That's My Boy (2012)
TOMATOMETER
AUDIENCE SCORE
Critic Consensus: While it does represent a new foray into raunch for the normally PG-13 Sandler, That's My Boy finds him repeating himself to diminishing effect - and dragging Andy Samberg down with him.

The basic joke keeps on giving and the sweetness of the parent-child bonding scenes plays well.
It points you toward the irresistible conclusion that for all his success Sandler feels only contempt for his audience and tremendous insecurity about his own stature in the comedy universe.
Surprisingly mean-spirited from start to finish.
Sandler's latest wicked pissah, a paean to let-it-all-hang-out party-guy sloppiness...
If someone told you about almost every joke in That's My Boy, you would think they were either a sociopath or a budding serial killer.
Vulgar, tasteless, mean-spirited and most offensive of all--not funny.
Audience Reviews for That's My Boy
Not as bad as it could have been... Somewhere in this movie is a tolerable story about an estranged father and son, and around it is the usual Sandler frat boy schtick. It's immature, it's gross, but I've got to admit: I laughed. Nowhere near as bad as Bulletproof, I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, or Little Nicky, but can't keep up with Happy Gilmore or Billy Madison either. What you see is what you get: Sandler using the money from his past successes to give younger, funnier actors an opportunity and to keep his usual crew employed. It's forgettable, disposable work, but honestly... were you expecting anything better?

two stars!

Yep, another Sandler stinker. I honestly don't know why I keep doing it to myself. It's clear he's never going to make another Wedding Singer.
