For any adam sandler/office space fan.

it was awsome and i dont know why more people dont know about it.

This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen… Yes…I said it…a movie that is billed as “Adam Sandler’s sidekicks smoke pot with grandmas” is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. It’s probably the biggest surprise I’ve ever had in watching a movie in the theater. If you liked Dumb and Dumber, Napoleon Dynamite, or Harold and Kumar…you will love this movie (if not, you’ll probably still laugh and get to see some nudity). I don’t want to give the movie’s funniest character away, but mix Napoleon Dynamite, the Sherminator, Robocop, and Neo together and there you have it. I really didn’t think that a movie based on video games, weed, and old people would be this funny. This movie is worth the price of admission, a big bag of popcorn, and a huge Dr. Pepper to snort out of your nose. There is a Dance, Dance Revolution scene that is very, very funny…I mean it’s funnier than actually watching people do it in the mall. The movie reaches out to the people who just want to smoke pot, live with their parents, play video games, hook up with hot grandmas, have pet lions and monkeys, and be able to get paid for doing most of those things. This movie was better than anything Adam Sandler has been in over the past two years…I never thought a movie produced by Sandler would surpass a movie starring Sandler, but this one managed to do it. If you are a fan of “dumb comedies,” ignore reviews from old people with glasses and go check this movie out. Ignore my review though…go in with your initial expectations and I promise my right index finger and lucky pair of fingernail clippers that you will love this movie. 100% Worth Watching!… Expand

It is worth seeing, NIck Swardson if very funny, the dance scene is hilarious.

I wish some of these critics would pull the sticks out of their collective asses and just have some fun with movies like these. (Hello, BioDome: a "1"???) It was great seeing Linda Cardellini back in action after her run on "Freaks & Geeks". Shirley Jones is hilarious. And Dante almost made me piss my pants. It's a guaranteed laugh, especially if you're young and male (and a gamer), I suppose. For a minor movie, this sucker did have a lot of product placement though -- Game Informer, did you actually pay for those spots? Just check it out if you're in the mood to giggle.… Expand

Hilarious. I'd love to see another movie with those guys in it.

Man, I was getting really sick of overly stupid "comedies" and that is what kept me from this movie for so long. I totally laughed my ass off, probably the most laughs from a movie I’ve seen for ages. All the characters are great together, fun story, made with heart and a good sense of what is and isn't funny. Great soundtrack too, awesome stoner flick high or not.

This movie had no story, but it actually WAS funny. You just have to get it, seriously.

Fantastic comedy that in NO WAY DESERVES a 32/100 metascore. Hilarious add-libs by the character J.P. make this movie one of the greatest comedies in the last number of years. Look past the jokes that fall flat and you'll love the subtlies of the great supporting cast. "I am JP I like robots I have a robot vagina." Genius.

One of my favorite movies. Any one bashing it as NO funny side. 10/10 for the best comedy movie out there.

Produced by Adam Sandler's Happy Madison production company, but not featuring any trace of Sandler onscreen, this lazy but occasionally amusing arrested-adolescent opus DOES manage to perform one truly remarkable feat. It gives Sandler's old SNL buddy and hanger-on Rob Schneider (who's normally absolutely unbearable when he's doing anything but makin' copies) a role as an irate landlord in which he manages to be somewhat amusing, if a bit politically incorrect, then has the good sense to permanently remove him from the picture before the opening credits. Such other ex-Not Ready For Prime Time Players as David Spade and Kevin Nealon contribute nice bitd that help the viewer temporarily forget the fact that this comedy about a thirtysomething video game tester who's forced to move in with his grandmother doesn't really have a plot until the last 10 minutes. Not only are the protagonist and his buddies serious stoners, but it's impossible to avoid the impression that the writers pretty much worked under both a literal and metaphorical fog throughout. The movie's most distinctive characteristic (besides its jaw-droppingly amateurish poster ad) is the triumvirate of extremely veteran character actresses that play Grandma and her friends: Method actress Shirley Knight doesn't get much to do and looks embarrassed doing it, but Doris Roberts deserves some kind of a medal--this script isn't one-tenth as good as the most average episode of Everybody Loves Raymond, but Roberts, bless her heart, plays it as though it is. As for Shirley Jones, it's nice to report that she looks almost as good as she did in Elmer Gantry over four decades ago, but Grandma's Boy loses a whole point for an incredibly disrespectful, offensive and insulting line involving her (character's) nether regions that the moviemakers might have thought made them seem all hip and cutting-edge for trashing Mama Partridge Howard Stern-style, but just proves that Grandma needs to take a belt, a ruler, or a good old fashioned hickory stick to these boys!… Expand

This is a slap in the face to the video game culture and real and respectable gamers. Also its not funny as well as really gross.

