Of the two lead characters, one loves any and every holiday, and the other pretty much hates them. To be fair, after years of being unlucky during the holidays, there’s a (sort of) valid reason. Bottomline: Yes, you’ll want to watch this new movie.

Rated: 4/5

Swarens cycles through a year's worth of holidays, but downplays the high concept, instead focusing on a genial hangout vibe.

. These are characters that many women will be able to relate to, though, I suspect, that men will also enjoy this film. A good story is a good story, and transcends things like gender or sexual orientation.

Fresh Sapphic film! The Holiday Club has relatable characters that make you feel part of the story very easily. The build up of the main charcaters' relationship is the hook that gets you hung up, and the chemistry between them makes the 1 hour and 30 minutes of the film go by in a blink. Definitely entertaining!

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

This movie is so sweet and relatable if you're a sapphic woman - Alexandra and Mak are delightful to watch.

This movie is terrible. Incredibly slow, not believable at all. Who let's a delivery person/stranger into their home to hang? Lack of character development. Acting was meh. I could barely get through it.

The movie was so slow. I struggled to stay engaged and caught myself thinking I should just turn it off. I liked the storyline but that was about all I liked.

Loved it!! It’s so sweet and the story is so relatable. I smiled through most of the movie, eager to see what would happen next. The actresses are excellent, the chemistry is perfect and the tension palpable. Alexandra Swarens (who wrote, directed and starred!) and Mak Shealy delivered such an enjoyable moment !
