Summary: It is not that bad
Review: I don't know why does almost everybody hate this movie. I think that's pretty funny.
The cast is excellent and the plot is so morbid that you can just laugh. I did. It was a kind of Married with children (with Al Bundy)-story because the movie wasn't so sweet like a candy...and we have several candy-chistmas films so I think is was time to do another type-movie as well.

So if you like something different and you can accept that chistmas is not the same for everybody, then buy it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Mixed Nuts
Review: I don't understand what everyone doesn't like about this fabulous movie. It's my personal favorite and every minute is hilarious to me. In every review I've read, it's described as dreary and dark, etc. But I think it's delightfully wacky and exceptionally smart. Why do only I realize the coolness of this movie???? Watch it again and again until it grows on you! It's great! (Especially Madeline Kahn's elevator scene and Adam Sandler's song, that's a high point.)

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Moderate...
Review: I had my laughs, but it wasn't great. I expected more..

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best ever
Review: I havent seen this movie in like forever. But I have to say it is the best. I love Adam's song to Juliette Lewis on his ukalale( how ever you spell it) this movie gets 2 thumbs up from me!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Twisted sense of humor.
Review: I laughed all the way through this movie. It has a definite WARPED sense of humor, so be prepared. Either you'll love it, or hate it. I chose to love it.

All the characters are great in this film. I always enjoy Steve Martin, and he was quite amusing and clever in this movie. Rita Wilson (Tom Hank's real life wife) is quite delightful as Martin's lovely but underappreciated coworker (and potential love interest). The late Madeline Kahn is my particular favorite--she has the most sharp and clever sense of humor, and her talents are displayed well in this movie.

There are plenty of other future stars in this film (Adam Sandler, Jon Stewart, and so on) and they all do well in their parts.

The story goes awry during the last 20 minutes or so, so suspend your disbelief. It isn't supposed to make sense, or be realistic. (Or at least, it ought not be!) It's just a bizarre and funny movie. There's also lot of gallows humor here, so be warned, and just allow yourself to appreciate it!

Christmas on Venice Beach is certainly a unique experience in this movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Adam's song was so cute!
Review: I liked Adam's grape jelly song. It was so cute! The soundtrack for this movie contains it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: mixed Nuts is nuts!
Review: I love this movie. It's just so busy. There are all these little story lines that all mix together in a group of people, that are just a mess, looking for the silver lining in their own personal dark clouds, and hoping to find a little happiness on Christmas eve. Plus, there's a killer on the loose to go along with all that craziness. It's a fun movie, and there really is a moral to the whole thing if you stick it out to the end!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What are they *TALKING ABOUT?!!!* I give it 5 stars
Review: I was shocked to read the faint praise of the editorial reviewer! Gosh, this is one of my most favorite movies, especially for Christmas!

Yes, they're a bunch of lovable losers, yes, I'm a sentimental slob, and no, I think the movie is an absolute winner.

Be warned: I think movies like "Blazing Saddles", "Dracula: Dead & Loving It" are funny. I like Get Smart, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, etc etc. I guess I'm just not reviewer material!

I think Madeline Kahn is brilliant in this; so is Adam Sandler (which is saying a lot; ... well, he's not actually brilliant, but he does a great ensemble job--I don't know how to describe it. He contributes, okay?) Everyone is at least competent.

The movie is far far greater than the sum of its parts. To the director, I must say: wow. You're good, kid.

Summary: What? No DVD?
Review: If they didn't like it, it's cause they weren't bright enough to get it. Smart comedy. Watch for the dog tranquilizers. I WANT THIS ON DVD. Christmas movies never die. I don't want my tape to either.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This movie is HILARIOUS!
Review: If you're a Steve Martin or Adam Sandler fan, you'll love this movie! It's a great Christmas movie but funny enough that I watch it any time of the year! With a funny story line and great cast, I highly recommend getting this movie!
