Perfect. The critics don't understand why this movie is everything. Christmas? Parents? Children? Julia Roberts or Susan Sarandon? Look no further. This is a killer movie with every ingredient to make your heart melt. It's the kind of movie that mainstream audiences can fully embrace and critics will jump off of a cliff for because they are incapable of understanding its brilliance. Pearl Jam? Snow-blowing?! Blended families learning to understand and appreciate each other? Stepmom. THE PERFECT CHRISTMAS MOVIE. Thank you to all involved.

I love this movie. I went to see that movie in 1998 when I was in the third grade in elementary school. It is one of my favourite movies since I was 9 years old.
