Christmas with the Kranks

A must watch during the Christmas season

I laugh so hard at this & I will enjoy it and be happy with it

I was so shocked this year watching this movie to find out my husband had never seen it! He was surprised by how much he enjoyed the movie. It is such a classic at this point and will forever be one of holiday season must watch.

This movie has been around for ablong tine but we just got around to watching it. Lots of laughs. Thanks to Amazon for the Audio Descriptive Track too so that some here could enjoy the movie as well.

This movie is so funny. Makes me laugh every year. Based on John Grisham’s book Skipping Christmas. Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis are hysterical.

Hunker down with your family and get ready to enjoy a holiday classic.

Gets boring

In the 1st 15 minutes, I wanted to go hide but Dan Akroyd showed up and then I knew it was going to get better. And, it did. Once the hijinks became sufficiently absurd, it was more enjoyable. And, it is an absurd plot. The carolers made the movie for me.

DVD Comes in standard plastic DVD case. There are no special features on this version. Quick Synopsis For the first time, Luther (Tim Allen) and Nora’s (Jamie Lee Curtis) daughter, Blair (Julie Gonzalo) was not going to be spending Christmas with the family. Luther decides to book an expensive cruise for Christmas; the only catch was he and his wife had to commit to a total boycott of the holiday season. This really disturbed the seemingly Christmas obsessed community and some neighbors took it a lot harder than others. After nearly making through the holiday, of course Blair calls on Christmas eve and decides to surprise her parents by flying in. Will the Kranks be able to pull off a miracle Christmas for Blair? Will the neighbors forgive the Kranks for their lack of holiday enthusiasm? I guess you’ll have to watch and see = ) Opinion I think this is one of those movies where a lot of people don’t appreciate it the first time they watch it. I know I didn’t love this movie when I first seen it. I happened to catch it on TV the following year and I couldn’t change the channel. I have watched this movie several times now and I grow fonder of it every time. Yes, it’s a goofy / silly / and over-the-top Christmas movie but it’s also cleaver and meaningful at its core. Jamie Lee Curtis and Tim Allen are the perfect duo and they really make this movie shine. Also, I am not a big Dan Aykroyd fan but I loved him in this movie. Thanks for reading my review. I hope this is helpful to you.

Fun movie with moral statement.
