Viewing Notes

Not good and one of the worst Christmas movies I’ve watched during this Advent Calendar, on the second to last day no less. This is a bit surprising given the popularity of the title but it’s true. I give a ratings bump for Keaton and Henry Rollins, who I wish had a larger part because he’s great with the few lines he’s given. Otherwise this is just too sugarcoated and goofy for my tastes. The sickly sweet soundtrack doesn’t help.

I am curious how all the Zappa kids ended up in this.
