Merry X-mas =)
21 October 2002 | by (Oslo) – See all my reviews

This is a funny x-mas movie. It's filled with love,the x-mas spirit, ambition and humor. If you haven't seen this movie, I think you ought to. I don't want to give the plot away, but I think I can give away the ending; it ends good. =) See the movie or be square.
