Uncut Gems has some of the best piece of acting I've seen in recent memory. Adam proved to me he is fucking good.

Imo he can make whatever trash vacation movie he wants. He earned it.

I ended up enjoying this way more than I thought I would. As others have said, yes, it's very stupid. But who cares? Everybody involved in the making of it knows what they're making.

Plus there are character cameos from other Happy Madison movies. So we got a Happy Madison Cinematic Universe going.

This has always been a thing though... The Odoyles have been in every film since Billy Madison.

I can't believe they got dear sweet June Squibb to wear those shirts lmao.

Film wasn't very good but it wasn't bottom-rung Sandler either. 4/10.

Not a good movie, but I got a couple of chuckles out of it. Shaq cameo is the best part.

Watched it with my kids (9 & 11) and we really liked it. Goofy Halloween hijinks, not as scary as the trailer makes it seem.
The mother's t-shirts! Holy shit, the best part of the movie.

Yeah, Sandler is on the latest episode of Smartless that premiered today and he specifically said he made this movie in particular for his kids to enjoy.
Cannot really knock my man doing it for his kids.
I also had no idea it was out already, so may kill a few hours on Friday night. I expect fully goofy and silly.

Made it through the halfway point and tapped out. The worst of the Sandler Netflix movies.

I really like Adam Sandler even his pretty bad movies, one thing I've never really enjoyed is his "silly voice". If you can get beyond that though the movie is definitely enjoyable even if you're older, it's just kinda dumb fun.

Yeah I may have enjoyed this movie if he didn't do that voice. I could barely hear him, I was glad I had subtitles.

This is also probably why his kids are both in the movie.

I loved it, Hubie got those zohan type reflexes on that bike. It was a whose who of guest appearances too!

The swerve with buscemi was excellent

I went into this seeing that people seemed to genuinely enjoy it, and what I realized is 2020 has broken a lot of people. It was typical Sandler fair, which like, okay if you like that, but it's not good. The only solid part was Buscemi.

Certainly no masterpiece but I enjoyed it. Wish the celebrity cameos had been funnier though, they were kinda just there

Haven't seen a Sandler flick in ages aside from Uncut Gems.

That being said... dumb movie but it was okay I guess, lol. It was pleasant enough to watch. Maybe I'll put it on for my students to watch on Halloween week? Lol

Wife and I watched this over the weekend. It's definitely in the top 50% of Adam Sandler "Funny Voice" comedies. Enjoyed all the cameos and I am admittedly a sucker for Sandler's voices. Overall, a pretty decent rainy Sunday afternoon movie.

News anchor says she was fired for appearing in new Adam Sandler movie - The Boston Globe

Alaina Pinto said she was "deeply disappointed and saddened" by the decision by WHDH Channel 7 News Boston.

This is one of the more ridiculous things I've seen in a while.
The station she worked for is one of those weird unaffiliated stations after losing its NBC contract. The owners seemed pretty combative and litigious so it isn't surprising.

Enjoyed it, the world needs more family Halloween movies

My only old man shouts at cloud comment would be that it seems pointless to drop a couple of 'shits' in there, I was creasing up at some of the t shirts but thankfully it went over the kids head

I haven't watched a happy madison movie in awhile but I thought it was nice. A lot of the jokes don't land for me but it was a nice family halloween movie with a decent message to not be a dick.

I didn't even know about this film. A silly dumb Adam Sandler Halloween movie? It's like what I really need at the moment so looking forward to watching it this month.

Lol. I enjoyed it and its doubly sweet since it seemed like Sandler just made the movie to hand with his daughters.

Just randomly watched this and had some laughs from how ridiculous it is. The termo and "avoiding stuff while riding bike" were honestly the funniest thing. Most other jokes were just not even half smart. It's a crappy movie, but if you go watch it to laugh at dumb stuff then it's a good use of time.

I enjoyed this. Just a silly fun time. Also any movie that features a Siberian Husky is going to get some extra points.

Watched the movie today and I enjoyed it for what it is worth. I did like the references to Sandlers older films.
