Thursday night we were having movie withdrawal and went to see the Holiday "Comedy" called "Nothing like the Holidays". If you saw the previews of this flick, you, like me, would have considered it a movie like "4 Christmases". You, like me, would have been wrong! It does have several funny or amusing moments, but it is more serious than it is humorous. Don't get me wrong, we thoroughly enjoyed it. It is about a Porto Rican Family in Chicago at Christmas with the kids coming come for the holidays. One is coming from Iraq. One is coming from Hollywood. One is now an attorney with a Jewish wife and coming from New York. The parents aren't getting along. It is time to stir the stew. It is well acted and stars John Leguizamo and Debra Messing. It has substance and some challenging family issues. ***stars
