Love The Coopers

 

 

When I first saw the preview for "Love the Coopers" I thought it to be a Christmas fluff movie: fun, shallow and entertaining. I kept putting it off for the bigger movies. Yesterday, we went to see it and: It is NOT Fluff!  This well written movie of the Cooper family coming home for Christmas. Four generations under one roof and a story for every family member. It is an all-star cast.  The stories include first kiss, sibling rivalry, potential divorce, dead-end jobs, no jobs, and not having a good relationship.  All this has elements of fun mixed with reality and angst.

It gives anyone much to consider.

2014 movie #54  I give it *** 1/2 stars out of five.