To the people who enjoyed Grandma's Boy: Were you all high? Seriously. I just watched the movie on DVD today, and I must say, I laughed only twice the entire time. Twice, thanks to the childlike character J.P. and the Robonerd developer. The movie was missing a few key ingredients: Adam Sandler, funnier jokes, a more structured storyline. As far as "stoner" flicks go, Grandma's Boy is closer to Dude, Where's My Car? (not funny) than Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle (hilarious). Oh, wait--I remember I did laugh a third time during this movie: When I realized Demonik, Alex's big video game, was cancelled in real life! Perhaps this DVD should have received the same treatment.… Expand

Not worth the full price of a ticket for sure, but it has it's moments and moves along quickly. Would have worked better as a straight-to-video.

A pretty funny stoner comedy. Not even nearly as funny as Harold and Kumar of Half-Baked, but it is in that vein and has similar sense of humor (random sick jokes, sex stuff, language, etc.). It's like a mix between The 40-Year Old Virgin and How High, if that makes any sense. I see it becoming a stoner classic in the future, but it will undoubtedly be trashed by critics when it is released. Personally, I thought it was funny and I think fellow canibus-enthusiasts will enjoy the movie.… Expand

What idiotic garbage!! Good thing i didnt pay to see this at a theatre, thank god for free internet downloads! Is this the kind of movie the american public likes?? Thank God i'm not american then! Complete Disgrace, almost as bad as Napoleon Dynamite.

If you have about two hours that you need to waste, $4-5 you would like to toss out the window into the wind, and for some reason lose all sense of reason, this movie might be worth seeing. If comic genius John Belushi still lived, not even he could salvage this movie. I gave the movie a 1 because I don't believe in a reality called "zero." But this movie approaches "nothingness" as closely as any comedy??? I've seen in a while.… Expand

I love this movie. absolutely hilarious. its my favorite comedy. i guess its the stoner and gamer humor that grabbed me. there were only 8 people in the theatre when i saw this movie, only 6 after the older couple walked out in the first 10 mins, one of the earlier scenes was just too much for them. This movie is definitely not for everyone and especially kids, but i honestly loved it. stoners, gamers, and fans of dirty humor see it this instant!… Expand

Everyone, young and old in the movie theater was cracking up in this movie. Now, I consider myself rather critical of movies and I thought there was no way this movie could be good after seeing its score on metacritic. But, I had nothing to do, so I rolled up a fat one and went to see it since it's labeled as a "stoner comedy" and I am a "stoner". Let's just say that if the critics had taken the time to get themselves in the proper state of mind to watch this movie...we'd all be seeing 70's to 100's.… Expand

Yeah, this movie is not perfect. Far from it. If your'e looking for plot, or acting, or Anything that a socially decent movie should have, why are you watching a stoner movie anyway? But the ambling path the movie takes is entertaining and it takes a black heart to not to at least like the character. Sure, this is a misrepresentation of the video game industry, but aren't you supposed to suspend belief and step into another world? Only the ending is a real let down, like they didnt know how to end it, or ran out of time. This movie is good for (quite) a few cheap, raunchy laughs, just dont expect a Morgan Freeman calibur performance.… Expand

I really do not understand what the big fuss over this movie is. When I first saw this movie about a year ago, I laughed harder than I've ever laughed watching a movie. Since then, I've seen it on numerous occasions among friends, and I have yet to get tired of it. That's the essence of a good film. I could not imagine it done differently!

Very funny the story of my life videogames and weed / does it get any better.

I've much to offer in the sense of giving a fair/unbiased review, but am limited to few words. Simply put, the critiques provided by the more popular sites/magazines have absolutely no flexibility in expanding mental prowess to accommodate the comedy used, so you can forget about rating accuracy. Theres definitely some intelligence built into the creation of this movie, but if you can't seem to grasp the moments, thats unfortunately your own lack of creativity. Don't bother watching and providing the world a negative review if you don't understand this movie. And for the record, this movie never attempted to have a historically altering plot attached. Its unreasonable, for example, to compare Shaun of the Dead to Dawn of the Dead. (Also, you can't say J.P. was a "hollow" character) -CM… Expand

Anyone who doesn't like this movie needs to open the sense of humor and stop disliking movies just because their stupid and have raunchy humor with lots of drugs, sex and swearing. This is one of the all time funniest movies made. Just because it is R rated and not as smart as the 40 year old virgin doesn't mean its not good or not funny. Open up your sense of humor and people. I mean common any movie with pot heads, Filipino hookers, video games, hot girls, a dude who thinks hes a robot, and a tai-kwon-do chimpanzee is a good movie.… Expand

So this movie definitely isn't highbrow. The plot is practically non-existant and is just a mechanism to go from gag to joke to gag. Sure, at times it was crude, or a bit shocking. If you are easily offended, I can see not liking this movie... but then why are you going to a Happy Madison production anyway. I'm giving this movie a 9 because it was FUNNY. I laughed long, and hard, all my friends I have shown it to laughed long and hard. And this laughing still occurs even after multiple viewings.… Expand

i thought it was a great movie. anybody who doesn't like it should stop going on the internet and bitching about it. some people like it so get over it. you are just the worst kind of people.

