It's National Spooky Month, and you know what that means. It's time to watch all manner of movies spooky, scary, and Halloween themed. This year, Adam Sandler delivers the latest in his library of Netflix movies, Hubie Halloween. Hubie Dubois is the town snitch, hated by everyone but Julie Bowen, and he's about to save Halloween.
Hubie Halloween hits Netflix today and features Sandler himself, frequent co-star Kevin James, and Julie Bowen in starring roles, and too many cameos to name along the way. Critics are split on the movie, with the Rotten Tomatoes critics' score hovering around 60% fresh. After the insanity that was Uncut Gems, we can't be sure anymore what to expect from Sandler.

Now Playing: 10 Terrifying Horror Movies On Netflix To Watch Right Now
Hubie Halloween (2020)
Directed By: Steven Brill
Written By: Tim Herlihy, Adam Sandler
Starring: Adam Sandler, Julie Bowen, Kevin James, Ray Liotta, Steve Buschemi, and more.
Release Date: October 7, 2020
New York Post - 3/4
"Sandler has had a rough go with critics, often for good reason. Scanning his Rotten Tomatoes page is like peaking at the gradebook for a remedial math class: 12 percent, 27 percent, 9 percent. But “Hubie Halloween” proves that the problem isn’t that he’s starring in stupid movies; it’s that he’s not starring in enough of the right stupid movies." - Johnny Oleksinski [Full Review]
USA Today - 2.5/4
"Hardcore Sandman fans will find plenty to adore in “Hubie,” which is akin to a mini Baby Ruth candy bar in a trick-or-treat bag: sweet, gooey, nutty and satisfying enough." - Brian Truitt [Full Review]
RogerEbert.com - 2/4
"While he was doing press for “Uncut Gems,” Adam Sandler joked that if he didn’t get an Oscar for that film that he would torture us and make the worst Netflix comedy ever made for revenge. The good news is that this is not that movie. “Hubie Halloween” is just generally entertaining enough to be harmless, while also being the kind of movie that people will have trouble remembering exists by the time he makes “Tommy Thanksgiving”." - Brian Tallerico [Full Review]
AV Club
"Sandler, his co-screenwriter Tim Herlihy, and go-to director Steven Brill don’t have the patience to tease these elements out into a fresher variation on their preferred formulas, like The Week Of or Murder Mystery. The filmmakers haven’t tapped into a newfound talent for plotting out spooky mysteries, either… Yet there is something half-satisfying and pacifying about Hubie Halloween. In true content-blurring Netflix fashion, Sandler has essentially made a likable children’s movie to babysit undemanding adults." - Jesse Hassenger [Full Review]
THR
"Sandler's guileless performance charms, as wholesomely simple as his knockout turn in Uncut Gems was multifaceted. And Brill keeps the supporting cast from going overboard, as they're wont to do in Sandler pics. (We're looking at you, Schneider and Meadows.) With the exception of a surprisingly useful thermos, nearly no joke in the film will be remembered the next day. But Hubie is good company for old fans who've visited Happy and Billy too often to be surprised by their foibles and unlikely feats." - John DeFore [Full Review]
Variety
"Nobody’s breaking a sweat here, but even on autopilot, Sandler’s mugging is sort of exhaustingly impressive on its own terms. The actor’s recent change-of-pace role in “Uncut Gems” may have earned him critical plaudits for “real” acting, but there’s method and skill in this kind of shrill physical showmanship, even when it appears to be his default setting." - Guy Lodge [Full Review]
