Reviews
|
Chicago Tribune -
As light, fluffy, cockle-warming holiday entertainment, this thing is pretty sweet.
|
|
Christian Science Monitor -
There are a few amusing moments, helped by subdued performances from Affleck and Gandolfini, but this is no "Bad Santa" despite its obvious ambition to play similar holiday tricks.

|
ReelViews -
Can't decide whether it wants to be a black comedy, dumb farce, or sentimental sit-com.
|
|
The New York Times -
As you watch the comedy lurch along, the woozy, sinking sensation it produces suggests a movie slapped together after the consumption of far too many gallons of that spiked eggnog.

|
Dallas Observer -
Wrenches paltry giggles and cheap warmth from a screenplay that makes "Son in Law" seem like Sam Shepard. But wretched Affleck is the real liability.
