There are some of us who really dread Christmas. Yep! So much that they fly away to some faraway land to avoid it. That’s exactly what Brad and Katie have planned until their plans are squashed. And they are talked into attending not one but four Christmas parties – hence the title!
Four Christmases (2008)
Director: Seth Gordon
Stars: Reese Witherspoon, Vince Vaughn, Mary Steenburgen
Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon play a couple who are comfortable with each other, until they visit each other’s families and find out they hardly know much about each other! The tension gets to them finally and separation looms. A very efficient supporting cast makes Four Christmases more enjoyable. Kate wonders at her sister’s increasing brood, and how her parents seem to have found peace with each other inspite of being separated. Family pressures compel them to face some phobias like the jump-jump and the Christmas pageant, and above all – babies! The humor is LOL and diffuses the drama adequately.
Will their love survive this onslaught of holiday relations and latent emotions. You will find out when you watch Four Christmases.
