No matter how much good-hearted licentiousness follows in the rest of the movie, the opening sequence brings a unshakable sourness to the whole affair. - 50
The Hollywood Reporter
With enough wedding-related shenanigans to pull in the date crowd, the guffaw-to-gag ratio remains relatively respectable, though there's nothing here that hasn't been attempted many times over. - 50

I did laugh. The movie is so disgusting it is worthy of the Farrelly brothers. - 38
Slant Magazine
That's My Boy lazily exists in a fantasyland of Adam Sandler's perpetual adolescence, even as it generates some moderate comic friction from Sandler and Andy Samberg's testy back-and-forth. - 38
Boston Globe
Sadly, That's My Boy relies on caricatures, rather than characters, to make you laugh. - 30
Variety
All in all, it could have been worse. Puerile, crotch-fixated and very occasionally, inanely funny, Adam Sandler's raunchiest star vehicle in years has a small saving grace in Andy Samberg's performance. - 30
Arizona Republic
This is one of those movies you feel stupider just for having sat through. I think I'm already worse at math. - 20
New York Daily News
As awful as most of That's My Boy is, it's sort of mesmerizing to see how Sandler - in a script credited to David Caspe - keeps his touchstones in place.
