    • Quotes

      [after the Chinese Restaurant waiters' surprisingly beautiful performance of "Deck the Halls"]

      Old Man Parker: I wasn't expecting that.

      Chinese Restaurant Owner: What were you expecting?

      Old Man Parker: ...I don't know.

    • Crazy credits
      The credits started with all the actors coming out starting with the students and ending with the major characters as Bebe Rexha's "Count on Christmas" played again. Then while the actual end credits run as an instrumental version of "It All Comes Down to Christmas" plays, the cast and crew celebrated the end of the production, plus some behind the scenes footage is shown.

    Horrible

    Anyone writing anything positive about this is writing on behalf of the production team or the pr people. Even the scenes are set wrong. Go back to basic remake 101. You don't make a classic better you enhance what it was / update it. Should of kept it close to the original as possible. Worst show I've ever seen do not recommend it even if your deaf and blind.
