There are useless digressions about a robber and a mystery man who seems to know everyone. The fact that Blair has a boyfriend who is a foreigner is supposed to be funny. One of the Kranks\u0027 neighbors develops a very serious health problem, a particularly manipulative and awkward plot device obviously inserted to get our sympathy and give Luther a growth experience.\r\n\r\nBut what makes this film genuinely toxic is its attempt to leverage all of its audiences\u0027 feelings about the best of Christmas while having no sense at all of what makes those feelings matter. Nora\u0027s only contact with her clergyman is contrived so that he sees her in her skimpy bathing suit. The film\u0027s phony attempt to make fun of the craziness, commercialism, and conformity of the holiday season is in fact just one more example, so fundamentally fake and superficial it makes tinsel look like sterling." } ] }</script> <link rel="dns-prefetch" href="//fonts.googleapis.com" /> <link rel="dns-prefetch" href="//fonts.gstatic.com" /> <link rel="dns-prefetch"

There are useless digressions about a robber and a mystery man who seems to know everyone. The fact that Blair has a boyfriend who is a foreigner is supposed to be funny. One of the Kranks' neighbors develops a very serious health problem, a particularly manipulative and awkward plot device obviously inserted to get our sympathy and give Luther a growth experience.</p> <p>But what makes this film genuinely toxic is its attempt to leverage all of its audiences' feelings about the best of Christmas while having no sense at all of what makes those feelings matter. Nora's only contact with her clergyman is contrived so that he sees her in her skimpy bathing suit. The film's phony attempt to make fun of the craziness, commercialism, and conformity of the holiday season is in fact just one more example, so fundamentally fake and superficial it makes tinsel look like sterling.</p> </div> <button class="reveal__trigger link link--cta btn--reset" data-target="reveal-1f4462a2-3f14-42f6-8470-76bf7d446eaf">Show more</button> </div> </div> </div> <div class="squiggle--bottom review-view-box review-view-box--formatted"> <h2 id="family-talk">Talk to Your Kids About ...</h2> <div id="reveal-a6396649-3e47-4fa4-afd2-d7c5011c10b0" class="reveal" data-more="Show more" data-less="Show less"> <div class="reveal__content collapse"> <ul> <li><p>Families can talk about what is important about Christmas or other holidays and which traditions have the most meaning to them.
