MERRY EX-MAS

Cinemavixion Review

During a festive yet potentially frosty Christmas blizzard, this film strands its protagonist with his ex-wife, her affluent beau, his former mother-in-law, and his daughter. The narrative setup promises a classic holiday entanglement, exploring the dynamics that arise when past relationships are unexpectedly confined together by circumstance. Director Brian Skiba orchestrates a scenario rich with potential for both comedic friction and heartwarming reconciliation, centered around a cast featuring the talents of Ernie Hudson, Dean Cain, and Kristy Swanson. The confined setting becomes a crucible for revisiting old wounds and perhaps rekindling forgotten affections, all against the backdrop of a winter storm that halts the outside world, forcing introspection and interaction.
