“The Christmas Crashers/Christmas Party Crashers (2022) -u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe leading characters Tara and Tre werenu0026#39;t exactly the charming lovelies that Iu0026#39;m used to from these films, but it was easier to connect with Tre, played by Jaime M. Callica, because he hadnu0026#39;t been quite as deceitful and seemed to be coerced, but even then I felt that he was a bit weak for being dragged through the mess and actually he didnu0026#39;t really feature that strongly in the film, considering he was the second one in the credits. There was too much time spent with everyone else trying to impress and not enough of the romantic connection itself, although it was fairly obviously there.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHe did have a lovely little face though and he looked great in just a towel.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTara, played by Skye Townsend on the other hand, was just a bit of a cow. Yeah she had issues outside of the fact that she was a liar and fraud and she couldnu0026#39;t immediately see how cute Tre was, but she was definitely not a character that I could appreciate or like.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe farce unfolded in an incredibly over the top way, as they infiltrated the successful Everest families home pretending to be a party planner and established clothes designer and it was more than a bit much at times. It also seemed to be a film full of stereotypes and u0026#39;Kardashianu0026#39; wannabeu0026#39;s, which the world doesnu0026#39;t need any more of. In some ways it was like a cheap u0026#39;Fresh Prince Of Bel Airu0026#39; (1990-6), without being as well put together.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOnce again and in fact more than once, there was a lot of forgiveness ceded very easily on many fronts and that stretched belief a bit too far.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf Jaime hadnu0026#39;t been so cute, I would never have made it until the point where he was just in a towel, whereupon I decided to stick with it, just in case it happened again, but honestly, and I know I say this a lot, and I would, but I thought that it would be more likely that Tre was gay and that Tara would have found that London (Kajuana S. Marie), the Everests precocious and pretentious daughter, had a brother to fall for. Or that they would have both fought over him.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThere just wasnu0026#39;t enough polish on this one to believe the high life they were supposed to be living and the attitude of the film was a bit nasty.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e3.75/10.”
