Let's call it progress that "Happiest Season" suggests gay people are as entitled to mawkish, contrived holiday movies as straight people are. November 26, 2020 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review…

"Happiest Season" relies on set-ups and revelations that don't feel real, making this holiday present a mixed bag. Ho, ho, hum. November 26, 2020 | Rating: C+ | Full Review…

There's nothing wrong with easy-viewing comfort cinema - but there's a difference between lazily entertaining your audience and insulting their intelligence. November 26, 2020 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

The average holiday-themed romantic comedy is such a synthetic box of delights... "Happiest Season," a new comedy directed by Clea DuVall, is a clever, affecting, endearingly imperfect example. November 26, 2020 | Full Review…

In the end, Happiest Season is to holiday movies what the Pillsbury crescent roll is to holiday meals: comfortingly familiar, unsurprising and irrevocably commercial. November 28, 2020 | Full Review…

Dan Levy steals the show. Take the average best friend role in movies and they all look quite relative at some point, but Levy makes every scene with his Joe a true delight. November 27, 2020 | Rating: B | Full Review…

A structurally efficient Christmas film that's rarely genuinely joyful. Though Duvall presents each scene as a gift wrapped in beautiful, hopeful packages, inside each one is yet another pair of socks. November 27, 2020 | Rating: C | Full Review…
