"We're gonna be okay, right?" "I hope so... it would suck if we werent." Quiver Distribution has unveiled an official trailer for an absurd new comedy called Nuked, about a group of friends who get super stoned. The title isn't really a pun on being high, it's actually related to the story and what happens while they're high. This premiered at last year's Tribeca Film Festival and will be released this summer on VOD for everyone to also get stoned and watch. A group of friends gets together for a cannabis-infused, technology free, dinner party only to learn a bomb is headed right for them. This seems to be a riff on that Hawaii nuclear missile freak out from 2018, where they accidentally announced that a missile was on the way for 30 minutes before it was called off as a mistake. The pot kicks in right as they realize that they...

Lindsay Lohan has completed her trilogy of Netflix movies with Our Little Secret, and if you liked this rom-com, you will love the Christmas movie that started her return. Although Lindsay Lohan hasn’t stopped acting, she went through a couple of years when her movies weren’t as successful as before.

In between Netflix projects, Lohan had a cameo appearance in the musical film Mean Girls, which further boosted her comeback.

This article contains spoilers for all of the movies included on the list.Throughout film history, there have been several films with incredible plot twists that have had almost no setup at all. There are many films that give their twists away early on, but few that remain ambiguous throughout the entire run of the film. Some movie twists are even better the second time around, making for perfect re-watch films.

Films like Shutter Island and Gone Girl are well-known for their twists, and for good reason. Many of them, especially for a first time viewer, seem to come out of nowhere and come as shocking revelations. However, many of these films' twists are better experienced without spoilers.

Warning: This article contains spoilers for Falling For ChristmasNetflix has kicked off the holiday season with Falling For Christmas, a traditional Hallmark-style movie with a slightly predictable ending which still has some unanswered questions. Falling For Christmas focuses on spoiled heiress Sierra Belmont, played by Lindsay Lohan in her acting comeback, who does not want to accept a job as “Vice President of Atmosphere” from her father Beauregard Belmont (Jack Wagner) at his Belmont Summit Resort, where they are staying. A freak accident after boyfriend Tad (George Young) proposes causes Sierra to get amnesia, and the owner of North Star Lodge Jake (Chord Overstreet) offers his lodge as a sanctuary until Sierra can remember who she is.

Chord Overstreet, George Young, Jack Wagner and Olivia Perez are all among the ensemble, but it’s clearly Lohan’s return that sparked headlines and interest in the film.

A disastrous meet-cute, a freak accident, temporary amnesia, and Christmas — these are the characteristics of the average Hallmark Christmas classic. Still, Hallmark doesn't have the one and only Lindsay Lohan in its arsenal. Netflix has that pleasure. Lohan has had a rough life since becoming a bona fide superstar. Her star power has persisted despite her personal troubles, and her talent is unwavering as her filmography proves she is a star. Her best efforts can be found in comedies, thus making Falling For Christmas the perfect vehicle for a comeback narrative.

Movie Review Falling for Christmas (2022)

Are we looking at a Christmas romcom that is formulaic and an easy venture for the production company? If that is what you expect, well then our mission as critics specialized in romcoms (irony), is quite in vain, and we will be reduced to being nothing but entertainment value arbiters.

‘Falling for Christmas’ is an easy movie, to the nth degree, with elements that have used a myriad times and full of clichés in its script, with some good (at times not so good)jokes, and thusly we have a comedy that writes itself. Now, if...

Audiences who click play on Netflix’s “Falling for Christmas” will be the ones doing most of the falling over Lindsay Lohan’s much-anticipated comeback vehicle. Director Janeen Damian’s light-hearted feature, centered on a spoiled hotel heiress tumbling into a character-enriching circumstance, isn’t necessarily served up as the average cup of holiday cheer and rom-com charm. There’s a lot more to it than that. Its subversive spirit, female-forward smarts and sweet sentimentality remix the formulaic and festive, making all things merry and bright.

Wealthy, pampered heiress Sierra Belmont (Lohan) plans to spend a snow-blanketed Christmas at her father’s (Jack Wagner) exclusive ski resort with her narcissistic, social media-obsessed beau, Tad Fairchild (George Young). She anticipates being offered a job by her dad as the property’s “Vice President of Atmosphere” to give her something to do rather than spend her days idly drowning in champagne, caviar and couture.

If you’re going to do an Overboard knockoff that slides into the generic sludge of sentimental holiday-season rom-com, then at least find a couple of leads with the charisma and chemistry to pull it off. Unless you’re feverish with excitement at the prospect of Lindsay Lohan’s screen comeback — and if you are, I’m sorry for your life — Falling for Christmas won’t give you much pleasure beyond the recollection of Goldie and Kurt’s fractious, frisky rapport in the 1987 favorite about an obnoxious amnesiac heiress who falls for a blue-collar misogynist. As a model for stars with terrific comedy chops elevating mediocre material, there are worse starting points.

This sub-Hallmark dreck made by a bunch of hacks that don’t deserve to be named is the first film out of Lohan’s Netflix deal and her first feature in three years.

