Grandma's Boy Reviews

The sex, fart, and pot jokes come so fast and furious that a white flag seems the most appropriate response.

| Aug 15, 2015

Absolutely dreadful and offensive comedy.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 18, 2010

So filled with untapped laughs, potentially interesting sub-plots and fails in every single aspect in a mostly laughless stoner comedy.

| Apr 29, 2009

Even if you aren't under the influence, you might find yourself chuckling at various points during the movie, if only in disbelief at some of the things the cast is asked to do.

| Mar 1, 2007

Grandma's Boy isn't just a movie, it's a weapon of mass destruction. Audiences across the country should run for cover.

| Oct 21, 2006

Hilarity fails to ensue in the workplace or at home, in spite of the late introduction of a fighting, driving monkey.

| Original Score: D+ | Sep 23, 2006

...one puerile, thoroughly unfunny joke after another...

| Original Score: 1/4 | May 27, 2006

The chief value of this stinker is as a glimpse of how bad Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle and The 40-Year-Old Virgin might have been if they'd been written by Covert, Barry Wernick and Nick Swardson, and directed by Nicholaus Goossen.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 12, 2006

Covert is so obnoxious, so lacking in the basic understanding of comic timing, that we understand why he has to get his buddy Sandler to give him work.

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 6, 2006

Grandma's Boy is a better series of spoofs than anything we currently see on that show. It's an affectionate and tight-knit comedy.

Full Review | Mar 23, 2006

Those who like America Pie and its spawn will likely find comfort in the jokes here.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Feb 2, 2006

Grandma's Boy is what would result if Adam Sandler and his high profile co-stars bailed on a movie and the understudies took over.

| Original Score: F | Jan 18, 2006

It's gross, it's cheesy, and it's baked beyond all reasonable limits, but this everything-and-the-kitchen-sink comic soufflé still manages to be goofily entertaining beyond all expectations.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 15, 2006

"Grandma's Boy" is a pot- and potty-mouthed relative of an Adam Sandler movie.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 14, 2006

The only worthwhile character is bad guy J.P. (Joel David Moore), a gaming prodigy with a Gollum-like multiple-personality disorder... J.P. suggests a subtle, unconscious awareness of how stupid the whole movie is.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 14, 2006

Like the dead kitty left to rot under grandma's couch, this movie stinks!

Full Review | Original Score: 0.5/5 | Jan 14, 2006

If you're a video game geek and/or a stoner, Grandma's Boy isn't a comedy -- it's a documentary. For everyone else, it's an interminably flat, one-joke movie with admittedly a couple of decent laughs.

| Jan 14, 2006

It's plenty stupid, often funny and occasionally pithy. That may add up to a movie you want to see, or it might add up to a movie that will make you ill.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 12, 2006

Grandma's Boy isn't as bad as it sounds, but the shame is that there's a lot of potential here for a really good movie that remains unrealized.

Full Review | Jan 12, 2006

[The film] does a very thorough job of reducing every recognizable member of the cast to probable career lows.

| Original Score: D | Jan 11, 2006
