Old Dads (2023)
Writer-director-star Bill Burr (above right) plays a 50-something Gen X dad who refuses to abide by the new rules of what is and isn’t OK to say — no matter how many problems it creates for his growing family.
Burr calls out a holier-than-thou school administrator with one of the crudest words in the English language, shares some thoughts on Caitlyn Jenner, and bullies a young colleague to rap along, uncensored, to N.W.A.
Of course, he also learns some valuable lessons. But Old Dads never goes completely soft, and proves it isn’t afraid to violate recent comedy norms with a few hard-R moves — like packing a crucial scene with exotic dancers, just because.
Old Dads is now streaming on Netflix.
