Movie Review: ‘That’s My Boy’ Starring Adam Sandler, Andy Samberg, Leighton Meester

Posted: June 15, 2012 at 9:42 am   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews

There has never been an Adam Sandler film I have ever been excited about.  I caught Happy Gilmore on HBO when I was younger, but that is the extent of my toleration of his films.  This is very important to note because if you are a fan of his brand of comedy and have liked […]
