Four Christmases - The Movie
Wife and I went today. I didn't want to waste my time with another Holiday movie. I thought they can't be improved upon after National Lampoon's "Christmas Vacation." WRONG! It's been a long time since I've laughed aloud during a movie (while in the theater). "Four Christmases" is so funny, I was practically rolling in the aisle. Vince Vaughn is an excellent comic. His line delivery and demeanor is so attractive that I can not take my eyes off his work. Reese Witherspoon is also good. I've seen her in more dramatic roles than comedy, but this one tops her charts. Dwight Yoakam and Tim McGraw are unidentifiable, but great in their roles. Of course, Robert Duvall always gives you the most you can get. Carrie Snodgress does well in a role stretch. Mustn't overlook Jon Voight's poignant character, either. Every character in this movie was a gem. This movie is so entertaining, it's going to be a "Holiday" movie for years to come. I'm putting "Christmas Vacation" aside, and will purchase the "Four Christmases" DVD when available. Want a good laugh? Come over next year and watch it with me.
