I laughed. I cried. Just the kind of movie you want to enjoy with your family over the holiday.
Subtly pays homage to all of this genre's predecessors, while adding a new dimension through its intelligent story and wit. The acting was fabulous all around. Great editing. And very funny outtakes at the end - so keep watching those credits.
Jennifer Garner has such depth as an actor. She is powerful in her action roles and heartwarming in the family comedies she has starred in. She was a big reason I gravitated to this film in a very crowded offering of Christmas movies this year.
Ed Helms delivers a hilariously solid performance, and the kids were played by exceptionally strong actors. I'll likely watch this film again and again because it delivers exactly what you want a holiday film should - laughs, tears, and a thoughtful relatable story.
