But their decision to boycott tradition has the whole neighborhood in an uproar and when Blair calls on Christmas Eve to announce a surprise visit with her new fianc e the Kranks have just twelve hours to perform a miracle and pull themselves and their neighbors together to throw the best celebration ever! With fast-paced energy and support from Dan Aykroyd Cheech Marin Jake Busey and M.

Slapstick humor gets a full-body workout in Christmas with the Kranks. Critics were unanimous in their derision, and John Grisham must have gnashed his teeth over what studio-boss-turned-director Joe Roth did to his bestselling novel Skipping Christmas, to which this broad-stroked comedy bears little or no resemblance. The title characters are played by Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis, who decide to skip Christmas because their daughter's in Peru with the Peace Corps. Thus begins a rabid program of enforced conformity when their neighbors (led by Dan Aykroyd) coerce the Kranks into changing their holiday attitude--a change that comes easily when the daughter announces she'll be home for Christmas after all. Imagine if a suburban lynch mob said "Have a Merry Christmas or we'll kill you," and you'll get some idea of what spending Christmas with the Kranks is really like. And if you laughed at the frozen cat, you're probably on Santa's "naughty" list. --Jeff Shannon

 Just relax and enjoy August 2, 2008
This movie is a feel good movie with some great laughs. Don't have super high expectations and you will enjoy. The end is very touching.
 Really, more like 1.5 stars April 10, 2008
This movie was just boring. The first time watching it, I was fast-forwarding through it just to get somewhere. I'm giving it alittle more than 1 star though, because there were a few funny moments. It's a shame, it seemed like it could have been really cute.

I've never hated anything more in my life than this film. It is a blasphemy to call it a real movie. Whoever wrote this movie, Jesus most definately did not die for your sins. Satan himself endorsed this God-awful abortion of a film. I just burned my hand on a 450 degree oven and it felt better then watching Tim Allen make a complete mockery of the film industry. If you buy and/or watch this movie, you are supporting AIDS,terrorism, and the anarchy of all governments...and you hate children too.Enjoy:)

I am in the UK but my father lives in Virginia, USA. So I ordered 2 DVD's for him from the Amazon USA site. The DVDs arrived promptly at his place and he said he only had time to watch "Christmas with the Kranks" with they thought was hysterically funny.
