This film about two rival neighbours competing to have the best Christmas lights should have been great, ITV did a one off Drama about a similar scenario and pulled it off well, but this is a mess.
The worst thing is that it wastes a great cast, led by Matthew Broderick and Danny De Vito, but nothing can paper over the fact that this film has a weak script, and actually, a poor sense of Christmas spirit.
I know at this time of year people will watch anything remotely festive, but this film has the potential to make anyone a Scrooge.
