Read More "This Christmas" was a very realistic movie and I enjoyed the fact that it was not all about good, positive things but the realities of life and the meaning of "family" during the Christmas season!! I recommend this movie to anyone who believes that family and Christmas are one in the same! Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More Up the middle & to the right 4 stars,not the most original script,BUT there was a twist in the way the characters interacted the Fathers & first son,the witty and sarcastic humor most families can relate, the actors were good .There is also the warm and fuzzy when you see how family sticks together although each one is experiencing personal probs,& some how events allow them to be worked out.Bad reviews based on originality lighten-up ,it's original in it's own way by way of character/family circumstances.I especially liked the disposal of the Escalade,& ass whipping the naked cheating hubby endured ,now thats original.

Being African American, you get tired of seeing the stereotypes portrayed in the theaters. I thought this was a genuine good, wholesome story about a family that we can all relate too directly or indirectly. I don't know why it took so long to come out on DVD, but it's really a good story!! Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

It's the same stories retold all over again with a different cast. I mean, I don't even remember having seen anything in the movie that I hadn't even seen in other movies. While it was a decent movie for passing the time, I wasn't thrilled or touched during any part of it. Yes, Chris Brown was in it and he didn't do a bad job of acting, but his role wasn't important at all. Matter of fact, I don't think anybody's role was important. I really have to give this movie 2 stars, because I am not compelled to ever watch it again, but wasn't totally hating the fact that I saw it... Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No |
