“Eight Crazy Nights” is quite possibly the only Hollywood Hanukkah movie and it’s a real shame because there are so many Christmas movies to pick from and so many good ones such as “It’s A Wonderful Life” and the various versions of “A Christmas Carol”. This animated abomination is not just one of the worst holiday movies ever made but one of the absolute worst movies I have ever seen (it’s up there with “The Interview”).

“Eight Crazy Nights” focuses on a mean-spirited alcoholic by the name of Davey (Adam Sandler “Happy Gilmore”, “Big Daddy”). He hates Hanukkah and Christmas and is about to go to prison when an old basketball referee called Whitey, who is also voiced by Sandler, offers to take him under his wing.

Adam Sandler is one of the worst comedians of all-time. Many of his movies including (but not limited to) “Punch-Drunk Love” and “Hotel Transylvania” caused me some real pain. His voice acting is unbearable as both Davey and Whitey. The Davey character is so cruel that in one scene, he covers the Whitey character in excrement and then freezes him and in another scene, he inserts the old man’s finger into one of his orifices. There are few scenes featuring some deer, who manage to produce a great deal of excrement in one scene. The animation throughout the picture is disgraceful.

You might think this a family movie because it’s animated and features music numbers but the comedy is more in tune with the worst parts of “Jackass” and the product placement in this movie is unbelievable. The film is truly disgusting; it features lots of bad language, ghastly animation, a truly nasty tone, horrendous music numbers and the jokes are so unfunny that you more likely to be amused by going to a funeral. This movie is actually so terrible that it surprised me that even Adam Sandler could sink this low. This is not a film for kids and it’s not even a movie for anybody besides Adam Sandler.
