Ratings and reviews

Unpredictable! I love it when a movie keeps me guessing about what will happen next. It is a good movie with a good cast. This movie is full of hearty laughs. It's nice to see the actors from almost 30 years ago when they weren't quite so famous yet. This movie is a great escape from todays' not so happy world!

Amazingly quotable! Easily the most underrated Christmas movie. EASILY! Lovely cast with great chemistry. Wildly fun (if predictable) storyline. Lots of laughs but even more heart!!! Amazing price. THANK YOU!!
