      Jeff M Here we have yet another Christmas movie about truly horrendous people who magically turn their lives around just in time for the holidays. You know, when done right, movies like this can be quite effective, as in the Scrooge movie of your choice. The key to its success (or failure) is the belief that the person or people in question truly have an epiphany that makes the significance difference. In this case, everything feels rather phony and the change of spirit doesn't feel believable whatsoever but simply a screenwriter conceit. For some reason, everything feels rather insulting here because it's very materialistic - had the main characters not faced a great loss of revenue, there's no doubt in my mind they wouldn't have changed at all. Lots can be forgiven if the characters are relatable and believable, but these are once again basic cliches rather than three dimensional people. Everything about this screams bottom-level D-list production, and there is nothing here you haven't seen a million times before and a million times better. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/24 Full Review Audience Member This was the absolute best Christmas movie I have seen to this date. The beginning and the end of the movie are my favorite. As they are snobby rich people being forced to accommodate to those who are financially struggling, they don't find much joy in this. But as they go through the same thing, and end up in the shoes of those they invited to the first party, they learn what it truly means to be a part of Christmas, to give, and to love. There is a huge contrast in the way they are in the beginning than in the end. And the party they throw at the very end shows just that, how they developed and changed throughout the movie.
