Christmas Down Under

Couldn't understand half the words the actor were saying because the background noise and music was very loud and distracting. Dialog might have been funny if i could have heard it.

Look, there is no real storyline in this movie. Its just a girfriend trying to find a guy in Australia. It plays like one really long scene. That's it. Just skip past the first 25 minutes, its totally awful and pointless set-up. But starting around minute 27, I thought the movie became an enjoyable watch because the characters were funny with their gag humor and I liked the all Australia setting/actor twist. I also turned the movie into a scavenger hunt game. Here are some suggestions to keep your interest: (1) Try to count how many times Justine Kacir slips back into her Australian accent; (2) Look up the New Zealand joke references; (3) Watch the scene background/settings for future vacation stop ideas; (4) consider how different Australian Christmas decorations/settings are from US ones; (5) See how many differences you can find between words Americans and Australians use to name something (like "thong") and (6) daydream about how fun it would be to re-create Ellie Parker's indirect flight around the world to get to Australia. Where would you go? There are others, but I don't want to spoil the movie.

This was so stupid. The plot could have been ok but it was so poorly executed. It was like watching a sophomoric comedy movie, right down to the sound effects. They were so wierd. Clown car honks and slide whistles, squeeks and wonks. Pretty sure I heard a fart sound. There were even fast motion scenes ie Benny Hill. I can't believe ION put this in a prime time slot. Don't waste your time. There is nothing good about this movie.

Wow, there aren't even the words to describe how bad this movie is. Don't waste your time. A bad script and even worse acting are just the beginning of this film's troubles. What a way to ruin the holiday spirit. The money it took to make it should have been donated to charity instead.

I though I might like this in a dark horse kind of way. The Australia angle got my attention. I understand this was a farce and a romp but the acting was so over the top, I can't even believe these people were professionals. But a few have some pretty respectable credentials. Maybe the direction. The two leads were OK. Disappointed.