National treasure Jennifer Lopez gave an Oscar-worthy performance in the exotic dancer true crime drama “Hustlers” in 2019. In 2022,

As a lifelong Lohan fan whose childhood was marked by watching two Lindsays in “Parent Trap,” forcing my mom to see “Freaky Friday” to understand my plight of being an 8-year-old, and dreaming of moving to New York after watching the “Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen” DVD nonstop, I have wanted to believe in the Lohan-aissance. Like Santa Claus, the idea of icon Lindsay Lohan coming back on top in Hollywood seemed like the stuff of a Christmas miracle. Well, “Falling for Christmas” proves that every Lohan fan’s holiday wish has come true.

“Falling for Christmas” has a simple enough plot: Lohan plays Sierra, a hotel heiress (think Paris Hilton meets Lohan Beach Club) with a heart of gold and a wardrobe of jewel tones. After a proposal from her...

It's that time of year again. It's November, which means we're getting all the heartwarming Christmas movies we can shove into a stocking. As promised this time last year, Lindsay Lohan has returned to acting in "Falling for Christmas." The new rom-com decked in pine boughs and twinkly lights is on the way to Netflix, though you could be forgiven for thinking it was from Hallmark Channel or Lifetime. 

In the film, Lohan plays a hotel heiress who dresses up like Nordic Barbie and treats people like dirt. Then she gets into a skiing accident and loses her memory. Taking care of her is the "blue-collar lodge owner" played by "Glee" star Chord Overstreet. Do you see where this is going? Of course, you do. You've seen "Overboard." Amnesia plus a hot-but-not-rich guy necessitates a stuck-up wealthy lady who learns the value of family and love. Plus, he has a daughter,...

Lindsay Lohan’s big comeback is hitting all the nostalgia buttons with the release of a new version of “Jingle Bell Rock.” As you surely remember, the countryfied yuletide tune, first popularized by Bobby Helms in 1957, appeared in a borderline-racy scene in Lohan’s 2004 sensation “Mean Girls.” With the imminent release of “Falling For Christmas,” she and rapper Ali Tomineek have collaborated on a mall Pa-ready update to the update.

“Falling For Christmas” co-stars Chord Overstreet, George Young, Jack Wagner, and Linsday’s younger sister Alina Lohan. In it, our star plays an heiress who befalls a skiing accident, suffers amnesia and, no doubt learns the true meaning of Christmas while staring into hunky Overstreet’s dreamy eyes.

This summer, the 36-year-old Dubai-based Lohan married her boyfriend Bader Shammas. Earlier in the year, she starred in a Super Bowl ad for Planet Fitness with William Shatner, Dennis Rodman, and Danny Trejo...

"They're probably out looking for you right now." Netflix has revealed the trailer for a romantic comedy called Falling for Christmas, marking the directorial debut of a producer named Janeen Damian. This looks like a Hallmark channel holiday movie, with a few extra wacky jokes thrown in (that racoon bit at the end what?!?!). A newly engaged, spoiled hotel heiress falls into a freak skiing accident, and awakens with total amnesia. She finds herself in the care of a handsome, blue-collar lodge owner and his precocious daughter in the days leading up to Christmas. This features a script that almost feels like was specifically written for Lindsay Lohan, playing up the "you have to forgot about someone fancy and famous to rediscover them" angle quite a damn bit. But it does look somewhat amusing. In addition to Lohan, cast also includes Chord Overstreet, George Young, Jack Wagner, Olivia Perez, Alejandra Flores,...

Start your holiday countdown now: Lindsay Lohan's Netflix Christmas movie is heading to the streamer in November. The movie, Lohan's first since 2019's "Among the Shadows," looks like a classic holiday rom-com with a heaping helping of candy canes and jingle bells on top. Lohan stars alongside "Glee" alum Chord Overstreet. In the trailer for the movie, released Oct. 7, Lohan and Overstreet's yuletide antics - and love story - are soundtracked with the song "Jingle Bell Rock," which, of course, Lohan famously sang in "Mean Girls."

Netflix's log line for the movie reads, "A newly engaged, spoiled hotel heiress gets into a skiing accident, suffers from total amnesia, and finds herself in the care of a handsome, blue-collar lodge owner and his precocious daughter in the days leading up to Christmas." Yes, that sounds pretty much like the plot of "Overboard" with a Christmas twist, and we're totally ready...

Lovers of cinema, rejoice! Lindsay Lohan is finally back (even if her memory isn’t) in Netflix’s Falling for Christmas — and lo, we’ve got ourselves a trailer.

Written by Jeff Bonnett and Ron Oliver, the movie stars Lohan as a “newly engaged, spoiled hotel heiress who gets into a skiing accident, suffers from total amnesia and finds herself in the care of a handsome, blue-collar lodge owner and his precocious daughter in the days leading up to Christmas.”

Days after the streamer confirmed the release date for the actor's highly anticipated holiday movie, "Falling For Christmas," the second part of her two-picture deal with the company has been revealed - and, of course, it's another rom-com!
