I clicked on this without reading any synopsis or watching any trailers. I picked it based on seeing Eddie Murphy's pic with a Christmas background. Now, I must say that I enjoy watching Eddie Murphy doing the adult stuff but I really enjoy him doing the light hearted pg movie family movies as well . Tracey Ellis Ross was great as the wife. I thought that the acting from everyone was good. I expected it to be cheesy in the first few minutes of starting it. Candy Cane Lane threw a bit of adult humor, and I think it's a fair amount throughout the movie. All in all I found it very enjoyable and entertaining.

Let me say that I found the movie watchable. It was not a bad movie. It was your typical cheesy Holiday movie in my opinion. I don't understand all the low ratings. If you like B movies then this movie should be something you can watch. I saw someone wrote about the storyline being all over the place; but I don't feel it was. Even though the acting was mediocre , the cast was believable. I've seen way worse acting than what I witnessed watching this. I found the movie cute. Would I watch it again? No but it was good for what I needed. I wanted a feel good movie and it didn't disappoint me. I don't think it deserves a 1 star. 6 at best.
