What Parents Need to Know
About Grandma's Boy
Parents need to know that this movie glorifies drugs and prostitution, as well as immature, antisocial behavior. Characters frequently talk about sex and hookers. In one scene, the main character masturbates to orgasm in front of a Laura Craft doll and is caught by another character's mother. In another, a guy sucks on the breast of a half-naked woman for hours. There is also a big party where everyone, including the grandmother, gets drunk. Some characters are portrayed in an ethnically-insensitive manner.

A failed attempt at a funny stoner comedy
Grandma's Boy is a failed attempt at a funny hard R, stoner comedy. It has almost everything you need; pot, drinking, nudity, and sex jokes. It just lacks one crucial thing, humor. Throughout the whole movie, the only thing I chuckled at was the Lara Croft doll scene. Nowhere else did the movie even make me smirk. It also doesn't help that you're either highly irritated or bored by the characters. I have nothing against drugs and sex in movies, but here it just isn't funny. I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone and suggest that instead, they watch Harold&Kumar 1 and 2, Pineapple Express, the Friday series, How High, Half Baked, Cheech&Chong, or Dazed and Confused. All those movies are funnier then this. Parents should know that pretty much everybody drinks to excess and smokes marijuana in this movie. There is typical R-rated language (f**k, p***y, s**t and others). There is a scene of masturbation, and references to 69, hand-jobs, foursomes, filipino hookers, and a lot of other things. A 30-some year old man has sex with an old lady. There are naked breasts (not the old ladies) and one person sucks on them throughout an entire night. In closing, Grandma's Boy just isn't worth your time or money.

Basicly an advertisment of drugs.
This is probably one of the worst movies I have ever seen to put it lightly.

A treat for gamers
This movie is about being male, middle class, and white. And video games. Its not as explicit as the 40 year old virgin, but it isnt for children. I'd say its for kids 14+.
