“This movie should have been way better. Iu0026#39;m not sure why. No real excitement in the writing maybe. Maybe some of the attempts at comedy just fell flat. We have attractive likable leads. The couples parents have a great actor and actress we recognize and like. The brother is witty. There were a lot of themes and good ones- daughter in law pleasing mother in law, surprise pregnancy, loss of job due to a just cause. The movie was pleasant, but it did not have any real emotion, except for a moment when the mother in law is given a locket. The story just did not have good focus and did not come together in a compelling way. I did doze about half way but rewound and re-watched those parts. I see the original title is u0026quot;A Perfect Christmasu0026quot; and this is a good title- they even say it in the ending. u0026quot;An Unexpected Christmasu0026quot; just doesnu0026#39;t do it. Maybe an Alicia Witt could have saved this movie. This was a missed opportunity. I am thankful for the try.”
