What an awkward movie, but it kept me hooked.

It’s the Christmas movie Krampus would be proud of. A real turkey! Not even John Cleese can raise a smile in this movie equivalent of a Brussel sprout.

A movie with John Cleese and Elizabeth Hurley should at least make me smile: it's bad and the jokes are very weird and outdated.

the secondhand embarrassment i felt while watching this......

Too much overly annoying, unnecessary drama that made me feel disappointed early on as almost everything could have been easily avoided. It could have been much better, at first, I quite enjoyed the characters being almost caricature-like, with the exception of Vicky, who was just despicable. One of the biggest dramas in the plot was also a nuisance: it's hard to believe that [spoiler] Peter, whose wife is a very precise, organizing maniac, couldn't even give credit to his wife's intelligence - like if that kind of person had an affair, she would leave a pregnancy test lying around in their own bathroom... and any case, _communication_ perhaps, instead of more unnecessary drama and a slap in the face hommage á dad? [/spoiler] All in all, much ado for nothing, felt uncomfortable during most of the movie, and that outweighs any positive in it.
