Thoughts
Yea, this just wasn't very good at all. No one's going to say that the previous two were works of art, but they were Christmassy and fun and why not. This was the weakest of the lot by a long way. The fact that it was Christmas was tangential to the entire story, and two of the three Vanessa Hudgens characters took a back seat... presumably because they are both happily married and that's the end of their story. They are no longer interesting people. Rage.
Genuinely the only good thing about this film was that Gunnar was in it.
Rating: 1 / 5
