Parents for Christmas

Of course I had never heard about this 2024 movie titled "Parents for Christmas". But since I was sitting through a Christmas movie marathon here in December, I opted to add this movie from director Ashley Hays Wright to the list of movies to watch.

Writers Ashley Hays Wright and David Owen Wright put together a script that utterly failed to entertain me. And it was also a script and storyline that utterly failed to capture the spirit of Christmas. So it was quite a struggle to sit through this dumpster fire of a movie.

The acting performances in the movie were rather wooden and soulless. You're not in for an evening of Shakespearian theater, should you opt to sit down and watch "Parents for Christmas". Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list.

This movie was a horrible excuse for a Christmas movie, and it was physically painful to sit through. It was quite far from what you get with the archetypical Hallmark movie, I will say that much.

Needless to say that I am never returning to watch "Parents for Christmas" a second time. And this most certainly is not a movie that I would recommend you to sit down and watch, and literally waste 76 minutes of your life on. If you have an ounce of interest in Christmassy movies, give this one a wide berth.

My rating of director Ashley Hays Wright's 2024 movie "Parents for Christmas" lands on one out of ten stars.
