"I've watched a lot (and I mean a LOT) of this type of movie, but this is easily the worst. The story line is not believable, the characters are caricatures of themselves, and it all just lacked cohesion and chemistry".

I totally agree with xeroxoul review here.

Furthermore there is something actually disturbing in the main character.

She, her fake eyelashes and her fake complaints at the hotel for the dinner with their parents are just unbearable.

You tell me a chef in the history of cinema who didn't even dirty her hands with any cooking. I guess just this one.

And what about her overall lack of professionalism?

This movie is a disgrace under any point of view.

I'm a specialist in Christmas TV movies.

Here just for a quick "How the hell is possible that this has a 6.8 rate?!".

Just the worst Christmas movie ever watched.

Just so wrong that I don't know where to start.

Awful plot, flat characters, wrong town, very bad dramaturgy is enough I think.

I read the previous reviews which left me kinda astonished.

Read the disapprovals about 1.the editing(concerned about the complexity of the script/plot) 2.the easy understandable ending (really?!).

Given the facts that the idea of complexity is quite personal and that a trial has two possible main endings, even if I don't see how one can dislike the last 10 minutes, I declare that this idea of the ending as the usual final term of judgment is often just appropriate in the ordinary american movies and to the endings that seem groundless or specious, created just to justify the whole film.

A movie is journey.

And this one was particularly precious because of the very elegance in which it filled the holes of the story.

I loved every minute of it.

Ending included.

And the acting, the story and the plot.

But above all the ending.

PS: How do you justify european cinema to Americans, who would never have those cockroaches scenes.
