor but off-putting to the say the least. There is no believable sincerity in the atmosphere or the motives of all involved, and the characters of Stan and Pam are awkwardly weird. Gran's self-awareness isn't infuriating for what this movie is, but it certainly is cringe by any standard. It's definitely one of those films that make you ask Why, and I can't imagine anyone finding it humorous.

Let's be honest, this is a silly low budget action that never takes itself seriously. And while a plethora of these films exist, this one stands far above the others in its execution and result.

It's absolutely hilarious. About half the comedy is slapstick, the rest a bit self degrading, a bit outrageous, it all just works. It's beyond farcical for most of the runtime, but keeps you watching anyways. Yes, you'll groan a lot, but you'll find yourself keep watching anyways.

The acting is excellent for a film of this nature. Jai White shines brighter than usual due to him having to not take himself seriously as he does in previous pure action roles. You'll recognize the rest of the cast from something you've seen before, notably Billy Zane as an humorous antagonist.

It's short, entertaining, and to the point. I wish we saw a lot more movies of this type - they're far more entertaining than a lot of the stuff coming out today, especially from streaming services.

Great and fun movie with a since of nostalgia. I would describe the movie as a lighthearted but mature home alone. MJW is fantastic, hilarious, and loveable, as always. Solid 9 for me personally, I enjoyed the entire film. Iv always felt White is such an amazing and definitely over looked talent in the film industry. With his extensive martial arts training and choreography skills sets him a step above alone but he's also great at any chacter personality. Very comedic with great timing , has the ability to play a convincing underdog or a dominating force. If your a fan of martial arts/action films he has an impressive and entertaining library that I would recommend.

This movie was put on Tubi because it probably didn't have a top budget. However, unlike most Tubi movies, the main character acted in true gangster style. The other characters were all over the place. I didn't hate the movie and was so I gave it a 9/10. I would have likely goven it a solid 10 if a little more was put into the storyline.

One thing about Tubi is if you get established actors you might get a wonderful movie. Again, this one was very good! To be honest, I could see a part two to this movie. It would love to see more back story. There was some real moments of acting & I appreciate that.

I watched "Don't Mess With Grandma" because I have enjoyed some of Michael Jai White's other films, in particular, the cult favorite "Black Dynamite". And, while White once again beats the snot out of some jerks, this time he's older, less confident and not quite the invincible superhero.

Jasper (White) goes to his grandma's house and it soon is clear her hearing isn't very good and she's a tad oblivious. During this time at her house, some burglars arrive and try to break in...and Jasper pummels them. So, they bring more friends, and Jasper pummels them...and his grandma's pitbull kills one of them. So, they bring in more friends. Why? And, what's next? See the film.

This is not a great film but made me laugh quite a few times. I also appreciate how White is now well into his 50s...and while tough, he's NOT the man of steel. A clever comedy...though also one with an obviously low budget and modest pretensions. Worth seeing it you like White's work...otherwise, you might be able to skip this one.
