What to Know

Critics Consensus

Holidate's self-aware approach to rom-com formula is refreshing, but it's offset by a questionable premise and unnecessarily vulgar jokes.

Every scene is drudgery, every joke is homework, and every plot point is hell. Go to Full Review

I wish the film had the guts to sit here longer, but, instead, it continues with the unnecessary chaos... Go to Full Review

Holidate falls in the bland no-man's land between being sharp enough to appeal to adults (à la Bridesmaids) and tame enough to watch with the whole family. Go to Full Review

With rom-coms, you’ve got the really great ones like The Proposal, and then you’ve got the ones that are fun to watch during the season. Go to Full Review

Holidate is a hilarious and heartfelt addition to the “holiday romcom” canon, carried commendably by Emma Roberts and Luke Bracey. Go to Full Review

Stephen C @bob25009 Dec 30 Funny in 01 hour and 43 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more thiago s @Thiagostone Dec 22 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more The Few T Nov 16 My girlfriend unfortunately was watching this mind numbingly MORONIC "movie". See more John N Nov 9 It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The jokes are funny, the story is original even thought a bit predictable, honestly I had a good time watching it, I would recommend it! See more Jesus B Sep 3 A very fun movie, exactly what a romcom should be. I've seen it twice so far and will watch it again soon. I think, speaking for myself at least, this is one of those movies I can watch once and again and never get bored of, just like 10 things I hate about you. I really dig the cast and not only the main characters, but side characters are very well portrayed as well. In overall, I recommend giving it a try if romcoms are your thing. Like I said, exactly what a romcom should be. See more Due F Aug 31 *Holidate* tells a familiar but charming story of two strangers agreeing to be each other’s holiday dates, developing a believable and smooth relationship. The film balances relatable conflicts and emotional growth, culminating in a heartfelt resolution. With natural acting, good chemistry, subtle humor, and fitting music, it offers an enjoyable and lighthearted romantic comedy experience.
