A Merry Friggin' Christmas

"The makers sprung for the fancy wrapping but skimped on the gift inside. How else to explain the gathering of such a talented and likable cast in service of such undercooked, utterly laugh-free material?"

"The movie exudes a low-key warmth."

"Even with Williams in fine, feisty form in perhaps his final major role, it still never comes close to justifying its slender existence."

"Mostly enjoyable if familiar stuff sporting a limber ensemble cast."

"A dysfunctional family holiday comedy that squanders the talents of its impressive cast who presumably signed on merely to work with the comedy legend."
