Author Topic: Grandma's Boy (2005) Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 01-06-2006 10:32 AM                     Do you know someone who is a nerd yet thinks he is super mega cool, in his 30s, still lives with his mom, is a huge video game nut (so much that he is even a video game tester for his profession) and to top it off actually thinks he is some sort of macho stud whom the ladies all want (but in reality do not)? If so, this is a movie about him. Sort of like "40 Year Old Virgin", just with the video game twist. There are a couple of parts that actually had me laughing out loud (an extremely rare occurence in movies these days) and overall it's a decent stupid little film. Don't go in there expecting some great comedy masterpiece. Just go in there thinking about that guy you know who fits this description and you're sure to have a good time. Heck, it's even got a cameo from Rob Schneider. 3.5 out of 5  |  IP: Logged Anslem Rayburn Master Film Handler Posts: 476 From: Yuma, AZ, USA Registered: May 2002 posted 01-07-2006 05:44 AM                     Film looked grainy to me.. I HATED the first 15 minutes. After that, it's a funny brain-dead comedy. If the "plot" didn't need JD, I could have done with him and his robot voices. Overall, I've seen funnier, and I've seen worse... 3/5  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 01-07-2006 05:37 PM                  It's crude, it's rude, it's juvenile, it's dumb, ... it's hilarious! I LUV it! The Gay, Jew, and Asian Hooker stereotypical jokes are SURE to cause a ruckus with the goodie-2-shoes! Yeah? SO? Get real! It's just a f*cking movie! HA! 4 outta 5  |  IP: Logged Richard Greco Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1180 From: Plant City, FL Registered: Nov 2003 posted 01-09-2006 03:10 PM                     Freaking Funny.
