"If dark English humour is your bag, then this is for you. This Christmas special of The League of Gentlemen is utter genious and takes you on three back stories of differnt characters all weaved together with the vicor/Pappa Lazzaro story. Unfortunatly, unless you've seen the original series, you may not get some of the jokes and not all the humour will be to everyones taste, but the fact that this piece of television is outstanding down to the last detail cannot be denied and would have been worthy of a cinematic release. There are slight hints of a spoof here and there(sloutions - Eyes wide shut), but each story is so original and wonderfully written, all is forgotton. The story begins with the vicor takeing her anger of the joys of Christmas out on a passing Christmas procession by throwing a snow ball (mixed with her unrine) at the santa on a float.As she is closing up the church she is visited by three people who confide in her their own horrific Christmas stoies.

"This is a pritty sappy movie, and has some dodgy special fx and some dodgy fake snow in some of the New York scenes (its snowing bubbles!) but putting all that aside there are some very likable charachters and some very tender moments. What holds this movie together is that its well acted. " [More]

"This movie is a typical all American Christmas movie thats tried to cash in on the success of Home Alone and National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. As badly executed as this movie is, I found it all worth while watching it for the rolling ham sequence and Curtis' dry humour is on the ball through out. " [More]

"I'm not going to say too much about this movie, because its my most loved Chrsitmas Movie of all time (my 'Gone With The Wind' of Christmas movies). Nuff said. " [More]

"I only discovered this movie last year and while I wasn't blown away by it, I did find it rather amusing. Spacey's dry wit is most definatly the high-light of this movie and Leary plays his character as well as anyone could have. This movie is good for a laugh, but I wouldn't watch it to near to Christmas because I did find it a tad depressing. High light - when they all sit around the table wearing the crowns with candels on. CM " [More]

"I'm not a huge fan of chick fix, chrsitmas is my bag, but this is the two combined (kind of). In this movie we don't actually get to see their Christmas day celebrations, it goes from Chrsitmas eve to New years eve. At 2 hours 15 mins I found it dragged, Black was not on screen nearly enough and Law's charachter was completely unbeleivable (the whole dead wife thing). If you've seen 'Vanilla Sky', then your know what I mean, Diaz's charachter was the same as the one in VS (except for turning out to be a phyco-maniac) and I felt she was going to turn any second. This is a shame, because I love Diaz, but, again, I found her character unreal, someone who's never cried before, even though they try their harest - come on. Highlights - Black, Winslet's Cottage, Law's kids. " [More]
