Ton Noël ou le mien 2

I don't get the bad reviews. It's a Christmas movie...what the heck do people expect??? Its like Hallmark movie but British, with great acting, and with no fake snow. If you don't want a formulaic movie, stay away from almost ever Christmas movie ever made including this one. But, if by chance, you want a good Christmas movie please give it a shot. But make sure you watch the first movie before this one.

The reason I watch Christmas movies is for the warm fuzzies and to "learn" the true meaning of Christmas again. This fits the bill. It also has enough laughs to keep you entertained until the end. Not the best movie ever made, but well worth your time and hopefully a smile at the end.

Merry Christmas.

Despite the mixed reviews for the first 'Your Place or Mine' film, I actually quite enjoyed it. A little corny, and a little cliché at times, but that's what Christmas films are for. I also managed to find the first one funny and emotional at times.

This sequel, however, has ruined any fondness of the first film that I previously had.

The likeable female lead character, Hayley, from the first film becomes insufferable in this film, boiled down to a naïve character who does nothing but complain throughout the film, jumping to conclusions and offering not much else.

Asa Butterfield's character doesn't offer much else, although a weak script and lack of real storyline may be at fault here.

Character arcs from the first film, like the one with James' father, are also completely negated in this film.

The family of Hayley also come across as exceptionally ungrateful in this film, and frankly rude. A likeable family and the "hero's" of the first film become the villains of this film, with Daniel May's character leading the charge as possibly one of the most unlikeable character's I've had on my screen this year.

Not a sequel we needed, I'd urge anyone who watched and enjoyed the first film to not bother watching this one.

Ok where do I start with this dull sequel to a movie which is lacking any decent story telling in the process?

Right the two main love characters have zero chemistry in terms of connection. They both looked bored in terms of the awful dialogue they are given but there is just no spark between them for the whole movie length.

The other side characters are just wasted in terms of development.

It was an lacksture affair with a script from the 1970's comedy genre of that time.

Personally I am at a lost why they made a sequel as the original wasn't much to write home about in truth.

If your at a loose end watch something else on a Xmas movie list as this movie is just a pile of Donkey dung!

This is a real family Christmas film and has a comedy heart. It is formulaic but there are notable comedic performances by Daniel Mays and Jane Krakowski and the locations are fantastic. Having been to the Tyrolean region, the production team really captured the ethos of the place and it felt authentic. Asa Butterfield's performance however is slightly lacking and overshadowed, I found the pacing of the film to be odd too. It is set over 2 days predominately and yet so much happens. It would have benefitted from being a week for example to show more realistic development. It is up there with other ski themed films like chalet girl so if you're reminiscing of the alps it may be the film for you.

Good, solid, warm, family Christmas entertainment. Enjoyed the first one, saw they made a sequel and enjoyed it just as much.

Asa Butterfield, Cora Kirk and Daniel Mays were excellent.

Read some of the one star reviews which is a bit of a shame because it is just a bit of Christmas fun which doesn't take itself too seriously. I see many people calling it formulaic but let's be honest, we all (or many of us) like the standard RomCom formula.

Highly recommend if you fancy a new Christmas film. Ok, it's not Home Alone or the Griswalds but it's pretty decent, great locations and good solid fun. Here's to a third installment.
