O Natal Foi Cancelado

Story wasn't terrible but the lead actress had such a truly horrible personality that it ruined the rest of the movie. She was like photocopy of Zooey Deschanel: none of the adorableness or charm. Rest of the characters were the just right of attractive cheesiness that I love in holiday movies.

I don't mind a low-budget try-hard tacky Christmas film here and there. They make for nice background trashy entertainment. But when one normalises a coldly unempathic bereaved 58yr old seducing a 20something friend of his daughter, and his daughter is made out to be the one with the problem, its messages aren't exactly on a par with 'Its a Wonderful Life'.

The humour is of the cringey sarcastic reactions ilk, with ill-judged music to suggest things are supposed to be funny. The whole thing is such a jarring misfire I'm amazed anyone thought "yeah let's make this!"

People who spend their time complaining about Christmas movies are hysterically funny. Christmas movies are by there nature are fillers nothing more. Mindless fillers. Quit analyzing them for something other than that.

Absolutely nothing made me warm to any character in this film and the acting was flat. The story was lazily written and the premise was creepy. It MAY have gotten better in the end but I couldn't make it that far. Sucks because I love Hayley and. Janel but they both seemed to be relying on their past characters from other shows to get through this.

That was honestly the worst Christmas movie I've ever watched (and trust me, I have watched tons of them).

The so-called "moral of the story" is pathetic, as well as the ending.

This was frustrating to watch. I would not recommend this movie to anyone who has taste or moral values.

It's a shame I could not rate it with 0 star.
