    Comedy of extremes

    This movie relies heavily on exaggerated extremes for humor. Alex is a rigid realist with no room for video games or Santa Clause. Her father is worse, if that's possible. He has never heard of tact. In fact he seems bound and determined to offend Peter and his family from the start. Meanwhile Peter's father is actually Santa Claus.

    Much of the movie is the Claus family's frivolity vs the Spencers' judgmentalism. It makes for a lot of fun situations. Throw in efforts to hide the secret. I wish Alex's dad wasn't SO mean. I find it hard to laugh when I want to throw something sharp and lethal at one of the characters.

    In this type of movie, acting is hard to judge. George Wendt and Shelley Long play their parts well even when some silliness is required. Kassia Warshawski has moments, good and bad, but mostly good. Lucas Bryant has some awful moments, especially when he gets nervously excited.

    Don't go by my rating. Alex's dad ruined it for me and this type of humor isn't my favorite.

    A mostly goofy holiday film, forgettable for families

    "Merry In-Laws" is a TV film made in Canada for the 2012 Christmas season. It's a fantasy and comedy romance that's mostly goofy while taking pokes at science. The plot isn't original - the son of Santa Claus, Peter, is in the real world and plans to get married. Alex and her parents need to meet his parents.

    Oh, yes. Alex is a single mom who has a cute little boy - another established trait for many of these holiday films. But this film is a little fuzzy on her son's father. Her dad, Steven (played by Greg Lawson), is a scientist and mentions something about her attending a Stephen Hawking program when she was just 18 - against his wishes, where she apparently became pregnant.

    There's very little plot and not much acting in this fantasy fiasco. Lucas Bryant, who pays Peter, spends much of his screen time tongue-tied and making goofy faces. George Wendt and Shelley Long as Mr. and Claus are mostly silly. Alex's mom, Joyce (played by Barb Mitchell), is a frustrated psychologist married to the science airhead Steven. Steven and Joyce too are silly in much of their roles.

    One could tell this movie wasn't intended for family viewing right away. Peter and Alex are living and sleeping together, with her son in her home, even before they are engaged. This film is mostly a goofy hodgepodge with nothing to recommend it.

    Enjoyably screwball

    This was cute, funny, and a nice romance. It was interesting to see Lucas Bryant in a more light=hearted role. Lately he has been playing the sullen, strong, silent type. Shelly Long was way over the top in my opinion, but I couldn't help laughing. Also there were a few truly badly behaved, even hateful characters in this one which added some tension to the comedy.

    A lot of fun.

    I hadn't seen this one before but when I saw it had two Cheers stars back together I knew I had to give it a watch. I'm glad I did as it was a lot of fun.

    Diane and Norm reunite...sort of

    The main draw of this TV movie is really the fact that 'Cheers' stars Shelley Long and George Wendt reunite in it.

    But actually this is worth watching without that detail, because a decent story is being told. Yes, it's a little predictable, and it's certainly more than a little cheesy, but it's well meaning, and hey- it's a Christmas film.

    I enjoyed this far more than I thought I would, and that's because of the performances that were given by the actors, who try their best to rise above the sentiment that can sometimes clog films like this.

    If you're in need of a 'Cheers' reunion, this could be the place to go.

      In a scene near midway through the film, there is an outdoor high shot of a SUV leaving a workplace, the shadows of the camera operator, sound person, and possibly unit director are in the foreground on a straw-like, snowy hillside.
