Has enough in the way of sentiment and goofy situational predicaments to put it over as a serviceable family holiday attraction. Full Review |

This silly action comedy mixes brilliant production design -- it looks like a Norman Rockwell painting come to life -- and cloying sentimentality to no good effect. Full Review |

Even the weather seems tailored to the script's shifting needs. Full Review |

Cage looks cold most of the time, and has retractable stubble. The rest of the cast look like they're waiting for summer. Full Review |

Harmless and totally familiar, it's better than static and informercials, but that's about the sum of it. Full Review |

It's a minor holiday miracle that this homey comedy barely elicits even a chuckle. Full Review |

None of this is funny. Full Review |

The question is, can a trio of amiable goofballs take you through a movie that's, well, not so great? Full Review |
||
|
|
Considering that there isn't a single laugh in the whole picture, the term 'comedy' must be used loosely. Full Review |

0.5/4 |
In no circumstances, even under threat of torture, admit to anyone that you were suckered into seeing this, one of the worst movies of the year. Full Review |

0.5/4 |
It should be preserved by the Library of Congress, as an example of creative desperation. It plays like a documentary about a group of actors forced to perform in a screenplay that contains not one single laugh, or moment of wit, or flash of intelligence. Full Review |

Undoubtedly, this is a movie only a Scrooge could love. Full Review |
