Even with Pauly Shore as the "star," this 1993 comedy is a bit better than you might think. Shore plays an insouciant college student asked by a friend (Carla Gugino) to pretend to be her fiancé over Thanksgiving break, thus discouraging a jerk back in her hometown from proposing. Shore's character agrees but is given a hard time by the girl's salt-of-the-earth family of farmers. The hero and Gugino's character actually have a crush on each other, and now that they have an opportunity to explore romance, their relationship is threatened by poor Pauly's tests of rural manhood. Shore aside, the strong cast--including Gugino and Lane Smith--lend this thing some credibility; and the script doesn't take any shortcuts in moving the characters beyond their assumptions about one another. --Tom Keogh

This is a movie about a young country girl going to a big college in California and meeting some cocky kid that turns the lives around for the whole family. So you can watch it once and figure it is B rate and the next time you see it better wait a couple years.

Son in Law is an AWESOME movie. It is WELL worth the money. It has an original storyline with great acting.
Summary: Rebecca (Carla Gugino) is a small town farm girl who decides to leave her family and boyfriend to go to college in the huge city. This is where she meets "Crawl" (Pauly Shore) who is her RA. Well Crawl decides to accompany "Becca" back to her small town home for Thanksgiving and that is where everything goes wrong. The family doesn't like Crawl so they make his life miserable not to mention Becca's boyfriend. Buy the movie to find out what happens to Crawl in this mishap comedy.
This movie is full of laughs and if you never buy another comedy again you have to buy Son in Law. I don't think I have seen a funnier comedy. Son in Law is Pauly Shore at his best. You will NOT be dissappointed with this movie.
Just too funny January 20, 2009

My whole family who has varied interests all agree this is one funny movie. Purchased it in video, lent it out, has not returned. Had to buy it again. I usually do not watch movies more than once. I can watch this many times over. No bad language, violance or nudity either.

This is by far the best I've seen of Poly Shore. As a matter of fact he doesn't get any better. I know that many don't like him, but you should really give this one a chance. If you like to laugh this will will do it!
Laugh Your A## Off February 13, 2008
F. Carlsen (Belmont, CA)
This is a corn-ball comedy that I thought I'd hate and ended up laughing until the tears were coming from my eyes.
The setup is well done, the story very funny, and then it ends with--well you find out.
If you like to laugh this movie is for you.
