It's a light, fluffy holiday movie that makes you happy, which is exactly what you want when watching this kind of film.

Occasionally amateurish but sweet-natured and thoroughly enjoyable.

Rated: C+

The material eventually falls apart, caught between the mechanics of an out-of-the-closet farce and a tender story of personal and familial acceptance. The festivities kick off with a hearty ho-ho-ho. They end with a disconcerting no-no-no.

Rated: C-

a kindhearted and very low impact coming out tale with only the slightest bit of angst getting in the way of the feel good vibe

Rated: 2/5

It's old news that American queer cinema is splintered between movies with serious artistic and intellectual aspirations and those which, like the bulk of contemporary pop culture, are aggressively mediocre.

pretty good, unfortunately it can turn people away with the quality of the video and the awkward beginning. I actually almost watched a few years ago but clicked off because it was so bad, but I'm definitely glad i revisited it

I absolutely loved this movie. It helped me a lot to see positive side of being gay. There was so many movies based on gays but they all died of AIDs in the end this was the first movie to show me love and romance. Also a very beautiful coming out story. It gave me the courage to come out as well. My stories not as sweat lol but still had a lot of support. I want a sequel!! I watch this movie every December now haha!!!

-The dad was insufferable -The mam’s laugh was intolerable -Their “I told you so” he-lost-the-bet reaction to the son coming out took about eight Christmases off my life

Doesn't need to be taken too seriously to enjoy it and to reap the positive messaging. It's mostly done comically. The few serious situations are not overwhelming. It's just a fun movie to watch and it's a must for me every year during the week or day of Christmas.
