Blu-ray Review: ‘That’s My Boy’ is More Mediocre Than Disastrous

That's My Boy

CHICAGO – Perhaps it’s that I had heard SO many negative things about Adam Sandler’s comedy bomb “That’s My Boy” that by the time I finally got around to watching the Blu-ray I didn’t find it to be that awful. It’s certainly better than his trifecta of crap in 2012 - “Just Go With It,” “Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star” (which Sandler produced), and “Jack and Jill.” Although lower standards doesn’t forgive the fact that this flick has definite problems. Just not as many as you may have heard.

Box Office News: Tom Cruise, Adam Sandler Bomb With Horrible Openings

CHICAGO – Tom Cruise and Adam Sandler proved to be fallible this weekend as their latest offerings — “Rock of Ages” and “That’s My Boy,” respectively — delivered far below even their meager expectactions, finishing third and fifth for the frame and failing to crack $16 million for three days. The top two — “Madagascar 3” and “Prometheus” — remained unchanged although Ridley Scott’s controversial film took a notable plummet of over 60%.
