When the girl he likes goes missing, Jake enlists the help of his grandpa and Grandpa’s former special ops buddies.

I suppose this is something that I normally wouldn’t watch, honestly it was one of those spur-of the moment Netflix decisions. Was this a bad decision? Perhaps not, I can certainly see this as being something that I might have enjoyed when I was younger maybe when I was around 13 or 15, though that being it said I’m sure even a teenager might find this one to be a little formulaic. Dylan Everett and Greta Onieogou where great casting choices as eventual boyfriend/girlfriend as their characters Jake and Angie had some cute moments together.
Even though it might not be their best performance it was good James Cann, Louis Gossett Jr., Paul Sorvino cast in this though personally I would have liked to have seen a little more thought put into a couple of the ‘ha-ha he’s old’ jokes.
Perhaps if we ever see a movie with 007 in a retirement home, we might see him use a walker like the one that was used during the finale.
