Watch That's My Boy For Free

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Having watched this film many times, it keeps getting better and better. Very rarely do you find a movie that has comedy, drama, action, pop culture and sports references, and amazing Massachusetts accents. This film is a masterpiece through and through, and can be laughed at and enjoyed for decades to come.

If you are into the romantic comedies only you will not like this one. If you became a fan of Adam because of SNL, the goat skit, Waterboy, Billy Madison etc you will roll over with laughter. Brilliant!

For those of us who grew up on Sandler, listened to the comedy tapes, watched Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore at least once month, respected Big Daddy, loved Little Nicky and weren't afraid to admit it--we will always love Sandler. The more mass market stuff gets a lot of hate, and I'll admit I'm not into them for the most part, although (let's be honest) his romcoms are the best in the biz. But this movie is not a mass market movie. It is crass, its main character is mostly despicable, it threads a tough needle through some very taboo subject matter like statutory rape, incest, and stolen valor. Yet somehow Sandler rises to the challenge of poking fun at this material and makes his character, Donnie Berger, an all around endearing person. Sandberg clearly understands Sandler's sense of humor and plays the perfect straight man to Sandler's over the top Mass hole character. As a person who grew up in the Boston suburbs, Sandler does an amazing job capturing the stereotypical Boston alpha male. He hams it way up, but he's consistent and it works. My only regret is coming late to the party. I wish I had seen this sooner. Like other classic Sandler movies, TmB has high re-watch value. I'm looking forward to watching again and again and again.

This movie is pretty funny. Donny Berger, played by Adam Sandler, is such a tool in this story. Donny is trying to gain the trust of his son, Todd Peterson played by Andy Samberg. Todd was abandoned as a child by his father, and despite the odds he became successful and changed his name so that his father could not find him.Despite all the trouble Todd went through to complicate the chances of his father finding him, Donny was able to track him down and find him. Donny is a low-life and wanted to use his son to bail him out of trouble. It started as greed for personal gain, but it soon evolved into Donny wanting to know his son and be the father he was not all the previous years.Donny's journey and adventures are full of laughter and excitement.
