Indovina perché ti odio

I do not see why there are so many people who hate on this movie, It is what it is, Its a comedy movie. In my opinion Sandler is going back to his comedic roots... I mean you cant tell me when he was on SNL and in some of his earlier movies he didn't act stupid, Maybe some of you reviewers are just getting old and don't know comedy anymore when you see it. See people need to stop critiquing a comedy like this based as though it was a movie in another genre. But thats just my opinion, If your looking for something funny I recommend seeing this. But you might need to be a specific age group, 12-36, I guess Sandler is tired of trying to make all you "old fools" laugh. Also Andy Samberg was great along with Will Forte and Nick Swardson, even though he only had like 4 lines.

I admit that I am not without a wicked sense of humor. I will also admit that I have found over the years a lot of raunchy gags in R rated movies to be funny. But with "That's My Boy", I found the relentless cascade of raunchy gags to be extremely excessive. Maybe it wouldn't have been so bad had the gags been funny. Though I will admit that I found a handful of gags in the movie to be funny, the majority of the attempts at humor seemed to have an air of desperation around them. It was like a pre- teenager struggling to come up with a non-stop bombardment of gags using only a bunch of dirty joke books as reference. Eventually the humor becomes agonizing to sit through, not helped by Sandler giving his character an extremely annoying voice as well as the fact that the movie is stretched out to a much too long length of ALMOST TWO HOURS!

By the way, the disappointing box office gross of this movie (as well as the one for his previous movie "Jack & Jill" suggests that audiences may be tiring of Sandler's shtick. If you ask me, it's about time.

The best pure comedy Sandler has starred in since the 90s. I kept widely swinging between laughing out loud (Todd Bridges, Vanilla Ice, etc.) and cringing with disgust/distaste (statutory rape, incest, sexism, etc.), which, for better or worse, is exactly what I want from an R-rated Happy Madison movie.

That's My Boy seems Sandler who plays Donny Berger, who gained notoriety as a 13-year-old in the mid-1980s for having a wildly inappropriate sexual relationship with his math teacher (Eva Amurri Martino). When their relationship is revealed, the pregnant and unapologetic teacher goes to prison and young Donny gets custody of their child, spending more time selling the rights to his life story and hobnobbing with other young celebrities than being a responsible father.

Fast-forward 30 years, and Donny owes a lot of money to the IRS, which, if he doesn't pay it back, will land him in prison. He asks an old talk-show host buddy for help, and he agrees to throw him a line, but only if Donny can orchestrate a jailhouse reunion between him, the teacher and their estranged, now-grown son.

That last one is a problem, because their son, Todd (Samberg), a successful hedge-fund manager, has long claimed his parents are dead. And he isn't about to let his fiancée (Leighton Meester) and soon-to-be in-laws find out the truth. == As a rewatch 08/23/18' and 6+ years from the initial watch back in 2012 That's My Boy has a better feel and more laughs come from the film. In fact, the film seemed to have been overlooked considering it's box office flop.

Now, the film is clearly not for everyone given the mature subject matter and the nature of the plot. Many reviews and critics have panned the film for reasons in which the film was intended to be. It is supposed to be cruel, vulgar and quite silly, and in the end if not taken too serious, That's My Boy is quite a fun and entertaining ride. Rating changed from 3 to 7.

Seems every movie Sandler does these days gets hated on. People saying this is the worst movie ever made in history...really? You people must not have seen many movies. Regardless of what Sandler does the rest of his career its now popular to point out how it sucks and not as funny as his old movies. I enjoyed this movie, laughing out loud several times. Sandler does a great job playing the father. The bachelor party scenes are epic, really feel for the characters. Uncle Vanny? Hilarious. At no point in this movie did I think "oh man this is the worst thing I've seen in my life." Had good feeling, good comedy, a solid entry to Sandlers recent works. Much much better than the one where he played his sister.
