Storyline Adam Sandler invites you to share some holiday cheer in the new, no-holds-barred musical comedy Adam Sandler's 8 Crazy Nights. Davey Stone, a 33-year old party animal, finds himself in trouble with the law after his wild ways go too far. In keeping with the holiday spirit, the judge gives Davey one last chance at redemption-spend the holiday performing community service as the assistant referee for the youth basketball league or go to jail. Davey thinks he's gotten off easy until he meets Whitey Duvall, the eccentric, elf-like head referee. The mismatch between Whitey's good heart and never-ending optimism and Davey's constant troublemaking soon have them both wondering if going to jail wouldn't have been easier! In this new, full-length animated feature about basketball, old girlfriends, holiday spirits, and the mall, Adam Sandler voices the three lead characters of Whitey, Davey, and Whitey's fraternal twin sister Eleanore!

User Review
funny movie (i'm no sandler fanatic)
Rating: 9/10
I saw this movie a year or so ago on television. I had never even heard
of it before but when I sat down to watch it I thought it was a pretty
funny movie that did a good job of capturing the holiday spirit. I see
that there are a lot of sandler enthusiasts on here who think this
movie sucks because they have to compare this movie with all of his
other work. I don't think I would even place a movie like this in the
same critical category as his other films. With that being said I
thought the movie was original in perspective and outright hilarious.
Whitey Duvall makes me laugh every time I see his odd shaped feet and
hear his squeaky voice. This film has a pretty mature sense of humor
and wouldn't be suitable for small children but if you have teenagers i
think it's great for a family laugh.
