6.0 stars.
I don't recall seeing Natasha Bure in anything, and I'm understandably curious to see if she's anything like her mom. But this movie has a very low rating, 5.7, way below the 6.2 line of demarcation I've set for all my Christmas viewings. I just don't have the time for anything below it.
So I did what I usually do with anything this low and I watched roughly the first 30 minutes and then skipped to the last 30 minutes. My initial takeaway is that Natasha tends to be shrill, not sure why she yells so much. The interactions between her and boyfriend are amateurish, which gives me the impression this film is a dry run for them, see if they got the chops.
The cast is a pretty crack crew, but the script is low quality and probably not worth the time spent on it. Four generations of women is very touching and there is so much potential there. I was hoping for a bit of a pleasant surprise, alas it didn't happen. And the finale: cheesy, cheesy, cheesy. IMDB ratings still ring true on the accuracy meter, and 'A Christmas for the Ages' this is not.
