Christmas Eve – 20 busy strangers, 6 lifts, everyone gets trapped, leading to a syrupy-sweet and puke-inducing movie.
The billing makes this sound like a “dramatic, comedic story”, adding that “all of them are transformed by the events of their long night together.” Bleah!
The film stars Patrick Stewart, Cheryl Hines, Gary Cole, and a list that’s less “Who’s Who”, and more… “Who?”
There’s Jon Heder, James Roday, Julianna Guill, Christina Chong, Max Casella, Juliet Aubrey, David Bamber, Shawn Southwick and the ‘sounds like a baddie from his own name’, Lex Shrapnel.
Christmas Eve is released in the US on December 4th, but as yet there’s no UK date. Don’t hold your breath. This has TV movie written all over it!
