Movie Review: Four Christmases

Thursday, December 3, 2009
Synopsis: When upscale, happily unmarried San Francisco couple Kate and Brad find themselves socked in by fog on Christmas morning, their exotic vacation plans morph into the family-centric holiday they had, until now, gleefully avoided. Out of obligation--and unable to escape--they trudge to not one, not two, but four relative-choked festivities, increasingly mortified to find childhood fears raised, adolescent wounds reopened... and their very future together uncertain. As Brad counts the hours to when he can get away from their parents, step-parents, siblings and an assortment of nieces and nephews, Kate is starting to hear the ticking of a different kind of clock. And by the end of the day, she is beginning to wonder if their crazy families' choices are not so crazy after all.

Starring: Vince Vaughn, Reese Witherspoon, Noah Munck, Haley Hallak, Robert Duvall
Directed by: Seth Gordon
U.S. Rating: PG-13

Four Christmases, the latest christmas movie with Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon is worth to watch. It is about a couple with no serious commitment about their relationship, that enjoy to live their lives together and relax on their christmas holidays away from their parents and relatives. They never expected that right at the very last moment of their perfectly conceived plan, a deep fog that covered San Francisco Bay would ruin their holidays. While being at the airport trying to find a flight to escape on their holidays, they're approached by a TV News reporter and suddenly, they've found caught on camera and contacted by their families. Then, they have to cancel their plans and visit their families for christmas. Both of them have 2 families to visit, their mothers' families, and their fathers' families. A really entertaining plot with some thoughful situations about the importance of couples' commitments and family relationships. A really good and entertaining movie for this christmas season, now that it has finally been released on DVD!

What did I like from this movie?

1. The most hilarious scenes on this movie is the moment they visit Reese's mother and her family! Her mother, grandmother, sister and other ladies in that house are a bunch of cougars!
2. So funny when Vince is intimidated by Reese's sister and her hot appearance. She gives the baby to her husband who's playing video games and she says... "he's good with babies"
3. Hilarious when the baby vomits on Reese's blouse and Vince is about to vomit too because it is really disgusting for him
4. Vince's dad and brothers, so funny! I really laughed when they're opening their gifts and Vince gave a XBox to the little kid and a satellite dish to his dad when they set a top of $10 per gifts

What did I dislike from this movie?

1. I really enjoyed this christmas comedy, I don't find anything wrong with it. It's a good option for a good relaxing night on christmas season
