When it comes to Computer Screen Films, the one genre that rules them all and that's Horror. So I was surprised to see there's also a Chrismtas comedy out there that makes you actially LOL. Christmas Staycation is short, sweet, and gets you out of the pandemic funk if you're still in it. I really loved the 3 siblings and the original storylines they had to deal with. The Zoom Santa "My Dad is dead" scene made me lose my s***! Amd there's plenty more of funny scenes afterward. The one drawback is the visual quality isn't top notch, but again, it's a computer screen film, so just enjoy the ride! And there's a lot to enjoy!

Christmas Staycation is surprisingly glorious! There's a touching family story with so much humor for modern times. It's empathetic to everyone who's been using Zoom for this entire pandemic and feels like The Office in many ways. Seeing if you worked in an office, you get The Office. Every character brings something quirky, distinct, and charming. The writing, acting, and pace is so well done that you'll forget you're watching a computer screen film. Give it a shot and you will find yourself laughing incessantly.
For a film all shot on Zoom, this was wonderful! Instead of ignoring the pandemic like most holiday movies this season, Christmas Staycation embraces this very strange year and makes it hilarious! From the Zoom-A-Santa scenes to the epic "Gloomgarty Christmas Party" with "28 virtual rooms," this is a laugh riot with a lot of heart and some very sweet moments. The acting is very well done and the jokes are almost non-stop once the story gets going. My favorite scenes were Charlotte's zoom job interviews, every scene with Fiona, and of course, Cousin Skeexo stole the show! I don't know if Boston Market sponsored this, but they certainly should with all those Boston Market jokes. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved this! Hands down, this is the Christmas film of 2020! It's incredibly relatable, hysterical, and endearing.
This Chrismtas Staycation film is a comedic computer screen film made on Zoom in December 2020! It takes place during the pandemic and has a great story. There's ANOTHER Christmas Staycation that came out this year that is NOT THIS! That is another movie that came out in 2015 and took this title for 2021. If you're looking for the original Christmas Staycation, this one is it! And it's worth the watch!!! Super original and filled with hard laughs and heart!
Defintiey worth a quick watch! Very much surprised at how much I enjoyed this film. The storylines, characters, and acting are solid and the jokes are original and UPROARIOS!!! The entire movie is over Zoom, but you can tell the cast and crew had A LOT OF FUN making this! The movie derides it's own platform and this time our lives and the results are heartwarming and hilarious!
