Not Like Dad 2: Granddad

Not Like Dad 2: Granddad (Батя 2: Дед, 2025) is a Russian comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM. Director Ilya Uchitel picks up the family thread from the first Batya.

Max is heading for divorce again. He shows up at his ex Irina's place to collect their son Dima for the holidays, only to learn the boy has bolted — straight to Grandpa's village. With Irina's new partner, a family therapist named Vlad, riding along, the drive turns into a trip through memory. Max replays his own childhood: the summer his parents, on the brink of their own split, parked him with a gruff war-veteran grandfather out in the countryside.

Yevgeny Tsyganov plays grown-up Max, Vladimir Vdovichenkov is the grandfather, with Nadezhda Mikhalkova and Nikita Mikhalkov in the cast. The comedy lands through recognizable family moments rather than big jokes — the kind that make you want to call home. Stream Not Like Dad 2: Granddad (2025) online on iFILM.
