Deck The Halls Film

The patently unwatchable Deck the Halls makes those flicks look like It's a Wonderful Life and (the original) Miracle on 34th Street by comparison. (Well, not really, but I'm exaggerating to make a point: Do NOT rent, purchase, or spend less than 3.7 seconds contemplating the DVD cover of Deck the Halls.). Review: Deck the Halls. Interview: Miranda July on Kajillionaire and the Malleability of Movies. Review: Beginning Is a Transfixing Study of a Woman's Faith.

There are a select few Christmas movies that are really, really good. Deck The Halls is not one of them. It's a hollow exercise, full of poorly motivated characters hanging from a clichéd story (neighbours become rivals after trying to ‘out-Christmas' each other). It leaves you with the feeling that someone has come in and re-written it, without quite finishing the job.

Why is Buddy (Danny DeVito) dissatisfied with his job? The answer to that might have made things interesting. The best casino games. Instead we get something so innocuous it's irritating. It wouldn't be so bad if the jokes and the set-pieces were funny; as it is, they're weak and sluggish. Bah, and indeed, humbug.

Deck The Halls 2011 Movie

Got any kids who've been naughty this year? Here's their present. Deck The Halls isn't funny or moving. It is a waste of some talented actors, but that's about it.
