TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch Dec 5 The Night My Dad Saved Christmas 2 is a frustrating foreign holiday film that fails in nearly every aspect. While the subtitles are understandable, the screenplay feels childish and corny, with forced jokes and awkward dialogue that rarely land. The story is thin and nonsensical, featuring random moments like a dance with Santa and the elves that add confusion rather than charm. The acting suffers under poor direction—the young boy shows potential but is overacted, and the father’s role includes clumsy comedic moments that fall flat, such as an awkward workplace gag. Character development and chemistry are nearly nonexistent, leaving the audience disconnected from the plot. Visually, the film is bland, with uninspired sets and costumes that fail to evoke a festive mood. Attempts at humor and whimsy are chaotic and unfunny, making it feel juvenile and poorly executed. Overall, it is unwatchable, and viewers would be better off skipping it entirely. See more Read all reviews
