Christmas...Again?!

Watched as a family.

Was slow to start. Some obvious similarities to Ground Hog Day and possibly some melodramatic moments but, it ended up being quite charming.

The family ended up really liking it. Even the teenagers.

Christmas Again had been added to the prestigious and very cut-throat list of family Christmas movies .

It's not a 5 Star. It predictable. But it's worth a revisit.

What do you get it you take a classic movie like the 1993 movie "Groundhog Day", spice it up with Christmas and add a pinch of Disney magic? Well, you get "Christmas Again". Yeah, that was essentially all that could be required to summarize this 2021 Christmas movie. But let's add a bit more, shall we?

Writer Doan La managed to put together a nice enough storyline for director Andy Fickman to make a movie from. However, the movie does borrow heavily from "Groundhog Day", and on that account then "Christmas Again" actually start to feel somewhat unoriginal, despite it being glaced up with a Christmas apparrel.

Sure, the storyline told in "Christmas Again" was fair enough and the movie was watchable, but "Christmas Again" had that particular vibe of a-movie-you-will-watch-once-and-probably-never-again feel to it. Hate to say so, but that is the sensation I was left with once the movie came to an end.

The acting performances in "Christmas Again" were fair. And Scarlett Estevez actually carried the movie quite well. I can't really claim that I was familiar with anyone on the cast list here, which is something I do enjoy in movies. The actors and actresses participating in the movie definitely did good jobs.

"Christmas Again" is not your average sappy romantic Christmas movie, so it was a nice break away from the archetypical Christmas cheese.

My rating of "Christmas Again" lands on a six out of ten stars, as it is an entertaining storyline. Just a shame that it was somewhat unoriginal.

Seriously, how can someone rate it 1/10? Is it really worst of the worst or you just don't know how to use scoring system?

We have seen some of these ideas again, but still this isn't bad movie for Christmas - I thing it deserve 5-6 and rates below 5 are unfair in my opinion.

Watch it, make your own opinion and ignore 1/10 because these ratings are dumb.

In Chicago, Rowena Clybourne (Scarlett Estevez) is a 12 year old with large expectations from her yearly Christmas family celebrations. None of it goes off as planned and she has a terrible time. She storms out and runs into Santa in front of her house. He gets her to wish for a Christmas do-over.

As a concept, I have no problems with a kiddie Groundhog Day Christmas. I'm sure that Scarlett Estevez is or will be a solid Disney TV star. They try out a lot of stories, but it runs out of steam pretty quickly. I like the bully story most of all but I don't like the resolution. There is too much and not enough. It needs a big overarching story. Groundhog Day has the love story to finish it off. This one struggles to find that story.

They really need to stop putting adult Thames inappropriate in a family kid movie and certain changes ..so I took away points and say was mostly good just not super or fully kid family friendly entertainment thanks try again Disney .
