The movie is so unbelievably stupid and obnoxious but provides a decent amount of hilarious scenes to save itself from becoming a mind numbing disaster.

Someone needs to tell this great comedian that the emperor is naked now. His last few movies have been so awful that I wonder who is advising him. There are laughs here but there are not enough and the ones that exist are not strong enough. This character was like an old burn out of any of the aforementioned movie characters. I wish someone would man up and tell Sandler when he is not funny. Sandler is sadly becoming Eddie Murphy. Expand

That's my boy is great trash. It's every dirty joke we ever thought up cranked out to the extreme. Yet even on top of all this shameful fun, it has some heart, perhaps not enough to bring it up from the trenches, but it still surprised me.

The mostly lowbrow humor with an occasional laugh is usually a result of some gross/disgusting scenerio. And personally after reading what seems like a new story every other day about some perverted teacher hooking up with a young student I find it pretty strange that they chose to show that in the film in some detail. Unless you have nothing better to do I'd wait for dvd/netflix. Expand

The movie is everything the critics say: it's vulgar, tasteless, offensive, idiotic, and even depraved. Still, I laughed a lot and had a good time. I want a comedy to give me more, but this is adequate.

Sure, it's lowbrow as hell, but I laughed consistently throughout, and the movie has a heart. Loved seeing some of the Grandma's Boy vets, and Vanilla Ice is terrific.

I always look forward to the next Sandler film and this one was no different. I couldn't wait to see it. Now that I've finally seen it I can say that the movie, while having some funny moments, was actually a big disappointment for me. I was expecting it to be his funniest movies yet. It's a lot different from the rest of Sandler's films, it's his raunchiest yet and he drops the f-bombs for the first time in a long time, probably more times than he ever has before. Despite these differences they don't make the movie any funnier. Most of the jokes are predictable and I could see them coming WAY before they were made. Other times it's just not funny, only manages to get a little chuckle, or is just too gross. There were a few moments that did bring some genuine laugh out loud moments, but they were few and far between. It's a decent Sandler flick with some great cameos, and worth a rental for Sandler fans just to see him try something new, but don't expect anything that great. Expand

I don't know why all the negativity towards this film. It wasn't horrifyingly bad. I've seen worse movies, sure is this the best movie I've ever seen? Absolutely not. But is it one of the worst? No. In fact, I found the movie really got goingI don't know why all the negativity towards this film. It wasn't horrifyingly bad. I've seen worse movies, sure is this the best movie I've ever seen? Absolutely not. But is it one of the worst? No. In fact, I found the movie really got going towards the late middle / end of the film. Granted, that's a long wait for humor but I found it worth it. Lonely Island's Adam Sandberg (I believe?) played great and the connection him and Adam Sandler had was most definitely there. However, I found parts of the movie were missing and the movie went to fast in some parts; which would and will confuse some audiences. Also, I don't recommend going to see this movie with your mother; it's quite awkward. Anyway, I hope you take my review into consideration when going to rent this movie. Have a great day. Expand

As expected, it's absolutely and stupid and childish. However, I wouldn't go as far as saying that this one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

However, I wouldn't go as far as saying that this one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Despite the horrible movies Adam Sandler is appearing in, I can say this one is acceptable compared to most of them, but still isn't anything to brag about.

It's got some funny bits slipped in here and there and some interesting characters, but the rest of it is just cartoony, goofy humor that's outdated. If this movie was released in the 90's or early 2000's, it might have been enjoyed more when this type of humor was still fresh, but not now.

I did laugh a few times, but by the end my opinion had changed. This is a dumb and brainless raunchy comedy disguised as a father and son bonding movie. Usually Sandler is juvenile, but juvenile as in childish and immature. That's My Boy is juvenile because pretty much every joke is about bodily excrement, nudity or excessively drinking alcohol. Every now and again Vanilla Ice turns up and makes you laugh a bit. The keywords in that sentence were "a bit". No moments made me laugh very loudly and when I did smirk it was a joke completely unconnected to the rest of story which is in the movie just to attract the easily satisfied. However it must be pretty hard to attempt to connect a joke to the story when the story almost does not exist. Not Sandlers worst (definitely Samberg's worst) but utterly pointless and really quite boring. Expand

It had the chance to be hilarious. But it seems that the writers went for the lazy tired gags instead of actually being creative or adding any sort of cleverness to the jokes...for the most part.

But it seems that the writers went for the lazy tired gags instead of actually being creative or adding any sort of cleverness to the jokes...for the most part. The opening, although completely inappropriate and messed up, is actually pretty funny. Also, when Sandburgh and Sandler start to argue the movie does gain some comic momentum. There was some promise here in moments like these, moments where I started to think "Hey, this might actually be pretty funny." But they don't last. Most of the movie is just a bunch of jokes that seem like they were concocted by a 9 year old. The jokes are just so unbelievably lazy and off putting. It has some edge to it, but this only helps in small bursts. Expand

Over the top, raunchy, crude, disgusting, horribly acted, racist, sexist: everything that makes an Adam Sandler movie an Adam Sandler movie. Take it or leave it.
