Like the other reviewers sad this is just a poor copy of home alone. Not bad for background noise but that's about it, it's a cute little story and at least no ones a brat.
Apparently all the mother can do is constantly complain about how cold she is. So if you're stuck watching this have a drink every singe time she mentions how cold she is. You'll either be buzzed enough to find this funny or pass out
I wanted to like this, if only for Danny Glover's sake, but I couldn't - it's bad.
'Christmas Break-In' is a borderline 'Home Alone' rip-off, especially with how it sets up the plot - it kinda goes its own way by the end, even it if still misses originality. It also lacks humour and heart, two things it desperately tries to add to the mix - it's barely a Christmas film, too.
Glover is alright, his character is massively forgettable though. Kid actor Cameron Seely tries her best and is likeable, but she's quite wooden with her performance - not helped by the very poor dialogue. The trio of Douglas Spain, Jake Van Wagoner and Denise Richards are awful - Richards slightly better than the other two, not by much though.
A limp effort, pure and simple.

Just a bad movie. The kid is a very far cry from a natural. She needs lessons. That blonde curly sue hair can't carry her. Bad parenting, bad acting, just a bad film I wasted my time on.
Better then the average Hallmark film with a decent Netflix cast. It will pass the time during the holiday season.
I get that this is a light-hearted movie but I was not entertained at all. The characters are all one-dimensional and cliched. Even the girl's tactics are not believable at all.
