A Christmas Too Many

One of the worst directed and written movies I have seen in the past 10 years.

Great cast, but, their acting was as I was watching a community play, put together at some high school.

It was sad watching great actors say bad lines and act as this was their first time acting.

A writer should never be the director of their own work. A good director that what the writer(s) have written has the actor act them out in a way that tells the story better.

The lines spoke in this movie show that the writer is very young and new, and should refine their work before making a C rated movie.

I think the writer, put up his own money to do this movie and didn't let anyone help him make it better.

But, I guess everyone has to start someplace.

This movie is so over the top that it is hilarious! It has one of Clint Howard's most memorable performances as a stereotypical hair dresser, a role you might not recognize him in if you didn't know he was in the movie.

What an incredible waste of time. The acting was awful, the writing was awful, the plot was awful, the dialog was inane, but I repeat myself. Save your money, save your time. There were one or two funny spots, there were also 3 or 4 uncomfortable, off color lines which weren't necessary and in my family, removes the movie from general family viewing, not that I would ever want to watch this again. Mickey Rooney was mildly humorous, that is when it wasn't obvious that he was staring beyond the actor he was talking to in order to read his cue cards. I suppose this is destined to become a cult classic, but for my part, I'd rather have my money back and I'd be glad to donate my copy to the Smithsonian's bad movie collection.

A Christmas too many really was not a Christmas at all!! This had to be the worst movie I've ever seen. It was torture watching it! Bad acting and poor Mickey Rooney to be asked to do this movie! He must have dementia to have wanted to do this movie!! Rented it on VOD and it showed a Santa laying in the snow?Where was the snow in this movie?? Worst ever people save your $5.00 . How it could get 7.3 ????? OMG I'm shocked , literally shocked!!

Now Deck the Halls was a funny movie that gave what it intended to. It was light-hearted and the set was a Christmas set. Where was the Christmas in "Christmas too Many" ?

This movie was turkey "a Turkey Too Many"!!!!!!

This is a very funny and very sick movie. You have to enjoy the type of humor for which Seth McFarlane is known, and unless you watch this on broadcast TV, prepare for a great deal of bad language. I heard several people get reprimanded for their language but didn't hear any. Usually this was because the sound went out at appropriate times. Substitute words also seem to have been added.

Ruta Lee is great, and Mickey Rooney surpasses even his "brother" Andy and yet still manages to be appealing.

Wait, Lana and Clark? Only on "Smallville", and even that one ends up with Lois.

Kevan Michaels and Johnny Ferrara are very good as the two "mobsters".

Andrew Keegan is also very appealing as the poor loser boyfriend.

When the director of the movie Lana wants to be in shows up, this adds even more laughs. He brings an agent who didn't do anything for me. I forget her name.

One highlight for me is Gary Coleman as the guy who delivers pizza after some family members complain about having to go vegan just because of Jack. He actually makes himself right at home and is quite funny. I have to wonder if Coleman was a loser who had to take roles like this where he made to look pathetic. But he convinced me that he was enjoying himself, and I hope he was, because I was enjoying watching him.

About halfway through the movie, something really bad happens, but this just makes the movie funnier, unlike a similar movie I saw a week earlier where tragedy turns a comedy into a drama.

The side effects from Uncle Teddy's medication give us the opportunity for some disgusting bathroom humor.

It's definitely not your typical family Christmas movie. It's a family, but don't let the kids watch it.
