Okay, I'm all for sappy, silly, mushy, good, not so good, any kind of Christmas/Holiday movies. Really...I love watching Fa La La La Lifetime movies and pretty much all holiday movies.
This one? Not so great. I usually don't care if they are that good or not, but man....Daphne Zuniga's sort of sweet baby talk voice throughout this thing when she had raised the two most selfish, self absorbed boys, and the most unappreciative husband was completely annoying.
Someone else should have been the mom...possibly Julia Duffy, who did look WAY too young to play Daphne's mom. Bad casting I agree.
But, as a REAL mom who catered, makes about 7 different art items and sells them, has hosted teacher parties, private parties and more all at this, the pretty much busiest party time of the year, would NOT have talked so sweet and baby to my selfish family, had her family been mine. Man.....whoever wrote this should have pointed out the meaning of Christmas to those selfish boys and to the husband.
My husband sprung a HUGE housewarming for his coworkers at OUR house with a one wk. notice and he was all about shopping for the items for me to use for making the massive foods etc. and helping me. He asked me last minute, so he fully helped me get ready. This chick's family? Man oh man.
And they all kept hushing her with "I'm sorry...and smirking." What was THAT about?
Whoever wrote this should have at least made the mom a bit stronger or less door mat shaped. Strong enough to poor cake batter over the son's selfish heads and telling the husband to get the dept. head at his work, to hire a catering company to handle the dang party.
Okay, enough griping. Such stupid boys and dad.
I KNOW there are guys out there who can cook, clean and shop....I see them at the grocery store. So, let's hear it for YOU guys...not these guys.
And, no offense Daphne....talk in a real voice next time.
Thanks. Merry Merry to ya.
