Undercover Grandpa

Undercover Grandpa (2017) is a Canadian family comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Érik Canuel, it starts with a simple problem: teenager Jake's girlfriend goes missing, and instead of calling the police he calls his grandfather — a retired special-ops veteran played by James Caan.

Grandpa calls in the old crew. Louis Gossett Jr., Paul Sorvino, and Jessica Walter round out the team of senior operatives who treat a kidnapping with the calm efficiency of one last mission. The premise is cheerfully absurd, and the cast — between them holding multiple Oscars and Emmys — makes it land better than it has any right to. Watch Undercover Grandpa online on iFILM.
