Comment/Synopsis

In the run up to Christmas 4 very different sisters gather at the mansion of one of them and when their estranged father appears with his younger girlfriend family secrets start to be uncovered. Kelsey Gramer is the father and his surname is Christmas and hence the title of the film. This is a light and entertaining comedy based around the Christmas reunion of a disfunctional family. The plot is quie thin and not really logical in parts and the humour uneven, but there are good performances from John Cleese and Kelsey Grammer as the estranged brothers. Nathalie Cox's character is the central character but not the best performance.
