Christmas with the Kranks

I finally watched this movie which has been maligned for years. But, I found it to be a heartfelt, quirky and love-able Christmas movie with a message. Tim Allen plays a man who convinces his wife, wonderfully played by Jamie Lee Curtis to skip and ignore Christmas in lieu of his dream Caribbean vacation. Well, life disrupts his plans when their daughter decides to surprise then with her fiancée for Christmas. The movie starts with the Kranks pissing off everybody form their neighbors, the police, the tree salesman, etc with their message of no Christmas décor, tree, party or celebration. The latter half sees those same people come together to help the Kranks slap together a home Christmas for their daughter who is beloved. Dan Ackroyd, Cheech Marin, and M. Emmett Walsh have solid supporting roles

This movie we watched it with my family every year I had to have it on my collection.

pleased overall, just as good as i remembered and some of my girlfriends family including her had never seen it. made for a good time with a feel good ending.

Loved the acting. Characters were very believable. Very funny situations. Good moral to the story.

Simply hilarious! This and Elf are my families yearly Christmas movies.

This is a hilarious Christmas movie. Always a fun watch!

We watch this every year. It will make you laugh and remind you what the holidays are all about. For that matter you could watch this all year round!

Very funny lighthearted

I was so shocked this year watching this movie to find out my husband had never seen it! He was surprised by how much he enjoyed the movie. It is such a classic at this point and will forever be one of holiday season must watch.

I remember watching this movie with my son at the theater. Its been a tradition ever since. I just love it!
