Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAccording to gossip, the main actors were unhappy on set. Kristin Chenoweth was still coping with her split from Aaron Sorkin, Danny DeVito flew in to film his scenes rather than interact with anyone, and Matthew Broderick could be found on set shaking his head in disbelief, repeatedly stating, "I've hit rock bottom." Kristin Davis told her that she should have her eggs frozen.
- GoofsWhen Steve takes out Buddy's power with the snowball, all the lights go out. There should still be *some* lights, as Buddy is stealing part of his power via extension cord from Steve's house.
- Quotes
Mrs. Ryor: [receiving an eye exam from Dr. Finch] I don't need glasses!
Steve Finch: You need binoculars, but we're settling for glasses.

Featured review
fun Christmas film
While this movie is not laugh out loud funny, I still found it cute and entertaining. I especially liked the unique and bright light display. I don't know if most of those lights were just computer generated or if they decorated a real house, but it sure looked amazing.
In the movie, Buddy hall and his family moves across the street from the Finch's. He comes up with the idea of making his house bright enough to be seen from outer space. All the lights and traffic begin to aggravate Steve Finch. He makes an attempt to sabotage Buddy's lights, but his attempt isn't very successful. He competes with Buddy in the town speed skating contest. Steve's wife gets along with Buddy's and she and kids begin doing things different. Steve wants everything done the same as in the same "family traditions." Buddy and Steve learn a lesson in the end and what it means to be good neighbors.
FINAL VERDICT: Entertaining. 12 year olds should like this as well as adults.
