π 2021 Christmas Binge Watch Movie #44 π
The premise for this movie is ridiculous. Due to Santa’s shenanigans two people buy the same house and have to stay there until after Christmas to renegotiate the sale. Until then anyone who steps one foot off the property line forfeits the house. So the games begin to try to push each other out. I like that the premise is out there, the acting was fine, full of likable characters save one, and it made me laugh. I didn’t like the main guy, the love interest, he annoyed me to no end. The ending was a little schmaltzy and predictable, but over all this was pretty entertaining and fun. Defiantly a nice surprise for me because honestly I wasn’t expecting much. I will say that I was obsessed with this lady’s eyebrows, put me in some kind of trance. π
My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐
