Review Time
Warning:
there is flashing effects/colourful effects/rainbow
community/drugs/burning/references to sexism and racism and there will be centred adult language reference in this content.
This Christmas film is hard work: briefly; we meet Bradley Mack/another character [Kiefer
Sutherland:] he is a performer that quickly finds rock bottom and in a nutshell
he has no other choice but to be a character in this Cinderella Theatre
production in the UK.
Generally speaking: how can I put this nicely... the script frankly messes
the bed of the majority of this film, it takes ages to feel like that this film
is going to get up and going; be it the framework or pacing or both and when
you think this project which goes on for roughly 97 minutes is either settling
down to get going or actually beginning to look like a or feel like a Christmas
movie, something comes along in this project to completely derail any positive
elements on any level whatsoever and then it just repeat the cycle again and
again until you get to the final section where yet again it mostly feels like a
Christmas movie, but it just has another time to drop one more clanger just
before the final section.
Art,
comedy and action; everything surrounding any form of the theatre production be
it rehearsals or showtime; this is the biggest positive to this project,
including the extra bits and pieces at the end of the movie by absolute miles;
likewise be it artistically or/and comedically it looks excellent and
good-natured even when our lead role doesn't take it as such in one occasion,
but then again our lead role has a physiological altercation with
Kieran
[Danny Dyer:] he is a divorced dad that once was married to
Jill
[Rebel Wilson:] she is the choreographer working on this pantomime: but we have
Bradley vs. Kieran which is good.
Character
developments and performances; yet again I made reference to the script,
because some of these character developments consequently dialogue exchanges are
god-awful, I can't stress how much these movements completely derail the film,
why did we have this really awkward moment with Bradley and Jill when without
giving too much away Bradley defines their relationship, when a character
developments and chemistry, suggest quite clearly something else might be on
the cards, so this in itself is just careless and frankly stupid character
building, but when this film is good these character developments and
subsequently performances can be a solidly good version of what you would
expect from a Christmas film to be.
This film receives: 4/10, this film is mixed; as I have already indicated in
one way or another this project has had problems, I mean on reflection I
decided to reduce the mark, because there is a better reflection of this
project and how the negatives affected it, this film also has a blooper a reel
in the ending credits.
