Davey Stone (Adam Sandler), a 33-year old party animal, finds himself in trouble with the law after his wild ways go too far. In keeping with the holiday spirit, the judge gives Davey one last chance at redemption -- spend the holiday performing community service as the assistant referee for the youth basketball league or go to jail. Davey thinks he's gotten off easy until he meets Whitey Duvall, the eccentric, elf-like head referee.

Critics Consensus

Sandler returns to his roots in this nauseating concoction filled with potty humor and product placements.

There aren't enough creative Yiddish insults in the world to adequately express how much I hate Adam Sandler's "Eight Crazy Nights."

The film might have been funny if it weren't so poorly executed and fixated on bodily functions.

Film Frenzy

The corporate pimping is actually far more offensive than the scatological humor.

Rated: 1.5/4

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.

Wouldn’t really recommend Do not look at this move or you will be wasting a whole 1 hour and 16 minutes! I mean I love Adam Sandler but this is not one of his bests, maybe his worst. He played multiple roles at the same time and you could tell because of the voice, and the story is confusing to follow as well as the jokes! Some of the scenes were disturbing and just weird! I seriously can’t tell if this is supposed to be a kids movie or not? I would recommend staying away from this film if you want to keep your positive image on Adam Sandler.

No plot, no story, no interesting characters, and no good music leads this to have a horrible rating.

Ok, ignore the bad reviews, this movie is incredible! Why we got so many sandler haters up in here? No seriously, this man is talented, and he's proved in in his latest movie "Leo". This film has been appreciated by so many. Look, I'm 32 and I enjoyed it as much as my 10 year old and 15 year old did. I think this movie is halariois. Yes, it's raunchy at times, but you have to look beyond that. Also, we are representing different cultures, not mocking them. (Jewish community) Only a fool would say that this movie sucks. 🗣🚫 come on guys. Watch this movie
