Nativity Rocks! (2018)
Enough now
I saw this film before Christmas last year and I got to say I wasn't impressed. The other Nativity films were better but this one had a completely different cast compared to its predecessors. The storylines were weak and I found it unsettling where a full grown man was in a bedroom playing with 2 children. Totally inappropriate, hope there will be no more made as that killed the franchise for me. Saw The Grinch around the same time and that was the better of the new Christmas films for 2018 so would recommend that instead.
Love the Coopers (2015)
For the first time ever, I wanted to walk out of the cinema. Very gloomy film
I went to see this film before Christmas and when I saw the trailer for it, I expected it to be a comedy and full of laughs. How wrong I was. I'm not usually the one who leaves the cinema disappointed but on this occasion I was, in fact for the first time ever I was close to walking out before the film had finished it was that depressing but I paid a lot of money to see it so I had to see it through. The plot itself was very confusing on how the characters were connected, it just dragged out too much I just lost focus by the end. Most of the characters on there just argued most of the time throughout the film over stupid things. There was one scene that shocked me the most and it was the Amanda Seyfried character who appeared to have been self harming herself judging by the slash mark on her wrist. That was not something I expect from the Christmas film. I took my sister to see it who is disabled and I often take her to cinemas, lucky she didn't understand what was happening but she later told me she didn't enjoy the film, I made it up to her a few days later and took her to see the Peanuts film which was much better. Christmas used to be a happy time of year but these days it's just all doom and gloom. I don't think I'll ever watch a new Christmas film again, I'll just stick to the old faithfuls. When it comes out onto DVD and Blu Ray next year, don't waste your money on it. Just download from Netflix and see for yourself how awful it is. This is a rare instance where I was actually disappointed when I left the cinema. This is nearly 2 hours of my life I won't be getting back. I will not bother watching it again.
