Christmas With the Campbells is like a weirdly creative holiday drink; you wouldn’t expect those ingredients to work together, but somehow, they do. Go to Full Review

It’s an entertaining effort, one that will certainly pass the time while you’re wrapping gifts or trimming the tree with the TV on. Maybe just make sure the kids are out of the room first. Go to Full Review

Although this holiday rom-com attempts something different by sprinkling some spice into the sugar-coated mixture, it all amounts to a lot of naughty talk and no action. Go to Full Review

Poorly written, overly optimistic and transparent in its manipulation of anyone watching. Justin Long and the remaining ensemble sleepwalk through a crass script, which puts gender roles back ten years. Go to Full Review
Andy Klein FilmWeek (LAist) 12/06/2022
A very by-the-numbers romantic comedy... you can predict everything that's gonna happen. Go to Full Review

Maybe Christmas fans will enjoy it for what it is, but overall it is an underwhelming attempt that falls short. Go to Full Review

Kenneth G 12/08/2022 Language was despicable. See more Jason W @Jfw1927 2d I have come to love this movie more and more. In fact, the more I watch it the more I love it. However, you have to understand the humor before you watch to appreciate. Vince Vaughn’s humor comes through in the dialogue, and it is full of Easter Eggs you can’t possibly pick up on in one viewing. Alex Moffat is genius as always in the film playin the "quarter zip" finance bro to a tee. It’s sweet to see George Wendt in his final film and Brittany Snow is great. Justin Long, who is a Vaughn regular, is great as always. The over the top and obvious innuendo humor is great. If you watch it thinking, "Wait, that’s so obvious," you miss the point. It’s supposed to be. Anyway, I love this movie. It’s a hidden gem that will only get better with age! Cheers and Merry Christmas! See more Colleen G @Minichic Dec 10 I understand that it’s intended to be a satire of the Hallmark Christmas Movie genre however its foul sexual jokes and sexual overtones make it unwatchable. It’s unrated but please don’t watch this with your children! See more Camilla W Dec 23 Don’t watch this with kids!!!! Lots of awkward sex humor. So if you like that you’ll love this show, just not my type of humor. Pretty weird and very predictable throughout. See more Meepo N 12/14/2024 The number of people too dumb to understand this is a parody of Hallmark holiday movies is mind numbing. See more Stephanie Q 11/24/2024 So I read other reviews that said this movie is a satire. Okay, fine. But it was like an extra terrestrial teamed up with AI to write the dialogue. It was strange and unfunny. The sexual talk was not meant to be sexy and it also wasn't funny so it just gave me the ick. See more Read all reviews
