Hubie Halloween (2020)

While promoting his excellent performance in Uncut Gems, Adam Sandler said he would make all critics pay by making a bad movie on purpose if he didn’t win an Oscar. Is Hubie Halloween what he warned us about? Hard to say. This is very much a Happy Madison film. Those who like that style of comedy will enjoy this holiday special. A fair number of jokes work. There's a certain innocent charm. To non-members, some of it feels like a parody of an Adam Sandler movie. Is this intentional? More importantly, does it work?

Hubie Dubois (Sandler) is dedicated to safety on Halloween night, for which nearly everyone in Salem, Massachusetts ridicules him. When his new neighbor, Walter (Steve Buscemi) begins acting peculiarly, a patient escapes from a nearby mental institution, and some of the city’s rudest residents vanish, only Hubie’s attention to detail makes him notice.

Each of the Sandman’s trademarks is here. Cameo by a sports celebrity? Shaquille O’Neal counts. Funny voices? Hubie speaks in one. Juvenile humor? His mother (June Squibb) always wears shirts with randy slogans she doesn’t understand. Unbelievable love plot? Violet Valentine (Julie Bowen) would never give Hubie the time of day in the real world. A cast largely composed of Sandler’s buddies? Kevin James, Rob Schneider, the Sandler children, and others all appear throughout. What makes this different from “The Wrong Missy”? The humor is generally less mean-spirited. There are even some funny recurring gags, such as the unanimous hatred Salem’s children have for Hubie. Everywhere he goes, he has to dodge increasingly deadly projectiles.

This last point made me wonder if this movie wasn’t made “bad” on purpose. The first scene has the escaped mental patient pad his bed with a dummy that comes complete with a hotdog wiener… wiener. The cheap sentimentality with Violent Valentine’s children wasn’t necessary but it’s there. A twist of the knife for critics perhaps? I’m probably giving him too much credit. Or am I? The cast and crew knew what they were doing. They know Happy Madison films are beloved by some and hated by the rest. Sandler tried to appeal to the “serious” crowd. It didn't work out. Can you blame him for making a movie for his fans instead of those snobs instead?

So is this a good movie? I still can't say "yes". For all the gags that pay off, there are twice as many groaners. While it's good to give your audience what they want, this is the bare minimum. We expect more than just serviceable origin stories from superhero films because the genre has evolved. There’s no reason for this movie to be so unambitious. Hubie Halloween could be smarter, better, and still appeal to its intended crowd.

You could do much much worse than Hubie Halloween and what it does well will make it satisfactory to Adam Sandler’s fans and for kids. For everyone else, it’s just more of what you didn’t like all over again. (October 10, 2020)

Sonny es un tipo sin más complicaciones que sus trabajos ocasionales y, él mismo. Para contentar a su novia dando el siguiente paso, decide adoptar un niño. Pero es abandonado por ella sin posibilidad para devolver al pequeño. Divertido Adam Sandler en este papel, demostrando con naturalidad lo bien que puede hacerlo un padre (con algo de práctica ), con su toque travieso y gamberro, pero de buen corazón. #UnPapáGenial #AdamSandler #ColeSprouse #LeslieMann #DylanSprouse #JoeyLaurenAdams #RobSchneider #JonStewart #KristySwanson #SteveBucemi #AllenCovert #JoshMostel #PeterDante #Películas1999 #Comedia #Comedy #Son #CríticaCine #Review #Family #Father #Park #Joke #CentralPark #Hugs #Adoption #WC #FastFood ## https://www.instagram.com/p/CLkShx1nMF6/?igshid=vdhkgpdbylo4

They never met a hot dog they didn’t like...until now. They don’t run the fastest. They don’t jump the highest. But they sure are getting the last laugh. What promised to be a fun summer at Camp Hope turns out to be less than ideal when the new camp owner is “fitness guru” Tony Perkis. (who is literally a White Goodman prototype - omg) Ohmylawd the 90s nostalgia! and damn - yet another camp movie that makes me sad I never got to go to camp as a kid, so jealous of anyone who did. sigh. lucky. Before watching this i think i got it confused with Bushwhacked - which I probably need to go watch now. The video for the camp, all the hiding places (both on their person, in their luggage and in their cabin) for all the candy and food, the pez sounding like bullets, the new camp uniforms (🤦🏼‍♀️also were those skier/slidy things That slippery?!), #BenStiller’s hair (omg he or his body double were ripped 😳) and the Bushkins were played by his parents! The letter voice-over montage, Lars and Tim dancing at the dance, rolling down the hill with all that camping equipment (OUCH!) What happened to Josh while he was gone? and why were the gaps on the bathroom stall doors SO big?! it had a few, to me at least, funny lines: “I eat success for breakfast with skim milk.” - “Do you think I’m crazy? I’m not crazy.” - “You’ve broken my camera.” - “Alright Sims, way to hustle, like a rocket, there ya go.” - “Oh look, a deli meat.” - “This place used to stink very little.” I would buy this one. #perkisizing #oilymuscles #washboardstomach #PartTheWildHorsesMane #comedy #drama #family #ssmovieof2017 #netflixpurge #DavidGoldman #JosephWayneMiller #CodyBurger #AllenCovert #TimBlakeNelson #LeahLail #TomMcGowan #AaronSchwartz #ShawnWeiss #TomHodges #PaulFeig #KenanThompson #DavidBowe #JeffreyTambor #JerryStiller #AnneMeara writers: #JuddApatow #StevenBrill director: Steven Brill movie of 2017 number 28) #HeavyWeights

The wife and re-visited this classic stoner comedy. She had seen pieces of it walking thru the room when I watched it with friends. This is my second copy if that gives you an idea as to how many times I have watched this flic. If you have not seen it I highly recommend you do while the culture references are still relevant. #grandmasboy #allencovert #stonercomedy #nickswardson #videogames #dorisroberts #steelreserve #shirleyjones #silverfox #peterdante #itsforyouithinkitsthedevil #jonahhill #ithinkyoushatteredit #mrcheezle #drshakalu #itgivesyouantlers #demonik #brainasium #eternaldeathslayer3 #mybeefstrong

Jack and Jill (2011)

From Saturday Night Live to a multimillion-dollar film mogul, Adam Sandler didn’t get that far without crafting a recognisable formula of boundary-breaking comedy. Although, recently, this has translated into a lucrative line of bankable films. In 2011, Sandler pushed his comedic envelope for one of his most controversial, yet iconic roles, as both pairs of twins, in Jack and Jill. Al Pacino has…
