This is why grandma.....


SUCKS ASS!!!!

1) We are outta' here. On the way to safety. Blue skies and a new life but NOOOOOOO the old bat won't come down the *beep* mountain. The grand kid decides to go after her and Pierce's character is so hard up for a piece he goes with them. So grandma puts EVERYONE in jeopardy.

2) Grandma didn't spend any money on the house, the outfits, etc... so why not be consistent and buy the Sears Catalog, $19.95 dingy and outboard motor. That was a real help in an acid lake.

3) We are 20 feet from shore and the grandma decides to jump out and tug it to shore. Does she at least do us a favor by dying there and adding some time to our escape? NOOOO she hangs on for what? Half-hour to then check out. Making the WHOLE *beep* TRIP pointless.

In short Annie Alzheimers gets her ass down the mountain or at least goes full blown Hawaiian and chuck herself into the volcano the 2nd half of the movie is pointless and no one has to risk their life.

This is how it REALLY should have went:

You coming down the mountain? No. Well *beep* it have a nice life, bye. <Roll Credits> We could have been in the theater for 40 minutes and caught an early dinner.
