Despite the silly
title it’s actually a very enjoyable film.
It’s about Rebecca
Fine (Vikki Krinsky) a Jewish girl. From an upper class Los Angeles family and
Henry Kringle (Tommy Lioutas), from a choir-singing, church going, dyed in the
wool traditionalist family from the Midwest who are in love.
Not only that they
become engaged just before Christmas and as a result the Fine’s agree to delay
their vacation in Aspen and meet the Kringle’s the week of Hanukah just before
Christmas in Madison, Wisconsin.
Which is when the
humour really starts as the two cultures collide and despite both sides good
intentions and their trying to respect each other’s' traditions, it turns out
to be a bumpy ride.
The film is definitely
at its funniest when the main protagonists, Suzie Fine (Wendie Malick) and
Marilyn Kringle (Cynthia Stevenson) butt antlers.
Very enjoyable and
well worth a watch you will soon forget the silly title.
