(1 - 18) of 18 OFCS Rating: 6% Rotten Page   1   "What are acclaimed veteran actresses Doris Roberts, Shirley Jones and Shirley Knight doing in a movie like Grandma's Boy? They deserve better."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker D+ "As a short it could have emerged as inspired, but as a feature it feels tired, deflated, and far too familiar."   FromTheBalcony   Bill Clark C+ "If he's schooling punks on Dance Dance Revolution or making out with Shirley Jones, Nick Swardson steals every scene he's in, giving the material a distinctive twist through unexpected line delivery and crack comic timing."   FilmJerk.com   Brian Orndorf 1/5 "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."   eFilmCritic.com   David Cornelius 1/4 "...one puerile, thoroughly unfunny joke after another..."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair 2/4 "Earns a few very big laughs along the way, but it is all in the service of an overall empty package."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman C "I'd call this defiance of basic movie conventions 'experimental' if I didn't know it was actually due to sheer incompetence."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider F "There is no movie. There is only the fact that Adam Sandler has cronies, and Adam Sandler gets what he wants."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov F "A brain-dead piece of slacker swill, worse than the worst Sandler, Schneider or Spade movie ever made."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 0.5/4 "This is one of those movies where you stay rooted in your seat just to see how bad it can really get. And every time you think it has hit the bottom, the filmmakers find a passage taking them lower."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 3.5/5 "There is no doubt that it belongs in Hollywood's sewer, but it's the gem of the sewer this year."   7M Pictures   Kevin Carr F "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."   Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema   Mark Pfeiffer 2/5 "One of the most humorless attempts at comedy since the invention of Rob Schneider."   Film Threat   Michael Ferraro C "The film's [directorial] crudity is ultimately an unbearable drag on its joviality."   Lessons of Darkness   Nick Schager 1.5/4 "Goossen misuses recognizable names for dubious cameos and pushes eccentric side characters to uncomfortable parody."   Slant Magazine   Paul Schrodt 1/5 "Grandma’s Boy is so bad that Sandler couldn’t even be bothered to make his usual cameo appearance this time around."   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski 1/5 "I won't even bore you with the horrendous way this project was shot, cut, or scrawled with crayon onto a roll of toilet paper. This thing makes the Police Academy movies look like the collected works of Billy Wilder."   eFilmCritic.com   Scott Weinberg 2.5/4 "better than some sandler movies"   sbs.is   Stefan Birgir Stefansson  (1 - 18) of 18 OFCS Rating: 6% Rotten Page   1
