Christmas...Again?!

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.

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.

There have been two other movies about being in a time loop on Christmas. So this movie falls short of being original.

Christmas morning is here, When 11 year old Rowena(Scarlett Estevez) has a mishap of a holiday, and wishes she could do it over, a mall santa grants her wish. When she gets stuck in the time loop, Rowena decides to milk it for what it's worth, but will she discover the true meaning of Christmas during that?

Scarlett Estevez starts out annoying. But she gets better has the movie goes on, but the problem here is too much of the movie was put on her to carry by herself. And that is where it got uninteresting, cause most of the other actors don't really grab you, there just kind of there. Even the two Home Alone movies Culkin didn't carry those films by himself. Some of the jokes don't quite land. Scarlett Estevez is a charming actress, and she does make this somewhat watchable, but other than that, the movie itself is just alright.

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 .

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.
