Four Cousins and a Christmas

What I liked about the movie was the overwhelming feeling of joy and dynamics between the characters. The fact that so many characters are given the spotlight to have their individual moments helps to show the overwhelming connection that ties the whole family together and make the message of the film stronger. I think others should watch because it has a message that is resonant with everyone, which is no matter who the people in our lives are, whether it be family members, or even unrelated friends, the idea of getting together and realizing the magical feelings of bonds and closeness is an extremely healthy and important value we should all cherish as humans. The production design of the movie was very well executed, with a more than luxurious house filled with all kinds christmas decorations which is further exemplified by the lighting, showing a more than cheerful and festive feeling film that succeeds in showing that Christmas spirit in all its glory. It's a perfectly harmless, and a very cute and nice film about family, and how even burdens and generational trauma in the past can be put to rest for a day full of happiness and joy. I would rate this film 7/10.

I found Four Cousins and a Christmas a thoroughly enjoyable experience, with it tackling a period of grief shared by four cousins during Christmas time. By far this film's greatest strength comes from its performances. All four cousins are full of charisma and feel fully realized and bounce off each other in a playful and realistic manner. Particularly, I enjoyed Raffaela Capp's Jennifer as a character whose storyline not only carries the most emotional relevance but also is one many audiences will relate to in a huge way. I feel Four Cousins' narrative is portrayed in such a down to earth and relatable way and you really feel for Jennifer and her family at the end. I would definitely recommend Four Cousins and a Christmas for its fresh take on a family-driven narrative during Christmas.

Most of us can identify with at least one character in this story. Mine was with the youngest cousin. I went though the same thing 53 years ago, and it's disheartening that things have not changed much since then. My heart broke for her. My heart also broke for her sister who had a loss I can identify with. So, yah, why do I love this movie that breaks my heart so? Because, just as the last line of the film states: "I Love My Family".

So I have a question... WHAT. WAS. THAT????

Scenes getting cut earlier than normally, cringy acting, weird angle filming, bizarre transitions between scenes , lazy humor. Come on... what is this?

"Four Cousins and a Christmas" is a wonderfully heartfelt and relatable holiday film that completely surprised me. The performances are rich with warmth and authenticity, bringing each character to life in a unique way. Jennifer's emotional journey resonates deeply; her story feels both personal and profoundly real. The film beautifully explores themes of grief, forgiveness, and the power of family, weaving these elements together in a touching narrative. I particularly admired how it illustrates the idea that even in the midst of sadness, the support of family can lead to healing and hope. This film is a beautiful, underrated Christmas gem that truly deserves to be seen.
