Christmas with the Kranks

Christmas with the Kranks was a chuckle from beginning to end. Almost everyone has wanted to skip Christmas, has hidden in the house from Christmas Carolers and felt the pressure of neighbors to keep up with the Jones with Christmas decorations. All I had to do was LOOK at Jamie Lee Curtis and the frumpy hair and Christmas Vest and I had to laugh. While Tim Allen was hysterical as the husband preparing for Carribbean Cruise by getting botox injections. I watched the movie 3 times and everytime I belly laughed at Tim Allen trying to eat in a restuarant with his face frozen by the botox. Jamie Lee was perfect as the suburban housewife, hiding in her home one day from the neighbors demanding that Jamie give them the huge 15 foot snowman in their basement, so that they may decorate the Kranks roof with it - like every year. Anyone who appreciates Jamie Lee, frumping down into a great performance, espeically as she fights a shopper for the last Honey Ham in the grocery store, will chuckle at this movie, and laugh out loud in some places. There is sentiment too. I totally enjoyed Christmas with the Kranks and will be sure to bring the movie out every December for pleasant Christmas viewing.

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.

Had to rent bcuz we love it so much

Great Movie!!

An alternative to mushy holiday movies and it still captures the important elements of the holiday- family, friends, faith, helping, giving and rejoicing. It does all this with laughter.

A Christmas favorite. The harsh reviews....really? It is fantasy and fun based off a fictional book. Lighten up. This movie has a ton of humor and extremely Christmasee to satisfy that longing we sometimes cant find. With the snow, the lights, the family plans, etc. Although the entire kid and letting the crook out of the cop car and robbery scenes were odd and didnt really fit in the movie. I love Tim Allen he is a part of our Christmas tradition in this movie as well as the Santa Claus series. Hes just truly a funny, great actor. Jamie Lee awesome in this as well! The tanning scenes are off the charts and can not believe she did that scene I am cracking up just thinking about it! Sit back with a spiked egg nog and enjoy! Merry Christmas!!

Awesome

Hunker down with your family and get ready to enjoy a holiday classic.

This is really a fun movie. It is just as cute as it can be Ive watched it several times and now watch it every Christmas. We watched it as a group with some friends from our church and we just laughed and laughed at is so funny.
