Not What I Expected
15 December 2021
The ratings are all over the place for this film maybe its a love hate type of thing -- I actually rented this on cable with my wife thinking its was a comedy, its not a comedy but it has some funny moments but the drama side caught me for surprise. My wife loved it and that was all I could ask for. I am a big Chris Elliott Fan -- love everything he does, it was a different role for him but it worked and the family grew on me as well. It isn't the fastest moving film out there and not too much of XMAS glitz but it has a really good message if you pay attention to it. I give it a great effort for trying to be its own thing and not pump out the same man + girl falling in love type story on Lifetime. It was something I could actually watch and tell people at work what I did. Dog was cute too.
