Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights Reviews
The corporate pimping is actually far more offensive than the scatological humor.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | May 8, 2023
The juvenile nastiness can be pretty darn funny when it clicks, but the fact that you actually feel for any of these characters is a testament to the attempt to tell a meaningful story.

While Eight Crazy Nights might not quite be the "nauseating concoction" that Rotten Tomatoes describes it to be, admittedly the film is rather poor overall.
| Original Score: C- | Aug 28, 2022
There aren't enough creative Yiddish insults in the world to adequately express how much I hate Adam Sandler's "Eight Crazy Nights."
| Original Score: 0/4 | Dec 2, 2018
Eight Crazy Nights is ... a fable of redemption that paradoxically confirms the protagonist in his degradation.

Ouch. Lame Sandler attempt at holiday humor.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 2, 2010
A nearly unwatchable waste of time...

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 7, 2008
There are sporadic laughs to be had from this gruesome guff, but most of them are nervous relieved titters when its not as bad as you feared rather than bellylaughs of genuine amusement.

Sentimentality and secretions, with a generous helping of blatant product placement, do not make for the most graceful of holiday entertainments.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 17, 2007
Adam Sandler's goal may have been to provide a holiday movie with Chanukah as the central celebration, but it's not suitable for children and not entertaining to most adults.
| Original Score: 21/100 | Jul 18, 2007
The film might have been funny if it weren't so poorly executed and fixated on bodily functions.

[T]he movie is like a snotty little kid who thinks he can shock you with all the naughty words he knows...
| Dec 21, 2004
... a story whose cleverness and meaning is sullied among horseplay we can't take the kids to see.
Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 20, 2004
It's about time that all the Christmas movies out there were balanced with a decent Hannukah movie. Sadly, this isn't it.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 30, 2003
...ideal for Adam Sandler fans who were confused by Punch-Drunk Love.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 1, 2003
Only in the world of Adam Sandler could an animated message of inter-faith holiday appreciation be mixed in with a sextet of defecating deer, a woman with three breasts and songs about hatred and drinking.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 26, 2003
Small-town goofballs, bizarre musical numbers and plenty of toilet humor -- ah, the holidays are here again.
Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | May 20, 2003
it's got all the warmth and charm of the Bataan Death March
| Original Score: 0/5 | Apr 5, 2003
Don't let your festive spirit go this far.
