Oggi è sempre Natale

My kids had their cousins over for a Christmas movie night after Thanksgiving and all of them loved this movie! I won't give any spoilers away, but there are many GREAT things about this Christmas movie such as the set decorations, the kids acting ability are top notch, and the Christmas music is just beautiful! Sure the plot is a little like Groundhogs Day, but my kids never saw that movie, so who cares? That doesn't take away the fact that this is a fun and magical Christmas movie for anyone to enjoy who loves watching Christmas movies!

The fourth of these Groundhog Day Christmas based films that I have seen and by a little way the worst.

It was different to the others in that days were not exactly the same but the premise was and unlike the others, as each day began with the music playing the sighing and gradual boredom increased.

Right from the first thirty seconds of the first repeated day it took an unusual course and there was just too much in the film that was unnecessary, characters that served little purpose, the camera work and insertions of music were more irritating and there was not really any character that you were that interested in.

We made it to the end though to see what happened and there was nothing majorly awful about the film.

I've seen a lot of Christmas movies over the years and this one falls toward the bottom of the list. The actor who plays the lead character is one of the most annoying characters I've ever seen in any film. The rest of the cast is not much better. If you wanna watch a film about spending the day over and over again just skip this and go and watch groundHog day again.

The good point - nice intentions to give a different Christmas film. The bad thing - its chaos. Sure, a teenager, a moral lesson, sport shoes, the wedding of the brother of hero, his best friend, a dog, a robot, a guide about what must be do and the expected pink end. But all is so cheessy than nothing is real credible. But, sure, a nice try.