I don't know what you guys are talking about because i loved this movie. Very funny parts to it. Hope there is a Grandmas Boy 2.

This is quite possibly the best movie ever made.

full 10, greatest comedy of all time, can be watched over and over and u will stil laugh, a true classic comedic genius. .if u hav a real sense of humour u wil laugh ur ass off. .sheer brilliance, timeless. .my favourite.

There aren't many movies that make me laugh out loud the fifth time around, and this is one of them. I'm not quite sure why it got so low official reviews.

Wow I just bought this movie used and man did it suck. It was so bad I don't even have words to describe it. I gave it a two because I laughed when the monkey kicked the guy at the bottom of the stairs. It's the only funny part but it was in the commercial anyway.

Much funnier than I thought. It's one of those really weird movies: it's probably the worst movie I've seen - and yet one of the more humourous ones. Crazy! I mean - the acting, plot, storyline...absymal. But the jokes you get off it - "Frankenstein weed" - you will laugh. Hard. Definately one of those movies you'll watch at home once every year, but enough to have in the collection.… Expand

What is it with these movies? Why does it seem there have been so many of them recently? From the extremely lame "Harold and Kumar go to Whitecastle" to the equally lame and dull "Eurotrip" it seems similar movies pop up pretty much anywhere. Not hard to believe this came from such a played out comedian who once was the slightly retarded hell-spawned half angel, with a speech impediment "Little Nicky." Guarantee this movie to be a flop. Unless you're a major fan of Adam Sandler, pass on this movie.… Expand

I thought the movie was good, but you do have to be in the right state of mind. Of course its not going to be funny if you're sober! So everybodys votes that were sober don't really count. It is a pretty funny movie to watch every once in a while, ecpecially the scene where their driving to the devil's house.

The movie was so bad it actually hurt my feelings.

The Second movie based on Video Games that was actually good. I give it two-thumbs up. A must see for all gamers out there.

Grandma's Boy is one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life. It lacks a plot, and has hollow characters. I of course could forgive those if it made me laugh, but it didn't. I want that hour and a half of my life back.

Not funny at all, and I'm a guy who normally enjoys Sandler's crude humor. This films is ridiculously acted and terribly casted. There's no chemistry, no story, no point. If you want to get high while watching something, you can do much better than this by just watching South Park reruns. Moneymaking garbage film.

The acting was ok and there were a few funny moments but there were also quite a few stupid moments as well. Also it does get rather corny as well. Yet it was still a solid comedy.

Are you a gamer, stoner, live with your grandma, or all of the above? then this is for you, a completely hilarious movie with video games, weed, old ladies, and just all around immaturity, honestly the characters are really likable and their sheer believable immaturity is what makes it funny and enjoyable, honestly this is how I see me and my friends in the next few years, the Happy Madison company has made another fantastic comedy, of you like their previous works than this is a must see.… Expand

Very, very, funny movie. The critics are wrong. Every joke is hil larry ous. Nick Swardson is funny as hell and I loved the concept of a video game tester smoking pot and playing video game. That is the life I want to live.

A funny, enjoyable, and quotable movie. However it was rather lacking in story, and there were a few too many sex-jokes. It's also clearly a Hollywood movie because videogames are so poorly portrayed. Honestly, how many games have levels anymore? And since when does programming a videogame involve no code? If you can ignore that, and enjoy stoner-comedies, then you'll probably enjoy Grandma's Boy.

This movie will be a cult classic, if not already, and all the uppity people bagging on will be trying to tell others how they watched endlessly in 5-10 years. There is so much more in this film than just the blatant stoner/gamer humor (btw to the guy halfway down the thread......real gamers can, and do, make fun themselves) for the viewer to see that the replay value of this flick exceeds many "serious" movies. I mean, in the seen where J.P. is trying to hide in his jacket ("How did he see me?") look at the game posters.....Gay Robot, Canada Must Die, Ninja Blood Orgy.......classic. The plot perfect for the genre it is in and the writingfits within the realm of what typically happens when you get a group of people sitting around smoking weed and playing videogames. Good fun, a nice way to laugh for 90 min.… Expand

I was wondering why all my favorite comedies were poorly ranked on this site and then I search for one of my all time favorite comedies and realize this site is visited by a bunch of fat ugly women.

A few funny parts but the last 1/2 of the film is just so stupid and it kills the film rather quickly. The first 20 mins or so were good but the rest is just garbage. Also I hated how they recycled the same lame jokes through out the film.

Grandma's boy will go down as a classic in my book. Not a movie to sit down and analyze, just a movie to sit down and enjoy. You cannot go wrong with Doris Roberts and Jonah Hill while he was still fat.
