Boxing Day

How can I describe this.

It's like watching a very long episode of Eastenders And I hate Eastenders.

The main character man has no charisma and it would make it almost impossible that two stunning women would fight over him.

Then goes all the cliche and a predictable ending.

Kudos to this writer/actor on making a romantic Xmas movie because it's never easy balancing without over doing one. Writer had good intentions but missed the mark; as if someone just did a mediocre editing job! But looking forward to more polished future projects from this writer!

A good heart warming christmas movie! I recommend it to everyone who likes Christmas movies. The actors are all good! I went to see it twice because I really liked it. Don't listen to the negative reviews, go and make your own opinion. This film is worth watching.

As a UK Xmas RomCom Movie, I really wanted to enjoyed this movie, unfortunately I didn't.

It didn't feel festive, the characters made a lot of strange decisions which took me out of the moment and a lot of the jokes were off. I understood and appreciated what they were going for with a lot of them but many of them felt forced. This isn't due to the culture either as I completely relate to the likes of Blue Story and Kidulthood despite many wider audiences feeling that they sometimes appear 'over acted'.

Most of the romantic couples were lacking chemistry and there were some kid fight scenes which I genuinely couldn't tell if they were meant to come across as real or fake.

There were some good things about it though. At its heart it's a story about family. Notably breaking away from the pains and anchors caused by your immediate family when creating your own path. It also shines a light on a different type of UK Xmas celebrations and some of the challenges and stereotypes that certain groups have to fight within their own culture.

A good idea but poor execution. Ultimately it didn't feel like it was worth a trip to the cinema to see it.

I was expecting a Christmas movie of sorts, a RomCom even, but sadly this wasn't funny and the romance was lacking too. I didn't know what to make of it really, a black British movie with a couple of token white people, ok, it makes a change but it didn't make it good. It was a bit of a fashion show and music video but I didn't actually know any of the cast, (apart from the 2 )who were mainly mediocre to bad actors. The story is full of cliches about successful people , a love triangle and a dysfunctional British-Caribbean family who all come together just before Christmas, I don't think they even made it to Boxing Day though !?, At least they didn't go all out and have proper snow in London, because that usually spoils Britflicks for me. There were some good night scenes of London but they didn't actually make the most of the location. Too slow and too long, with a predictable conclusion. Just not my cup of tea.
