Okay, in exactly how many Christmas movies has Tim Allen been casted in? Too many for me to count. Either Allen really likes Christmas or he just thinks he does well in a holiday movies. Either way, quite frankly, I am getting weary of the "Tim Allen/Christmas" connection. Granted there are some funny parts, but I think I speak for most when I say that Allen should give the Christmas gig a break.

Only cause Blair was pretty!
Dirk R gave it a4:
Read the book. It will take you the same amount of time as the movie, and it's definitely more enjoyable.
Wally S. gave it a5:
A stinker, never has Christmas been so annoying and rotten, it's boring and so unfunny that when a joke works (which is almost never) we yell Halleluia. Allen and Curtis dissapointed me profoundly.

2 points for one genuinley funny moment that last two seconds. The rest is utter poop.
