A California Christmas: City Lights (2021)
Ok
This movie was ok. Kinda cute cliche story. My issue is with how many plot holes there are. So much is not explained, unnecessary stuff is added in and in both movies the "villains" actions are never really addressed and they just get their own love interest in the end. Why? Also why to the whole last seen. No one needed this. I understand the lead actors (who are married in real life) just had a baby but we don't need a 3rd movie about it.

2 stars for being able to finish the movie?
Honestly, I think this movie has aged pretty poorly, their treatment of women, POC, and possibly people with disabilities is really quite bad. Dane cook who is supposed to be the protagonist learns nothing, is crappy to his friends, and gets the girl by default because his misogyny is more low key? Also the movie is based on characters we learn nothing about. There's literally a conversation where Jessica Simpson and Dane cook are like "you're not like other boys/girls" but give no information about how/why this is the case. Some low key funny moments but mostly good if you want to laugh at how bad and nonsensical it is. I do want to give a shout-out to the grandma who was the best part of the movie and the lift operator who made their hideout possible but never got any credit.
