Then I re-watched it and realized it isn't quite what I was expecting. This movie has Linda Cardellini AND funny enough, that is about it. Yes, I gave this an 8 mostly because of Velma and half of that pretty much goes to her sexy, drunk dance. If you like Velma as much as I do, this show is awesome! Otherwise, this is probably a good show to pass on because there really isn't much else to it. I can watch this every 2 - 3 years just for the eye candy.

This movie has an inexplicable cult following of people who actually think it is decent. Now while I don't mean to disparage these fans, I honestly can't find what worth they see in this movie.I watched with an open mind but quickly got annoyed at the terrible acting of the protagonist, who wasn't able to sell any sort of comedy bit and over-all just gave a flat-ass performance. Long story short the main character is unlikable, unfunny and shallow. This does not make for an entertaining movie experience. This could have been (somewhat) redeemed if the writing was clever and gave the audience a good amount of laughs but sadly every joke made by the main character was cringe-worthy and lazy comedy. Nick Swardson seemed to be the only character in this movie that could sell a joke and get chuckles and this happens far too little. Every thing about this production screams Happy Madison which sadly has become synonymous with lazy and overall terrible movies. I actually rooted against the main character to get the girl. Of course he does but god knows why. If you are interested in this movie because of the positive audience response I wouldn't be fooled, there are much better irreverent and goofy comedies out there that aren't just a cash-in. Try Hot Rod.

Grandma's Boy is about a 35 year old video game tester has to move in with his grandma and her two old lady roommates. This is one of the few movies starring everyone Happy Madison except Adam Sandler. Even Jonah Hill is in this film before his breakthrough in Superbad.It had a great plot, only bad thing is that it didn't have much of a storyline. But it didn't matter much because their shenanigans were entertaining and funny.Grandma's Boy is a cult classic and stoner film. What else could you ask for? It's a shame it didn't do well on the box office, it's truly an underrated comedy. Maybe it was the title of the movie, I don't know.7/10

Adam Sandler stock company player Allen Covert got boosted to star status with this easygoing stoner comedy that Covert also produced and co-wrote (with Barry Wernick and co-star Nick Swardson). The amiable Covert plays Alex, a 35 year old video game tester who loses his apartment through no fault of his own. He briefly - very briefly - is able to stay with his co-worker & friend Jeff (Swardson), who refers to his parents as his "roommates", until an unforeseen incident involving Lara Croft, Tomb Raider, occurs. Soon he's obliged to accept the offer from his grandmother Lilly (Doris Roberts) to come stay with her and her friends, Grace (Shirley Jones) and Bea (Shirley Knight). He comes to enjoy the arrangement, despite a rocky start, and is immediately attracted to Samantha (Linda Cardellini), the hottie supervising the production of the game that he's currently testing. Covert does a fine job with the writing of this appropriately goof ball movie that includes enough wild and random - and raunchy, of course - insanity to make it pleasurable viewing. The bit with the martial artist chimp is particularly funny. The assorted off the wall characters include Peter Dante (another member of the Adam Sandler stock company) as stoner dude Dante, Joel David Moore as weirdo video game prodigy J.P., Kevin Nealon as Alex's New Age boss, and Jonah Hill as another of his co-workers. They're all good at what they do, but it's really the older generation that adds that something special to this thing, as veterans Roberts and Jones are very much up for anything in this outrageous movie; Roberts is endearing as always, but Jones is a revelation as an oversexed show business groupie whose liaisons included ones with Charlie Chaplin and Abbott & Costello. You'll never look at Shirley Partridge quite the same way again! Predictably enough, there are cameo roles for Sandler's old cohorts David Spade and Rob Schneider. Moore's "robotic" shtick does wear a little thin, but that's hardly a major quibble. A production of Sandler's Happy Madison company, this does take a bit of time to kick into gear but once it does it remains an acceptable diversion for its duration. Seven out of 10.
