Critics Consensus: Fitfully funny but mostly misguided, The War with Grandpa will leave audiences with a handful of chuckles -- and a lot of questions about what this talented cast was thinking.

It could have been worse--it could have run for 100 minutes instead of 94.

It’s a family film about lessons without the burden of having any.

So much of The War with Grandpa feels utterly cheap. It plays more like a Disney Channel Original Movie that somehow got Robert De Niro and Uma Thurman to sign on. While the film didn’t work for me, it may keep younger kids entertained for the most part.

Fegley and his character miss it for me because of an innate selfishness in motivation, plus overall meanness to the story's pranks.

Diego Batlle

Beyond an inevitably sentimental and conciliatory closure, what is striking is the absolute lack of charisma, charm and fluidity for what is ultimately a quickly forgettable comedy. [Full Review in Spanish]
