Movie is nice and dumb, just the way I like it. You can feel how much fun the cast and crew had when you watch this movie and it's great. Is it Citizen Kane? Of course not.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I liked it. Its more reminiscent of old school sandler movies like happy gilmore. Some laugh out loud moments and cool to see sandler with his happy gilmore love interest. Great Hal L cameo. That was a great way to start the movie.… Expand

Adam Sandler plays a mentally impaired deli worker in this fun-filled, star-studded Halloween romp. You don't want to miss it! Surprises abound, the laughs and scares never stop. You will not be disappointed!

This almost feels like a love letter to the Sandler films of old. There are a ton of references made to some of his most notable works and we see him step back into a role similar to the ones he played in movies like The Waterboy and LittleThis almost feels like a love letter to the Sandler films of old. There are a ton of references made to some of his most notable works and we see him step back into a role similar to the ones he played in movies like The Waterboy and Little Nicky by adopting the persona of a loser with a speech impediment. It's good fun, but while the former SNL star's Netflix outings have gradually been improving in quality Hubie Halloween doesn't quite live up to its inspirations.

Some jokes just fall flat on their face and the biggest laughs often come from the supporting cast, which means the Sandman himself regularly has his thunder stolen by his co-stars despite being the one who's onscreen the most. Part of this is due to just how bizarre his character actually is. Happy Madison comedies are always filled with weirdos and oddballs, but Hubie is too cartoonish for his own good with his kitted-out thermos and penchant for freaking out at the slightest fright. There is a likable quality to him however as he really is a good, goofy dude that doesn't deserve all the cruelty he is subjected to. This leads to a nice anti-bullying message that's good for children. In fact, outside of a character played by Maya Rudolph who makes it very clear she's sexually unsatisfied in her relationship and one or two more suggestive jokes this is actually a decent choice for an October family movie night.

Overall, this is a solid little holiday caper. Happy Madison's comedy is still proving to be a bit hit or miss these days, but this is easily their most consistently amusing release in some time. It's throwback nature does allow it recapture the magic of Sandler classics like Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore at times as well. However, this is still probably only going to strike a chord with the comedian's most ardent fans.

This movie is so stupid and bad, its hilarious and I love it. Adam Sandler plays a complete weirdo, and it's so bad it's good.
