The Christmas Letter

I'm sorry but wow. This Christmas movie was a waste my money and 90 minutes of my life. The Chevy Chase and Randy Quaid is just a purchase trap. The duo of the Christmas Vacation greats is far from expectations. They are hardly in the movie. Bad editing, Bad acting, bad special effects, horrible story and plot. Best acting in the movie was the from the guy on the golf cart with the oxygen tank. I paid $17 to purchase this movie, I immediately applied for a refund. I should of known by the bad trailer... the movie is just as bad. Giving this movie a review of only 2 stars cause I like Clark and Eddie.

I paid $4.99 to rent this disaster! It's the stupidest movie I've ever watched.. dumb writing, even worse acting. Chevy Chase should be embarrassed. What a waste of his time. Randy Quade just awful. I repeat the worst waste of my time ever. Never funny, not one laugh. Do not waste any money on this horrendous piece of junk. Who thought this was funny? Who could have put their name on this disaster? You are nuts if you rent this movie. A complete waste of your time and money. Please stay away from this. Awful, terrible movie. Bring a barf bag if you rent it. Stay away please. Never a funny moment.

Chevy Chase & Randy Quaid reuniting atop the bill of a new Christmas movie sounds too good to be true... cos it isn't true. Despite opening the credits of abysmal, cheap, stinker "The Christmas Letter" Chase & Quaid only have minor cameos in it, while the atrocious Kristoffer Polaha is the lead as an average-joe so jealous of the annual brag-fest letter he gets from rich childhood pen-pal Lance Bonza that despite losing his job he plans his own year of crazy expensive activities... each of which is a disaster (ha ha). Director Tori Hunter & writer Michael Cunnigham (both first timers) should never work again, while Chase & Quaid should hang their heads it is so so bad.

OMG!! Where does one even begin with this monstrosity for an excuse for a Christmas movie? How in what world can it happen that when you have one of the greatest comedic actors of all time, Chevy Chase aka Norm De Plume, cast in your movie and the result ends up being such a complete POS? Chevy is probably glad that he will never ever work with Director Tori Hunter & Writer Michael Cunnigham ever again. On a scale of 1 - 10 this stinker of a movie comes in at -100. (That is negative 100) Yes, it is that bad. I'm curious if one has to be on something in order to get even a single laugh from this movie because without being on anything it certainly did not make me crack a smile once let alone make me even come close to any attempt at a laugh. The script was so bad it barely even makes any sense. I felt bad for Chevy and Randy that they had to stick to the script and push through scenes that were so humorless that I'm sure they were constantly asking themselves if it (the pain) was over yet. Don't say I didn't warn you if you end up watching this absolute mess. Hopefully Chevy can redeem himself in the next movie. Please pass the gravy because this meal tastes like absolute garbage. 1 Star Only!!

And that says a lot because there are sooooo many crappy movies out there. Obviously Chevy Chase and Randy Quaid were cast to draw in dumb viewers like me. This movie was terrible. My 10 and 12 year old grandchildren write better than the drivel in The Christmas Letter. Unimaginative, lazy, and simplistic dialog that absolutely ruins a great concept for a Christmas movie. The acting was terrible with the exception of the actor playing the mother. I feel like I got robbed by paying $15 to watch. I should demand a refund. Hollywood needs to lift their standards fast before the unintelligent writing and acting tears it to the ground.
