Four Christmases Trailers

Brad and Kate have made something of an art form out of avoiding their families during the holidays, but this year their foolproof plan is about go bust -- big time. Stuck at the city airport after all departing flights are canceled, the couple is embarrassed to see their ruse exposed to the world by an overzealous television reporter. Now, Brad and Kate are left with precious little choice other than to swallow their pride and suffer the rounds.

Let's see. Vince Vaughan, Reese Witherspoon, John Favreaux, Sissy Spacek, John Voight, Robert Duval, et. al. A cast like that deserves a better movie.

A couple struggles to visit all four of their divorced parents on Christmas. Four Christmases is no masterpiece and it's clearly something that you have seen before a lot of times but it's an overall good film with both Vince Vaughn & Reese Witherspoon having a really good chemistry together the rest of the cast was really great too such as Jon Favreau, Jon Voight, Sissy Spacek, Robert Duvall, Kristin Chenoweth and Mary Steenburgen. Overall Four Christmases is funny most of the time and the chemistry between the whole cast is really good but if you except anything more than that you gonna be left disappointed (9/10).

When upscale, happily unmarried San Francisco couple Kate and Brad find themselves socked in by fog on Christmas morning, their exotic vacation plans morph into the family-centric holiday they had, until now, gleefully avoided. Out of obligation-and unable to escape-they trudge to not one, not two, but four relative-choked festivities, increasingly mortified to find childhood fears raised, adolescent wounds reopened...and their very future together uncertain. As Brad counts the hours to when he can get away from their parents, step-parents, siblings and an assortment of nieces and nephews, Kate is starting to hear the ticking of a different kind of clock. And by the end of the day, she is beginning to wonder if their crazy families' choices are not so crazy after all.I would recommend Four Christmases just if you wanna see a cute holiday movie in the theater this year. Vince and Reese had good chemistry and this movie just represents the craziness of having to go to all the families every year for Christmas. There are some really good laughs here and there, I loved the scene where Reese played the Virgin Mary and Vince was Joesph in their church play and Reese just gets stage fright and freezes while Vince just makes a fool of himself on stage. Over all this is a cute movie, there's nothing special about it, but it's worth the look.

The point of Christmas movies is to find something that people would enjoy watching that time every year. Sadly, this is not one of those movies. After watching it once, I would not recommend it to anyone. There is no point to it. It isn't funny like it's supposed to be. Nothing interesting happens throughout the whole film. I can't think of anyone who would enjoy this. They are entitled to their opinions, but I don't enjoy this film. If you've never seen it, then don't waste your time with it. The characters in the film can't do what they want to do and decide to spend it with family, which, according to the film, is a bad thing. I really don't get it. Both parents are divorced and there are four separate Christmas celebrations to one day. But that really doesn't make a good movie. Nothing in it was funny and I would steer clear of junk like this.
