Gramps Goes to College

This is the WORST Christian movie of all times. Every aspect of it is either manipulative, lying, or flat out cringy. The first warning sign is when the college biology professor tells her students to ditch their religious beliefs. In what universe would this happen? Oh, let me back up a bit. The reason why this old coot goes to college is that "we're at war," and he is going to be the champion to dispel the myth of evolution. Oh wait, there's more! Donald James Parker, wrote, directed and made himself the lead character, giving himself super- human geriatric powers. He is a grand master at chess, pro ball player, long distance runner that beats 20-year-olds, and yes, even a lady's man. But being such a prude, he won't succumb to a 'woman's charm'. Now ask yourself, why does a 60 something man need to have so many movies where he plays the lead with young girls? In seeing interviews with Donald, you can see a hypocritical dark side to this man. He supports a rapist bragging about rape, saying it's "just locker room talk." So, you can either avoid this movie, period, or have fun and watch it on you tube where a commentator will share the laughs and groans with you. And Donald, if you're reading, get this: We see your hypocrisy and twisted mind. Your movies reek of desperation to be liked.

It is hard to keep our Christian attitudes when all around the devil has easy access to every aspect of life. Staying firm and surrounding ourselves with other Christians is best while our examples help grow some doubting to become strong Christians. I recommend this movie!

College is a time of discovery for young people away from home for a first time. Wouldn't a person get confidence by seeing a movie that explores questions they have or will have duriing college.

Parents of students would also benefit by supporting this movie and talking with their child after viewing and answering questions that come up. Grandparents would delight in viewing this movie for personal reasons (LOL) and also their grandchildren may like the idea that family values are shared.

Seriously Carol, your acting far surpassed that of anybody else's. Again, David John Parker your writing and direction has led to yet another hilariously embarrassing film. However, at least I can say it was an entertaining film.

It is not a figure of speech or a euphemism when I say this was literally the stupidest thing I have ever seen in my entire life. The laughter was painful in the beginning. But by the middle, the embarrassment I felt for being a member of the same species as Grandpa Handsome-Bold-Intelligent-Computer Genius-Chess Grandmaster-Workaholic-4-God was far more painful. The tone-deafness in this train wreck was hard to believe. The hilarious not-so-subtle self-aggrandizement, surreal interactions and bloated misogynistic undertones that the producer doesn't even seem to realize it exhibits put this way out past daft.

How is it that other people actually cooperated in the making of this nightmarish skit? If they were this guy's friends, they would have put a stop to it and spared him the personal embarrassment and prevented him from making a film that is excellent at doing exactly the opposite of what it is intended to do: making fundamentalists look like out-of-touch, self-absorbed idiots who live in an archaic echo chamber.

If this was organized by anti-theists to serve as a secret tongue-in-cheek mockery of creationism and fundamentalism, then it was genius. Absolutely no one who ever lived will see this and feel sympathetic to the points it attempts to make; but there are plenty who might already be sympathetic and feel highly embarrassed after being exposed to this disaster. Nothing could make anyone on the fence about creationism run for the door faster than this thing.

The most embarrassing, self-indulgent, ignorant bilge I've ever seen. No review here will do justice in how truly awful this is.

Even removing the tragic science denial and ludicrous, over exaggerated religious thread - The guy produces enough cringe to power the entire USA for the next 1000 years.

Donald James Parker has found an outlet to promote religious dogma while showcasing to the world his athletic prowess, undeniable sexual attraction, hyper intelligence, chess mastery, tennis supremacy - you name it, this 60+ year old can do it - and better than anyone. That includes these young whipper snappers who think they can outrun him over a 2mile stretch or biology professors who think they know more than he does.

Fortunately the world won't be seeing this and it's viewership is limited to some poor individuals such as myself and a selection of christian fanatics who will no doubt be swooning over Donald.

0/10 - probably the worst thing ever committed to film.
