As stated, critics were quite harsh on That’s My Boy upon release, mostly due to its irreverent themes, juvenile sense of humor, and patently gross subject matter. The movie was even originally given a rating of NC-17, before the filmmakers successfully appealed the MPAA to reduce it down to an R.
To date, That’s My Boy has the distinct honor of being one of very few Adam Sandler movies to bomb at the box office, taking in only $57 million against an estimated production budget of over $70 million.
If you’re interested in checking out That’s My Boy today, be sure to stream the madcap comedy on Netflix. While it certainly won’t be eligible for any Pulitzer Prize nominations, the film is an off-beat raunchy comedy that’s definitely good for some cheap laughs.
