Angry Angel

I was made to watch this movie against my will when family picked a random "Christmas movie"

But I like Brenda Song, and it hooked me quickly. Predictable story but cute and fun.

The movie opens with an obnoxious young Asian woman on a plane giving the flight attendant a hard time and drinking to excess. She turns to the camera and explains that the plane is about to crash, but she doesn't care because she is already dead. She is an Angel who did not lead quite a good enough life to cruise into heaven with a free ticket. She has to accumulate enough points by doing good deeds on earth to earn her way in. The problem with this one is, her good deed points are constantly being taken away by her "bad" deeds. She has an app on her phone to keep track of her standing. Yep. this one is a little bit different.

It is a rare entry in the Christmas movie sweepstakes: It is hilarious and heartfelt. Not just amusing. Really Funny. Written by Will Gluck, a writer with a strong resume, I suspect that this was meant for theatrical release. This is no mere Hallmark, folks. Great performances all around and great casting. Kudos for starring an Asian American woman as the angel form of the earthly white girl. An original choice. She was obviously chosen because she was the best actress for the part. Jason Biggs plays himself (!). He's really an angel too. Yes, It is quirky. Did I say that? The love interest is not a fictionally handsome male-model type, but a kind of schlubby but appealing everyman type guy. Again, Kudos. It does not play out like you would expect of a regular Hallmark type movie so it keeps you guessing. It does have a good message and moral like all good Christmas movies should, and plays out in a very satisfying way. I will be watching this one again next year. It is rare that I can say that about a Hallmark entry.

A very easy comedy, nice for old cliches , humor, Elizabeth Bowen,Ricky Mabe and, maybe, Jason Biggs ( in memory of previous roles ).

A young woman looking for her place in Paradise. And the not surprising return to Earth for fix some things. A ball of romance and soft commedy , angels and points, good facts and a life in Paradise more by Muslim inspiration.

And, sure, Brenda Song giving to her miss Pyke few nice traits .

I love this movie and so does everyone I know who's watched it to the haters on this thread, unbelievable, open your minds! I think they did a fabulous job and how they are so connected is amazing with out giving anything away! The whole concept is just perfect. Wonderful movie, it's well written, witty funny, and a tear jerker!

This is a funny movie. It's sort of like "Bad Santa" meets "My Best Friend's Wedding," with a little bit of Dwayne Johnson's "Tooth Fairy" and Kirstie Alley's "Toothless."
