The Christmas Letter

OMG!! Where does one even begin with this monstrosity for an excuse for a Christmas movie? How in what world can it happen that when you have one of the greatest comedic actors of all time, Chevy Chase aka Norm De Plume, cast in your movie and the result ends up being such a complete POS? Chevy is probably glad that he will never ever work with Director Tori Hunter & Writer Michael Cunnigham ever again. On a scale of 1 - 10 this stinker of a movie comes in at -100. (That is negative 100) Yes, it is that bad. I'm curious if one has to be on something in order to get even a single laugh from this movie because without being on anything it certainly did not make me crack a smile once let alone make me even come close to any attempt at a laugh. The script was so bad it barely even makes any sense. I felt bad for Chevy and Randy that they had to stick to the script and push through scenes that were so humorless that I'm sure they were constantly asking themselves if it (the pain) was over yet. Don't say I didn't warn you if you end up watching this absolute mess. Hopefully Chevy can redeem himself in the next movie. Please pass the gravy because this meal tastes like absolute garbage. 1 Star Only!!

I paid $4.99 to rent this disaster! It's the stupidest movie I've ever watched.. dumb writing, even worse acting. Chevy Chase should be embarrassed. What a waste of his time. Randy Quade just awful. I repeat the worst waste of my time ever. Never funny, not one laugh. Do not waste any money on this horrendous piece of junk. Who thought this was funny? Who could have put their name on this disaster? You are nuts if you rent this movie. A complete waste of your time and money. Please stay away from this. Awful, terrible movie. Bring a barf bag if you rent it. Stay away please. Never a funny moment.

The premise is somewhat interesting but that's the only redeeming value of this mess. The script is nonsensical, none of the characters are likeable and the attempts at humor fall painfully flat. Chevy Chase, Randy Quaid and Brian-Doyle Murray only have minor roles and are never in the same scene. They're apparently only on the marquee for marketing purposes. Quite frankly, they should be embarrassed. Don't be duped like I was. I spent $4.99 to rent which is $4.99 too much. Even free wouldn't be worth it. I didn't waste the full 90 minutes of my time because I bailed out early. It was too painful to watch.

OK lets start with the comedy eliment of this movie! Well frankly there is no comedy it has zero laughs from start to finish!

You have Randy Quaid who has more movie time than Chevy Chase does but even both of them look bored stiff trying to muster a laugh from the poor script they were given.

You have a British family who speak like they are in England back in 1888. British people do not speak like that what so ever but by then it was a case of who cares?

Unsure if this movie is a tax loss make because I cant believe that this script for the movie was passed off to be made by movie bosses?

Not much else to say accept give this Xmas turkey movie a big fat miss this Xmas holiday folks!

Saturday Night director Jason Reitman says Chevy Chase told him that he should be embarrassed of his SNL movie - Chevy should be embarrassed of this and all the other projects he has done over the past three years. This has to be the worse Christmas movie of all time.

Overall, the movie misses the mark, delivering a lackluster viewing experience that may leave you feeling disappointed, especially if you're looking for something fresh and engaging during the holiday season. It serves as a reminder that not all holiday films can capture the magic and warmth that the genre promises. The Christmas Letter gets one letter, an F for failure.
