Thoughts
I love, love, LOVED this film. Right from the start and every minute of it until the end. The trailer looked fun but I wasn’t really expecting a lot - a sort of Jonas brothers rip off of Planes, Trains and Automobiles. And it was that, but it was also so much more. It was hilarious, right from the start, I laughed a lot. They don’t take themselves too seriously, and stack the whole thing with great jokes and self-deprecating moments. The songs are good, maybe not as Christmassy as I hoped, but still excellent for a modern musical.
There are only tiny problems with it. I can’t bring myself to talk about their representation of St. Pancras, and the CGI of various plane-related incidents was so bad it was cartoonish… although that somehow made it more palatable.
But a great cast, plenty of surprises, a fun story, lots of laughs, some moving songs, and, of course, a happy ending. LOVE.
