There are sporadic laughs to be had from this gruesome guff, but most of them are nervous relieved titters when its not as bad as you feared rather than bellylaughs of genuine amusement.
06/02/08
Sentimentality and secretions, with a generous helping of blatant product placement, do not make for the most graceful of holiday entertainments.
09/17/07
Adam Sandler's goal may have been to provide a holiday movie with Chanukah as the central celebration, but it's not suitable for children and not entertaining to most adults.

The film might have been funny if it weren't so poorly executed and fixated on bodily functions.

[T]he movie is like a snotty little kid who thinks he can shock you with all the naughty words he knows...

06/26/03
Small-town goofballs, bizarre musical numbers and plenty of toilet humor -- ah, the holidays are here again.
05/20/03
it’s got all the warmth and charm of the Bataan Death March
04/05/03
Don't let your festive spirit go this far.

This movie's gotta be the result of some pot-induced wager between Adam Sandler and his nattering cronies: "Hey guys, I'm like a $20 million movie star! How freakin' FUNNY is that? I bet I can make ANY movie I want!"

Nothing but side-splitting, richly coloured, instant classic laughs -- all with the typical Sandler touch.
