Product Description
ARE WE THERE YET?: When Nick (Ice Cube Barbershop) falls for single mother Suzanne (Nia Long Big Momma's House) he initially doesn't have to worry about what her kids think of him because she just wants to "be friends." Undeterred by this statement- or his buddies who dog him for loitering in the stalking-friend zone- Nick keeps hanging around. So when Suzanne finds herself in a jam and needs someone to escort her kids to meet her in Vancouver for New Year's Eve Nick gladly opens the door for opportunity. It could be the best way to win her heart or the biggest mistake of his life. With more that one destination on his mind Nick embarks on a road trip he'll never forget- and neither will you!CHRISTMAS WITH THE KRANKS: When their only daughter Blair leaves the family nest Luther and Nora Krank (Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis) decide to book an island cruise to beat the yuletide blues and just skip the holidays. 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. Emmet Walsh this hilarious adaptation of John Grisham's best-selling novel "Skipping Christmas" has become "an instant family classic!"

Funny movie, but sends a bad message December 20, 2009
D. J. Nardi (Washington, DC)
Gotta love a movie with Tim Allen and Dan Akroyd. Christmas With the Kranks stands out in a crowded sea of Christmas movies. Tim Allen tries to boycott Christmas. However, his neighbors and friends, led by Dan Akroyd, succeed in stopping him. Along the way, Tim Allen and his wife suffer from hilarious antics.
As much as I like the movie, I gave it a slightly lower rating because I think it sends the wrong message to people. It essentially advocates giving into the commercialism of the "Christmas-industrial complex." Everybody shuns Tim Allen because he wants to take a vacation rather than host a Christmas party for his neighbors and decorate his house. Tim Allen never did anything truly Grinch-like - he just wanted a vacation for himself and wife. The morale of Christmas With the Kranks seems to to be buy a lot of Christmas paraphernalia and give into peer pressure. If you can get around that, you can appreciate the humor in Christmas With the Kranks.
