Dave P The storyline works and I found it quite funny. I already recommended it to my daughter. Danny Glover helps transform one of the bad guys into the good person he likely would have become without having been around a bad sister. So it comes with that positive. If you are looking for a movie to send you a pocitive vibe, this could be it Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/13/24 Full Review Jeff M I've set a goal to watch and review 25 holiday movies/specials between now and January 1. And oi vey, things are off to a rough start. I'm praying to baby Jesus that this is the worst thing I will have to sit through for the next six weeks. Imagine HOME ALONE in a public school rather than a $400,000 Chicago suburb dwelling, and that's basically all you need to know. I'm not a HOME ALONE fan, but this sad knock-off makes me want to re-think my feelings. If someone told me this had been written by a 5th grader, I'd totally believe it. It takes the most banal cliches from the most banal family movies we've seen a thousand times, and the result is one TOTALLY banal movie. Nothing works here. And lucky me, I was drifting asleep during the last half hour so had to re-watch a third of this thing again just to be fair. Glover lends an air of dignity to any movie in which he participates - that's just his aura. And any fleeting moments that work belong to him. But it's sad to see him reduced to sub-sitcom material like this. In a way I resent movies like this, because the filmmakers feel they have to pander to children. I think today's kids are a lot more clever than we give them credit for, and they deserve more challenging material than this. Bah Humbug, indeed! Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/24 Full Review Keshon L kids would really love it but i was just pretty much bored and does is the first movie were i was like dear lord can does end,but this movie is 3/10 not good with a boring story,boring acting,and pretty annoying at the same time. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/14/22 Full Review Audience Member What a awesome movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Christmas Break in is a cheesy home alone rip off. Before Netflix and streaming this is what made for TV movies used to be like. With streaming movies being up so high quality now why even bother with films like this? It’s awful. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/29/20 Full Review Audience Member Kid friendly. White nuclear family, strong female lead. This movie is wholesome.
