Reel Talk:
Nothing like a good holiday movie. Holiday movies are pretty much all along the same format, you know, there is always a person or people that are not really in the holiday spirit but something happens that sparks the joy to everyone. This film offers no exception, but it is still a good movie. With the mostly all-star Latin cast, this is a touching and humorous film, with Leguizamo and Guzman naturally providing most of the humor.Now there are some unrealistic moments in this film, but overall a very enjoyable holiday movie.
