Jingle Smells

What can you expect from a movie called Jingle Smells? I mean really? Was it named by a child? The fact it's full of wrestlers as well tells you everything you need to know. And the right wing element is hilariously bad, honestly they may as well have just gone with KKKristmas and been done with it.

I cannot believe a) How bad the film is b) That the film was even made or c) Did I say how bad the film is?

And to the surprise of absolutely nobody the reviews section has loads of 10/10 reviews from profiles with no other activity. The director, the writer and Sean Hannity maybe?

The film is as funny as Hornswoggles career, not.

Maybe comparing it to the greats like National Lampoons Christmas Vacation and Home Alone wasn't the best idea. It sets the bar too high for expectations, leading to disappointment. It's interesting to see some familiar faces from past comedies, but ultimately, it just isn't enough to maintain enthusiasm and interest. I'm glad I watched it, but I don't see myself watching it again. It might make for a nice background movie while wrapping presents or decorating the Christmas tree. The acting isn't great, but that really isn't the objective of this movie. It's still a worthy effort at a family-friendly Christmas movie.

I heard about this film from a podcast, and decided to have a watch party with friends. We watched another John Schneider film a few months ago and made it a drinking game every time the actors sounded like a Fox News commentator covering a klan rally and we literally had to stop the game 15 minutes in.

So I'm very glad we decided against doing the same drinking game with this film, because merely watching this movie 'cancels' enough brain cells.

It's not a surprise this sad little pile is just a cheap string of every conservative trope for playing the victim card. But that's just what you get whenever John Schneider makes a move.

First of all, all the 10 star reviews were obviously posted by the producers of the film, because no one in their right mind would give this film a 10. I am a conservative Christian and I'm certainly aware of cancel culture, but this film falls apart in so many ways. It is poorly written, poorly acted, and the story line is just awful!

Cancel culture is a real thing, and this film does that issue a disservice.

The only thing I found entertaining was that it was 'kind of' snowing on a sunny day in New Mexico. And then it stopped snowing, and then it started snowing again. Also, it seemed like Christmas had already taken place, and then they went back and had it again. Clearly confusing!

Don't waste your $19.99!

Love the cast, honestly a bunch of great people coming together to make a fun family movie for the holidays. Sadly, it was for sure missing something and I couldn't pinpoint what.

The movie has a couple of political messages. I watch movies and tv to be entertained and get away from real life stuff, not for politics no mater if I agree with the politics or not.

Always good to see John Schneider. I watched Dukes of Hazzard reruns with my Uncle when I was young and I watched Smallville in my teens. Great actor and from what I can tell from my living room couch, a great guy in real life.

I also want to point out that the young Tyson Jones did great for his first on screen performance.
