Eight Crazy Nights movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: Priceless. Read more
Christine Dolen, Miami Herald: Do not, under any circumstances, consider taking a child younger than middle school age to this wallow in crude humor. Read more
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper: Got a lot of holiday spirit, and a lot of laughs. Read more
Susan Stark, Detroit News: Without question, it is not the major Hanukkah family classic just waiting to be made. Read more
Mark Caro, Chicago Tribune: Who is this movie for? Not kids, who don't need the lesson in repugnance. It's also not smart or barbed enough for older viewers -- not everyone thinks poo-poo jokes are 'edgy.' Read more
Elvis Mitchell, New York Times: Nights is festooned with yards of gross-out jokes, sniggering allusions and, astonishingly, a sentimental climax that's more repellent than any of the crude effluvia the film is drenched with. Read more
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times: All this is rendered with pedestrian animation, deadly dialogue, and a general air of indifference, as if the whole thing was the result of a late-night bet, or a joke gone horribly wrong. Read more
Atlanta Journal-Constitution: Audiences have at least 80 reasons to reject Eight Crazy Nights. Read more
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: On the whole, this lively, bittersweet Columbia release works well and is sure to connect strongly with fans of Sandler at his most free-wheeling and uninhibited. Read more
Roger Moore, Houston Chronicle: Sets animation back 30 years, musicals back 40 years and Judaism back at least 50. Read more
Bruce Fretts, Entertainment Weekly: The most ill-conceived animated comedy since the 1991 dog Rover Dangerfield. Read more
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail: There is something poignant about being 'the only kid in town without a Christmas tree.' Too bad you have to dig through so much stinky stuff to get to it. Read more
Gary Dowell, Dallas Morning News: If you're burnt out on It's a Wonderful Life marathons and bored with A Christmas Carol, it might just be the movie you're looking for. It depends on how well flatulence gags fit into your holiday concept. Read more
Dan Fienberg, L.A. Weekly: The cartoon is about as true to the spirit of the Festival of Lights as Mr. Deeds was to that of Frank Capra. Read more
John Anderson, Newsday: Animated drivel meant to enhance the self-image of drooling idiots. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: The only time 8 Crazy Nights comes close to hitting a comedic or satirical target is during the offbeat musical numbers. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: If there was ever a movie where the upbeat ending feels like a copout, this is the one. Read more
C.W. Nevius, San Francisco Chronicle: You've never seen a movie go from awwwww to ewwwww so fast. Read more
Peter Howell, Toronto Star: Sandler is remaining true to his own traditions, although it remains to be seen whether anyone will thank him for that once they've seen the movie. Read more
Time Out: The film might have been funny if it weren't so poorly executed and fixated on bodily functions. Read more
Mike Clark, USA Today: Adam Sandler's 8 Crazy Nights is 75 wasted minutes of Sandler as the voice-over hero in Columbia Pictures' perverse idea of an animated holiday movie. Read more
Ed Halter, Village Voice: Squanders the cross-cultural comedy potential of a Jewish-themed Christmas movie on cheap fart gags and boilerplate schmaltz. Read more
Desson Thomson, Washington Post: Isn't appropriate for any innocent child. Read more
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post: Was Punch-Drunk Love only a dream? Read more
