Horrifically cheesy and filled with too many stories

Rating: 4/10 (19 December 2014)

What a giant piece of crap. I knew it was going to be really cheesy and shallow, but I thought I might get a little entertainment out of it. I thought wrong. There are 10 stories all happening at once, which is absolutely absurd. You will completely forget about all of them at one point or another. Why did the director include so many? There should have 3 or 4 tops. Any more than that makes your film cluttered and overly crowded. Because there are so many stories, each one gets very little screen time, which means you do not build a single emotional attachment to anyone in this movie. Since there is no attachment, you do not care about what is happening, which makes you want to go to sleep. On top of this, the film insists on beating you over the head with the message of "love is everywhere in many different ways and you should act on your feelings on Christmas". It is possibly the least subtle message in a movie ever. Nothing of value here. Stay away.
