Nagykarácsony

I'm not a huge fan of romcoms and I usually don't write reviews, but didn't agree with the previous opinions. The story is interesting, has several deeper things to say. As a romcom it cannot be absolutely without clichés, but I think it's not full of them, there are a lot of funny moments, I laughed a lot and I was not bored at all.

For Hungarian watchers most of the actors are well known. The characters are interesting, they do some usual Hungarian theatrical overplay .. but not all of them, and it was not annoying for me.

My favorite characters were the chestnut sales man and the firefighter with the big moustache.

If you like romcoms, I would absolutely recommend it.

This film was simar to my assignments for school: I start to work on them and the beginning is so perfect, but then I don't feel like working on it and suddenly I have only one day to finish the whole essay. It is true for this film as well. The ending was a little bit disappointing.

Apart from this, I enjoyed the movie, it s great for a cozy Advent night, good for families as well. It was funny, but the end was rough-and-ready. They could have bring out more of it for sure. :) But I'll give it a 8/10 because it concerned important topics, such as anxiety and fear. Also, Hungarian culture is shown in the film.

I am generally ok with romcoms at the right time and place. This film was on local TV in Hungary so I sat down with family and watched it. Wish I hadn't.

The script is just plain boredom. Lines thrown in at random, no real storyline or characters. Really? This is what comes out of a 900M HUF budget? I have seen some shambolic acts in my life, but this is one of the top ten.

With my friends we used to make sport of watching IMDB's bottom 100 films. We came across some really bad, that deservedly belonged to the worst 100, but definitely watched one or two that can easily be replaced with a film like this. This film is definitely not in the region of 6.x points. More like between 2-3.

Thanks for reading.

But dude, you created less than 200 million HUF on a 900 million budget. In USD with hugh generosity.2.5 million budget produced half a million income, what's 20% of the cost.

How do you still have a job? Why isn't the whole hungarian movie industry a big scandal already, when this is the "normal" behaviour there?

A good XMAS comedy to watch at home.

It has everything a XMAS comedy needs: Romance, a pinch of drama, children, humour, music, self irony and a great cast.

Don't expect deep, meaningful dialogues, just funny lines! It's a comedy for winter evenings, sitting on you favourite couch with your family. You can rewatch it every year just like you do with Home Alone.

The story is predictable and built from clichés, but it's done in a funny way. In the end everyone gets what they deserved. I rarely laugh on movies, but this piece made me laugh several times.

Sure it's appeals mostly to Hungarian people, but now you can enjoy it with subtitles on Netflix.
