"This is classed as a romance/comedy/drama. There are comic moments but for the vast majority of the film it is a serious drama of a close family forced to spend Christmas with Meredith Morton (Sarah Jessica Parker) a potential sister in law they all dislike.

Up tight Meredith overcomes her uncertainties with aggressive behaviour that starts to undermine the close family atmosphere and the festivities, bringing out their differences, differences encouraged by their parents.

Sybil Stone (Diana Keaton) is a wonderful creation as the driving force behind all this acceptance, the dinner scene where she clashes with Meredith is a classic.

Christmas is the background rationale and not dominate force in this completely unsentimental film, if you enjoy fraught family dramas with touches of humour view this as soon as possible"

This movie sucked and i thought it would be good cause the previews looked good but when i watched it it just sucked so bad. But if you like chick flicks then this would be a movie that you or someone else would like.
