A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action
The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
I liked this movie very much. Was it an award winning movie? No of course not. It was a very sweet nice movie designed to make you smile and just feel good for a couple of hours. Well mission accomplished. It was a very different kind of movie for David Hasselhoff and I think he pulled it off quite nicely. All in all a very decent film. I highly recommend it.
I'm sorry David Hasselhoff cannot sing & he can NOT act! This is possibly one of the worst movies I've ever seen. To be fair Hasselhoff was not the only one bad acting. The script was bad & the acting was bad & totally the wrong actors playing the parts. Epic fail! For any Christmas movie I watch I have high expectations but this movie didn't make me want Christmas at all. If I remember right (it's been a long time since I watched it)Hasselhoff was a pretty good actor back in the Knight Rider days. he now needs to retire. Caroline Rhea I usually like but she bombed badly here. Come on Lifetime, you can do much better than this.
I really enjoyed this, yes, it does have ups and downs--sometimes it seems that all is not going well but that is part of the fun! It reminds me a bit of "The Ref"---could some of the same people be involved {behind the scenes}? It concerns a modern, up to date family, who feel that they would like to get more out of their Christmas celebration with a little less work, but they are very short of free time.I hope to get a copy of it so I an play it whenever I want to! I think it is a lot of fun but be sure to watch it all the way to the end,I think you who commented that you found it "depressing" quit too soon.I am eager to see it again, and am recommending it to all my friends.Please give it a try!
Tepid Christmas tale is abhorrently unfunny, terribly corny, and should have never been made. Whoever approved this script should be washing cars for a living instead of writing screenplays. There's the dysfunctional family, the unrealistic plot, and the desire to make Christmas BETTER by having everyone screw up, act stupid, and hate each other...until the end that is. At first, I thought this was a Hallmark movie,but even they wouldn't go this far with one of their movies. Look, taste is subjective. I'm sure some people will like this movie. That's fine. THEY can watch it... I'll stick to the classics. Hey, I don't even like A Christmas Story, with "Ralphie" and his BB Gun, but understand how people could like THAT; it does have some cute elements, but this...this is Ho, Ho, Horrible!
