Hubie Halloween
Well Adam Sandler warned us all that if he got snubbed for a Oscar that he would come back and make the worst movie possible. He may not have deserved a Oscar for the overrated mediocre film in Uncut Gems but man if it would have spared the world the travesty of ever seeing this film, then man he should have gotten that nomination. This movie sucks, its unfunny and tough to get through. It may not be the low point for Adam Sandler but its not something to be proud of. There is a few laughs and even more missed jokes. Good for Sandler giving his buddies work but c’mon man give them something good to work with. As truly terrible as this movie is there is one lone bright spot.
Steve ****ing Buschemi deserves a Oscar for his work here. I mean he was able to get some laughs out of this awful script. Once its revealed he isnt actually a werewolf that's when he starts to shine. Especially in the final scene. Between him licking himself and him delivering the best line of the movie. I don’t remember what that line exactly is because I have already deleted this crapfest of a movie from my mind. Still though he was the highlight of this movie.
Bonus for the few other laughs: Kennan Thompson wasn’t used much but he has a few laughs. Again in the end scene he has decent lines, that at least get you to smile. Shaq is ok in his brief cameo as well.
Now lets get to all that is wrong here which is basically the whole movie.
Adam Sandler: Has any of his stupid voices been funny since The Waterboy? That may be the last time his silly voice was actually funny. The king of terrible voice accents strikes again here. I don’t know who’s idea it was to make him slightly retarded here but they need to stop making movies or produce any ideas for movies. Just have Sandler play himself and he can pull of the idiot role on his own.The voice he does here instantaneously make you regret even putting that unfunny movie one. For the love of my hearing please stop doing accents.
Kevin James makeup: That is hands down the worst fake hair and beard of all time. It looks like they were both falling off all the time. Fakeist looking **** I have ever seen. He does indeed look like a Muppet (I’ll admit this was a joke in the movie that I stole).
The callbacks: This has a few old references to his older movies and they don’t work. There is another dumb O’Doyle kid still yelling how those dumb ****s rule. 25 years later and that family still cant reproduce a smart child. Ben Stiller reprising one of his better roles of Hal the orderly also fails hard. Its a wasted cameo that doesnt have any joke behind it or at least a joke that lands. There was even a reference to Ace Ventura Pet detective, that doesnt even work. I don’t know if it should be called a reference or plagiarism since they lifted the dialogue right from the scene. The only difference is that Jim Carey was funny when he said it and I just wanted to punch Sandler in his dumb face.
Unfunny: 95% of this so called comedy is unfunny. There are a few laughs mixed in here, and I mean very few laughs. I mean sure they attempted jokes but those jokes all flat on their face. That vomit and poop gags don’t work. You want some old ladies wearing sexual shirts that don’t understand the sex jokes, then this movie is full of them. The thermos having all these gadgets in it like Batmans utility belt wasn’t funny. Oh hey look its a grappling hook and it pours out soup, the comedy genius. Hey the jokes wasn’t funny the first time and it doesnt get any funnier the next 1000 times.
We are getting old: Everyone from my childhood is getting ****ing old. Ben Stiller looks old. Chet Hunter (the old guy in all of Adam Sandler’s movies and Shawns dad Boys Meets World) looks ****ing ancient, Schneider looks rough.Buscehmi has always looked old but now he looks like someones big eyed grandpa. Sandler has aged well. Julie Bowen is the only one that has aged well and looks even better the she did in Happy Gilmore. Hell even the kid from Stranger Things is old . No way they can pull off playing little kids anymore. Unless they use a time jump in years to explain how old they look. You can get the **** outta here with them being kids.
All in all this movie sucks. Its tough to even sit through. Its ****ing dumb and its not even fun dumb. Its just another sad step for Adam Sandler’s movie career. He hasn’t made a decent movie in so long. His career is filled with complete crappy movies. This isnt the worst of the bunch but its not a movie to be proud of either. But what the **** does he care, he has made so much money off of us ****ing idiots who keep watching his garbage. Again Uncut Gems was a overrated mediocre movie and frankly he wasn’t very good in it but if it would have spared s from this movie then maybe he should have been nominated. 3.5/10

WARNING: "Spoilers" spoilers below
The ending: A) His mother being the kidnapper was ****ing dumb. B) Having all the other characters listing their faults and why they pick on Hubie was just as dumb. This was such a forced lesson in bullying to kids. I get this a kids movie but even a kid has to groan on the forced nature of the lesson that bullying is bad. Bowen’s and Sandler’s characters get together in the end and her kids are real quick to call him dad. They were real desperate to get a dad in their lives.
