Tudo Menos Natal

I started watching it with little expectations, but after the first 20 minutes it really managed to engage me fully! Funny characters, nice plot, great morals and all in all, it had all the ingredients for a funny and sweet Christmas movie. It is an excellent choice for Christmas time!

A normal Christmas movie with a very banal moral but very sweet even if perhaps at times a bit annoying and not very entertaining. Ultimately, however, the film is great to watch with the family because it is sweet and light.

This movie is nothing but a Xmas one, is very well option for the season, all the ingredients for a comedy under snow, songs, trees, deers, and all Xmas related. If you enjoy of the typical movie for the Xmas, this one is for you, it has all.

Maybe you know the feeling: on one hand you kind of like Christmas, on the other hand you find it almost disgusting and maybe even unnecessary. A consumer filled chaos, that is quite stressful if you think about it. In the tradition of the Gremlins and one characters hate for Christmas, we have our main character here, who cannot stand Christmas at all. How lovely - and so well played.

Now of course in stark contrast you have many other characters who are deep in love with the idea of Christmas ... and deep in love with each other. Or some of them love someone else - even if that love is not being received or rather given back the same way.

Now I'm not going into details, but you can imagine where this is heading ... still Santa Slays and Reindeers aside (or whereever you'd find them), the movie is a lot of fun ... and it really gives us an idea of how funny a comedy can be, if it has the right ingredients. Very well made and a movie that seems to be for everyone - although comedy always is a special genre, so there is that ...

If you are nostalgic for the comedy of earlier years you'll enjoy this one. This more physical comedy keeps us surprised and laughing, and thank you to the Spanish for keeping pure comedy and romance in our lives (something the American cinema used to do).
