A man named Adam Sandler has been heard about for many decades and years to years he’s either evolved or devolved into an inconsistent lineup of his own weird comedy movies. The good news is this is one of those films that’s absolutely hated on for so many unknown reasons making it an underrated gem. Don’t get me wrong I can see why people or jews in general would really have a grunge about this film, there are a lot of disgusting moments in this holiday flick. But let’s talk about the story from the perspective of someone who genuinely likes and dislikes Adam Sandler’s work. It starts off with a narration from Rob Schneider telling us the story about our main protagonist Davey. He’s a drunk addict, anger problem, **** who ruins the holiday for many people. And he does get into a lot of trouble in court, but another face appears that sends him out of jail for now named Whitey. A happy go lucky old elf that takes care of Davey and is the basketball referee. During this film you see a lot of great character development from Davey and see why he is so angry and horrible to people. He used to have a great life playing basketball with his friends but unfortunately heard horrible news about his parents being dead from a patch of black ice. Told said flashback from Whitey and for some weird reason even though Davey told him to stop talking about his traumatic past. Keeps going on with the story and Davey snaps and goes through a hallucination of all the mall products from the beginning of the film. And after playing a song to him, Davey makes the choice of Redemption and sees and spills the truth from Whitey’s abuse. And in the end, Whitey wins all of the rewards from everyone else and get’s so exited he has a seizure again. I forgot to talk about the other scenes but overall this is a great and really funny film. The comedy from Whitey, Eleanore, Davey and the Chinese waiter is really funny and actually impressive that Adam Sandler voiced all three differently distinct characters. Also I never even talked about everything else because it’s no secret that it's all really great. The musical scores are very fun and catchy as hell, the animation is absolutely gorgeous in every way. And the writing may have been too disgusting and foul in many parts, but it has a lot of wit, character development and some story progression all around.

This movie's dumb af but it's fine. The first song, Davey's Song, is actually very catchy. Plus I like the scene of him in the mall talking to the mascots. Good scene.

never in history has there been a more unfunny, ugly, mean-spirited, annoying, manipulative, racist, product-placed, nauseating, offensive, and bad voice-acted movie with an unlikable lead!

what a big terrible christmas movie! one of the worst christmas movies ever!

What a waste of good animation with this garbage, this is worst Sandler ever. I'm not a huge of Adam Sandler, but there are better Sandler movies than this. Humor is dumb and the main character is too unlikable.

If not for the decent animation and the pretty compact runtime (it's 76 minutes, but it feels even longer), this would be a 0 out of 10. As it stands, "Eight Crazy Nights" is a filmmaking abomination. Many people bring up films like "Jack and Jill" and "That's My Boy" as examples of Adam Sandler's worst films, but they often forget that "Eight Crazy Nights" exists, and for good reason. An awful story, terrible characters, an unfunny script, cringe-worthy music, overuse of toilet humor and product placement, the list just goes on and on. Please, please, DO NOT watch this movie. You will be a better person if you just forget the film's existence and move on. No matter how curious you are, AVOID THIS MOVIE!

The only thing great about Eight Crazy Nights is the animation. Everything else managed to sink itself into the drain when the drain plug is opened straight.

I’ve wanted a Channukah movie for years but not like this. 8 Crazy Nights isn’t just a terrible Channukah movie, or a bad film, but one of the most offensive cartoons I’ve ever seen. Not just because of its stereotyping but because of the auteurism of Adam Sandler. The same cliché story about **** finding love, the offensive humor full of the lowest form of humor poop and fart jokes, and **** voices all combine to create a cartoon that is both unpleasant to watch and just plain torture making 1 hour and ½ feel like an eternity. The biggest mitzvah you can do yourself is not watch this movie if you see it playing around Channukah. Listen to the Channukah Song by Adam Sandler, spend time with friends and family, or anything beside watching this turd of a movie. My Channukah present to all of you is that I sat through this movie so you don’t have to. Take my word it ****. Leave it leave. If you thought you hated Adam Sandler’s humor before…..Nonetheless, have a happy Channuakah.

How can such a funny man working with a beautiful animation studio make such a juvenile, unfunny mess? This movie is animated like a holiday special, but lacks any cheers.

This movie was officially written for drunken infants. Can't see any way this could be considered even a BIT entertaining or likable; a testament to the lows, as a race, that we are capable of. Seriously, AVOID.

I think any random 12 year old kid could write a better script. It fails horribly at both the story and the character design, and the jokes are pretty much the unfunniest and most awful ones I've ever heard in any movie. I give 2 mercy points for the decent animation.

An excellent movie to watch during the holidays. The humor is grosser than most other Sandler movies, and it's actually part musical. If your a Sandler fan you'll love it, haters gonna hate.
