Gilmoregirl-59340's rating
Why the low ratings? This is such a fun family holiday movie. Don't sleep on the adorable end credit scene. This was such an original movie-not like the cookie cutter predictable ones we are all used to. Eddie Murphy is a delight and tracee Ellis Ross is wonderful. I thought it was entertaining and enjoyable. If you want a comedic, colorful Christmas movie, you'll enjoy this. I also enjoyed the representation and inclusion aspect of the movie as well. All around, really lovely family movie. Definitely worth the watch. Much better than family switch on Netflix-woof! Happy holidays, everyone! And a happy new year.
I truly loved this movie! How someone couldn't love it is beyond me. It's the entire Christmas package. It's heartwarming, funny, and sweet. I loved seeing the inclusion and representation. It's such a refreshing movie and a perfect family watch. I definitely had tears at the end.
I'm so happy to add this movie to my future holiday rotation. I honestly don't know how someone couldn't enjoy this! And teyonah Parris-aka Monica rambeau from the marvels is in it! Just a feel good, lovely movie all around. Give it a chance and you'll enjoy it. Luda did a wonderful job-the casting as a whole was excellent.

I love the haunted mansion ride and was really looking forward to this movie. The trailer looked promising but I still tried to go in with tempered expectations.
To sum it up, I felt like this movie could have been so much MORE. There is such wonderful history and story with the ride that could have given so much creative opportunity that I feel was not used.
I kept waiting for some kind Of twist or realization or climax that just never came. The whole movie just feels like it was missing the magic that is the original story and ride. With so much at Disney's disposal for making this movie, I expected better. I definitely enjoyed some of the actors, Tiffany haddish in particular. But felt like the comedy was lackluster in general. I really wanted to love this movie! But sadly it does not have the makings of a modern classic.
Still worth a watch when it comes to streaming. Not much more.
