Mistletoe Mixup

This is a hysterical movie! The brothers fighting is so realistic! Do you even have boys? I love this movie! The Laurence family is a family like mine...messy and loud! I love their "grandmother/mom" She is a classic!

The movie is mostly Lawrence brothers antics with both of them courting Holly, ineptly. That's all you need to know.

I think the three main actors probably had fun. They connect on screen.

There are some funny gags and some dumb ones and I'm not sure which was which. There is also a karaoke bit with the three brothers combining for O Holy Night. Most of it is legit, but it degenerates at the end like most of the things the brothers do.

I think it's crazy that Holly didn't run screaming after the first lunch with the family. Did you notice they all sat and argued for a good while with not one of them touching their sandwich?

Unfair to write I do not like it.

But it seems a good opportunity for Donna Lawrence and her sons to perform together in pretty nice rom com about a young woman , too passionated by her job, her wish near Christmas and the expression of this gesture.

Easy to be seduced by house, humor, rivalry between brothers and the predactibility.

The end is so unrealistic - in fact, forced, than the silence is good option- but the contribution of eccentric grandmother saves a lot from a supperficial, chialdish story.

In short, just nice and few applauses, not only polite, for correct work of Lawrence family.

We weren't expecting to even watch (just on for background), but it was actually entertaining and very clean with wholesome family values. Rare in movies these days. No over-the-top acting or "jumping into bed" the first night stuff.

As far as "Hallmark " Christmas movies go, this one is a keeper. Definitely not going to win an academy award, but it's fun! The plot is slightly different than all the rest. Still has the romantic happy ending,as per the usual. I laughed several times. I give it thumbs up.
