Holidate's self-aware approach to rom-com formula is refreshing, but it's offset by a questionable premise and unnecessarily vulgar jokes.

The best thing that "Holidate" has going for it is that Roberts and Bracey do have great chemistry, but they just don't have a story or a script that can do it justice. October 30, 2020 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

Like so much of Netflix's quantity over quality output, Holidate is broad, unsubtle, and seemingly designed to be half-watched, phone in hand. Yet within that framework, it finds a unique comedic spark that keeps it zipping along. October 28, 2020 | Rating: B- | Full Review…

They weather all these things with a panache that makes you warm to them, for it almost compensates for the script's utter predictability. October 28, 2020 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

What started as a clever storyline quickly turned into an onscreen groundhog day-situation. The characters became monotonous and somewhat dull. November 22, 2020 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

This is not the wittiest or funniest rom-com you'll ever see, but there is something about it that keeps things in the watchable zone throughout. November 17, 2020 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

Holidate fails at being a good rom-com. The film is incredibly messy and it was indeed a struggle to sit through. November 13, 2020 | Full Review…

For all there is to criticize, Holidate does surprise us by presenting a relationship with an age gap in a positive way. November 13, 2020 | Rating: D | Full Review…

The film tries too hard to be a parody of romantic comedies. Maybe that was the general idea initially but the director seemingly lost touch with it as the film progressed. November 10, 2020 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…
