Joyeux Noël Grumpy Cat !

So this movie has somehow become a Christmas tradition in our house. Yes, the acting is weak, the plot is dumb, and the whole idea of a movie based on a meme is just ridiculous. But its actually not too bad.

Aubrey Plaza does a solid job of voicing Grumpy, and her cracks about Lifetime movies and constantly pointing out the inconsistencies and problems with the movie itself are great.

The subtle music jokes that will go over most people's heads are great. I mean, how can you not like a movie that references Cliff Burton from Metallica? or has an argument about the best singer in Van Halen, and it's between Sammy Hagar and Gary Cherone?! I mean, that gag is just brilliant.

All in all, it's not a fantastic flick, but it will amuse most people.
