Critic Reviews

Robert Abele

Sandler crony Allen Covert, the star, producer and co-writer of this stunted-adolescence classic, hilariously explores a previously untapped nexus of stoner humor, joystick geekdom, elderly women and a martial arts-taught chimp. Read full review

Roger Moore

It's as aimless and pointless as a joke told while stoned. There are some pretty decent shock-laughs, often provided by Jones, who hasn't ever been this nasty. Read full review

Dana Stevens

It cheerfully invites the audience to descend to their level, where no joke is too silly or raunchy, and a plot is just a way of passing time between game levels and bong hits. Read full review

Joshua Katzman

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

Liam Lacey

An Adam Sandler movie without Adam Sandler, it turns out, is not necessarily an improvement. Read full review

Nathan Rabin

Grandma's Boy aspires to nothing more than the frathouse goofiness and juvenile high spirits of early Sandler vehicles, but it possesses the energy of a funeral dirge played at half-speed. Read full review

James Berardinelli

This is one of those movies where you stay rooted in your seat just to see how bad it can really get. Read full review

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 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

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

This film features several of the actors that take supporting roles in his film. I did not have high hopes for this movie from the outset because the acting looked weak with characters generally known for smaller roles playing pivotal parts, but it gets better as it goes. There are a few components of the film that get repeated a little too much but the characters are funny even though the movie lacks much conflict in the third act. If you are looking for a film that will make you laugh but not do much more then Grandma's Boy could be for you.… Expand
