Brian M A heartfelt journey that's well acted and directed, bringing us into the warm embrace of a loving if not dysfunctional family only to release us from it with the same care and delicacy. Cathartic and honest, and more importantly a fun time. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/25 Full Review Audience Member Good watch if you're in the mood for a breakup story. I like this film, and I thought it was pretty realistic, but I somehow didn't feel the deep pain. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/25 Full Review Max M Such well-written and lived-in characters, and perfectly cast - Isler is a standout in particular. As a Christmas movie aficionado, this makes a perfect, fresh addition to the canon. Very excited to see what Tracey does next! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/16/25 Full Review William C This is one of my favorite films!! I saw it the first time during Atlanta's Cobb Film Festival, close to Mr. Riggs original film/home base. I had a relationship breakup myself, days before Christmas '23 and this was the catharsis I needed. And an all-around great production! Genius concept/writing/direction by Nelson Tracey and a superb cast who worked magically together! I could watch this one over and over. The setting involves Christmas, and it focuses on a very real phenomena, a strange curiosity in itself, that a very high percentage of breakups occur around the holidays. But I don't think of it as a Christmas film. However I'm sure that it will go down as one of the top ten "relationship films" of all time. Technically, it's a psychodrama, and Tracey and the cast beautifully bring to life a story that pulls the viewer into the very real pain and stress surrounding such a scenario. Do not expect your typical fluffy feel-good mindless romantic comedy. What it does is a lean toward film realism that presents a real-life socially-emotionally torturous representation of a breakup, like the real thing. It's important to note that Tracey insisted on filming this in some secluded icy location in the middle of nowhere, in order to bring it to life. I can just hear film professors lecturing about this years from now. But then it leads us out of that torture and extreme awkwardness, step by step, to a place where everyone survives and life moves on. And instead of "Omg will they get back together?", we're left with the reality that every character Will grow, become more mature, and they will evolve. And that's life brothers and sisters. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/25 Full Review Sean H Breakup Season is a delightful new addition to the Christmas movie lineup. With deeper themes and a heartfelt story that takes a very real look at relationships, both romantic and familial, this isn’t your average Christmas movie, but one that will leave you thinking when you’re done and leave you with the need to revisit it every holiday with your loved ones. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/10/25 Full Review J. Brad W BREAKUP SEASON is a poignant exploration of the complexities and emotional turmoil inherent in ending relationships.
