Navidad en el paraíso

I love Kelsey Grammer and I enjoyed Fraser but this is terrible. The casting is all wrong. The 3 kids Don't look young enough to be Kelsey's daughters. Kelsey Grammer is 67 years old and Elizabeth Hurley ,although she looks great ,is 57 years old and is supposed to be his daughter. The youngest daughter is in college . Also, I'm not a fan of Billy Ray Cyrus but , I guess was OK in it. I was looking forward to this Christmas movie but it's a definite pass. I wouldn't waste my time. I just felt the casting was all wrong and I couldn't get beyond that. The story is kind of dumb also. Sadly I cannot recommend this.

First, It is nice and not too heavy and had its sweet moments.

I honestly love me some Elizabeth Hurley- and Kelsey Grammer but 1) the casting in this was ( I'm gonna say it) just weird. Elizabeth Hurley- is Kelsey's daughter ? And she a newly pregnant mom? She looks amazing true but quite the stretch. The youngest daughter is ( I could be wrong about this) recently out of college? Okay so I guess we're suppose to use our creative mind- EH has a baby a little later in life. Ok. The youngest daughter went back to college or whatever but none of them barely look young enough to be his daughters? Billy Ray was Billy Ray- decent job all the way through but this was just a hard one to watch for me I love Christmas movies and am good with mushy or sappy but this was just a bit off and odd.

Liz Hurley just had a baby in this movie... Never do anybody mention that she is close to 60! And she certainly looks it, even if they try hard to make her look younger.

If you like Billie Ray Cyrus, you might enjoy 7% of the film, otherwise, stay clear of it! The script is thin an unbeliveable, the acting is poor, the plot doesn't exist, so giving it two stars is based on a few glimps of decent Kelsey Grammer acting.

When Billie Ray is playing and singing, he is backed by bands and choirs, even when he is alone. He doesn't move his hand, and still plays the guitar.

The movie does talk about illness, serious enough, but I can see a thousand ways to do it better!

I felt Christmas in paradise was a very entertaining and enjoyable sequel to The 2021 movie Christmas Is Back Kelsey grammer Elizabeth Hurley were great .

The cinematography was very good Philippe Martinez and Mick Davis have done a great job with these movie's and they have a good track record

The movie is fun for the whole family just as well as the first movie

The film uses its budget really well and it's a very nice feel good movie

There's warm moments too and it has a nice pace

It feels like the Christmas Family are becoming a nice stable of the festive season and I would like to see a 3rd movie be made.

I'm surprised at all the bad reviews for this movie. I have to believe that NONE of them have even watched the first film, "Father Christmas Is Back", or they would have a better appreciation for the characters and the dynamics of their relationships. Talking about the actresses' age in relation to Kelsey Grammar's is irrelevant and nit-picky. Movies have always featured stars that are close in age playing parents and adult children.

The first movie was full of laughs, at the sisters and the situations. This one has a lot more drama in it, and a bit of humor. We enjoyed this one, even though it has a slow start. If you've seen the first one, give this one a chance. Just don't expect a raging comedy. Expect more sentimentality, and you won't be disappointed. P. S. The locations are gorgeous!
