A Loud House Christmas

I thought it was cute. I'm clearly not the target audience but I watched it with my 6 year old son. He was glued to the tv. He absolutely loved it. So for me I think it succeeds at what it is trying to be.

The casting was horrible, the characters didn't seem like themselves. The whole movie was horrible. And the acting was terrible! I hated it! The emo girl was so bad and loris bangs where terrible I actually thought Lori was the mom!

I think the problem with some of the reviewers here is that they had high expectations for this film but keep in mind this is a live action Nickelodeon film. If you know anything about Nickelodeon you know that their live actions films tend to be cheesy, low budget and a bit generic . My biggest criticism for this film was how unlikable they made Lincoln. Usually he's an understanding and sympathetic character but the lengths he went to sabotage his sisters plans for Christmas made it very difficult to feel sympathy for him ,although it's completely understandable that he wanted to spend Christmas with his family his actions really left a bad taste in my mouth. Also I wasn't a big fan of the sharkodile bit but Other than that I think the actors and actresses did a great job portraying their respective characters. For me the best part of the film was the ending. Despite everything That happened it was really heartwarming to see the family enjoy Christmas together and even though Lincoln was responsible for nearly ruining everyone else's Christmas. It was really great to see that everything went back to normal and worked out at the end.

I remember when the Loud House first aired on Nick in 2016. It was a breath of fresh air for Nick given a steady stream of mediocre shows. However, the series has had a decline in quality with most episodes now being bland and safe. So when I heard about this, I was skeptical, but curious. After watching this movie, I can safely say that this movie this well.... kinda pointless.

I feel that the plot of this movie is underdeveloped. Lincoln wants his entire family home for Christmas. However, his eldest sisters are planning different events while his family is planning to go to Miami. To keep the traditions, Lincoln sabotages all their plans, but goes too far. He then tries to make things right and admits he was in the wrong. While I would have done a few tweaks to Lincoln's story, the writers should have spent more time on other B-plots, especially with Lori's return home.

There were some moments that made me chuckle, but not laugh out loud.

Overall, I feel that this movie could have been a good adaptation of a cartoon. However, I think that it suffers from the seasonal rot of the show. It's something that I probably wouldn't recommend to anyone.

Aside from a few bad wigs, this Loud Christmas movie was really good...in the way that the cartoon is good! The sets were amazingly accurate and the child actor who played Lisa was eerily on point! It's comical and fun. Don't critique this as jaded adults, look upon this with the wonderment of a child.
