Surprises are in short supply here, but Tinnell's film is more concerned with cultivating a general, slightly tipsy air of good feeling. In this it largely succeeds...

Tinnell gets terrific performances up and down the cast: from the talented up-and-coming youngsters like Gisondo to veteran character actors like Joe Pantoliano, Paul Ben-Victor and Lynn Cohen.

As far as Christmas romance movies go, Feast of the Seven Fishes is quite watchable, funny in several spots and sweetly poignant in others.

Rated: 3/4

Under the Radar

A nostalgic, Christmastime movie that warms the audience the more it lets its believable cast of characters bounce off one another.

The movie ‘Feast of The Seven Fishes' takes me on a nostalgic journey back to Christmases past. As an Italian American, I find a deep connection with the characters, whose experiences resonate with those of my own friends and family. Each scene, especially those showcasing the visually stunning and nostalgic food, acts as a portal to a simpler time, offering a vivid snapshot of our Italian American heritage. Christmas Eve is for many of us is the craziest night of the year, and the night I look forward to more than any other on the calendar year. This film embodies the storied history of the food, but also the Italian spirit of generosity, highlighting our culture's inherent inclusiveness and warmth towards others. Since its release, it has been a source of inspiration for my family, especially when we needed it most. It has the power to envelop you in the holiday spirit. I wholeheartedly recommend this wonderful film as an instant classic, one that not only entertains but also inspires you to embrace the holiday season with an Italian touch!

Similar to other immigrant/2nd Generation themed movies like My Big Fat Greek Wedding, but not quite as good. It's light hearted entertainment in a smart way. I could think of worse ways to pass the time.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

This film is super witty, but not in a corny way. The writing is very well-crafted, and I was pleasantly surprised by how engaging the story turned out to be. The dialogue was sharp and clever. I thoroughly enjoyed the film from beginning to end.
