Holiday & Xmas Movies

By Geno McGahee Christmas films always present situations that are not very likely. You can’t sit back and say “that’s impossible” because it’s Christmas and when it comes to movies celebrating this holiday, we get all sorts of strange stuff. Santa can be real, Elves as well, Otters can have […]

By Geno McGahee As I watch Christian and holiday films, I keep stumbling upon Kevin Sorbo. He must have the most Christmas spirit in the world next to Dean Cain, who does almost exclusively Xmas movies. They were both in GOD’S NOT DEAD… they probably have the same agent and […]

By Geno McGahee You ever see the movie FREQUENCY? I loved that movie. I think the filmmakers behind DEAR SECRET SANTA liked it too. It’s not a ripoff, but it has some common threads that I really enjoy. I love films about time travel, except BACK TO THE FUTURE III […]

By Geno McGahee Last year, I reviewed the dreadful HOME ALONE 4 and I summed up my thoughts like this: “HOME ALONE 4 is an insult to film, an insult to Christmas, an insult to John Heard, Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, John Heard, Catherine O’Hara, Tim Curry, an […]

By Geno McGahee I picked up SURVIVING CHRISTMAS on a four pack of holiday movies last year and I wasn’t incredibly eager to watch it, but it was either this or another Hallmark holiday movie. So, I said what the hell and put the DVD in and it was actually […]

By Geno McGahee Every year I try to find a new Xmas series of films to review for the holidays. I want to spread joy and I do love this time of the year. Eager to spread joy, I went to the Xmas DVD section at Walmart and found THE […]

By Geno McGahee My Christmas holiday movie review spree continues and has led me to a somewhat strange made for TV film called “ANGELS IN THE SNOW”. A dysfunctional family, the Montgomerys, are on their way to a cabin that the father, Charles (Chris Potter), has just built. The tension […]

By Geno McGahee I have been to New York City a bunch of times and I’ve seen those guys that do that three card monte hustle. In fact, when I was much younger, my friend got taken for 40 bucks and he was an asshole the entire way home after […]

By Geno McGahee It’s that time of year again when I watch and review as many holiday films as I can. That is how much I love Xmas and the festivities. The 2005 film “THE FAMILY STONE” is a comedy/drama that has an all-star cast and does a great job […]

By Geno McGahee Dear lord. I wonder if I should end my review right there, but since I was a trooper and sat through NATIONAL LAMPOON’S CHRISTMAS VACATION 2: COUSIN EDDIE’S ISLAND ADVENTURE, I feel that I need to share the pain with you, the readers. Now, the writer, Matty […]

By Geno McGahee The impact of HOME ALONE was incredible. It began a trend of children taken on bumbling adults and coming out victorious. It’s a great formula for a film where both children to young teens and adults can enjoy. In the 2006 “UNACCOMPANIED MINORS,” we have a HOME […]
