Christmas Staycation

This Chrismtas Staycation film is a comedic computer screen film made on Zoom in December 2020! It takes place during the pandemic and has a great story. There's ANOTHER Christmas Staycation that came out this year that is NOT THIS! That is another movie that came out in 2015 and took this title for 2021. If you're looking for the original Christmas Staycation, this one is it! And it's worth the watch!!! Super original and filled with hard laughs and heart!

When it comes to Computer Screen Films, the one genre that rules them all and that's Horror. So I was surprised to see there's also a Chrismtas comedy out there that makes you actially LOL. Christmas Staycation is short, sweet, and gets you out of the pandemic funk if you're still in it. I really loved the 3 siblings and the original storylines they had to deal with. The Zoom Santa "My Dad is dead" scene made me lose my s***! Amd there's plenty more of funny scenes afterward. The one drawback is the visual quality isn't top notch, but again, it's a computer screen film, so just enjoy the ride! And there's a lot to enjoy!

This is not the Christmas Staycation on Amazon Prime. This is the original that came out in 2020 and has a much better story!!! Please don't confuse them. This one was filmed all over zoom and is about a family that physicallly can't be together. The one on Amazon Prime is a "A Dog For Christmas" (2015) that they renamed with this title. If you're going to review that movie, look up a "A Dog for Christmas" (2015). This movie, "Christmas Staycation" (2020) is not on Prime, but is on DVD and streaming on Hoopla and Vimeo.

Christmas Staycation is surprisingly glorious! There's a touching family story with so much humor for modern times. It's empathetic to everyone who's been using Zoom for this entire pandemic and feels like The Office in many ways. Seeing if you worked in an office, you get The Office. Every character brings something quirky, distinct, and charming. The writing, acting, and pace is so well done that you'll forget you're watching a computer screen film. Give it a shot and you will find yourself laughing incessantly.

Defintiey worth a quick watch! Very much surprised at how much I enjoyed this film. The storylines, characters, and acting are solid and the jokes are original and UPROARIOS!!! The entire movie is over Zoom, but you can tell the cast and crew had A LOT OF FUN making this! The movie derides it's own platform and this time our lives and the results are heartwarming and hilarious!
