Hubie's not a popular guy in Salem, Massachusetts, but that won't stop this good-hearted but easily spooked man from keeping his town safe on Halloween. (Netflix)
Reviews (4)
Adam Sandler and perhaps the worst movie of his career. And he clearly doesn't care. But the worst thing about this story of a moron who gets on everyone's nerves by trying to ensure safety during Halloween is his apparent unwillingness to try to do anything. Just a blathering Sandler, a few cameos from his buddies, and another night of Netflix killed. Even Sandler himself can't enjoy doing this anymore.

As a fan of Adam Sandler's humor, I have to say this is one of his worst comedies I've seen. The only thing worse might be Grown Ups 2.

Sandler does these things on autopilot. He once again plays a simple, bullied loser who in the end hooks up with the hottest chick in town and finds happiness. This time it happens at Halloween and it’s just as stupidly funny as always. Nevertheless, Hubie had a surprise in store. The final twist works pretty well, just like mom’s T-shirts and the excellent Buscemi. Good for a Netflix movie.

It's hard to complain about the fact that it's terrible crap when I was expecting terrible crap. I'm rather disappointed anyway, because the film had much more potential and could have been funnier if it had been less awkward and if Adam Sandler didn't think that a character with a speech (and brain) impediment would be funny. The king of Hubie Halloween for me is Steve Buscemi - thanks to him, thanks to the main teenage protagonists and thanks to Maya Rudolph, at least it was worth something.
