It has a very generic setup but the added tension of coming-out helps this differentiate from the big Christmas fares we have seen recently. The acting is great throughout and the Christmas settings are great with a dysfunctional family that feels genuine. Its a mixed bag in terms of ending, while the main story of Stewart and Davis is resolved to a great conclusion, the overall family problems and repair felt a bit too rushed.

I thought this was delightful and it's quite honestly the first time I've ever liked Kristen Stewart - she was super charming. Mary Holland stole the show but the entire cast was great. A-

It’s very cute but Kristen should have dumped her ass and run off with Aubrey Plaza. That whole family is toxic.
