How sad it is, when a beauty of a book (Skipping Christmas) by an acclaimed author (John Grisham) is turned into a mess of a movie, it's only purpose being to rob hard-working people of their well-earned money. In watching this, I realized only one thing: Jamie Lee Curtis is getting old. She has gray hair. When did this happen?! This is a great example of a movie straining too hard to be funny. I felt like the Botox scene dragged on too long, and it was in the trailer so if you've seen the trailer you've seen basically that whole scene. Just don't waste your time or money, it's not worth it at all! If you're looking for a good Christmas movie for your family, try A Christmas Carol, A Christmas Story, (catch it anytime of the day you like Christmas day) or It's a Wonderful Life. And remember: It will be a Merry Christmas just as long as you don't spend it with the Kranks! Happy Holidays. Please rate if this review was helpful to you! Thanks!!
