THE HOLIDAY : I've got a life to start living

 


Do you believe in second love opportunity? It’s often said that our experiences give us knowledge and influence in our future decisions.According to experts,Christmas is a perfect time to analyse our love situation and it isn’t a right one Why not? to dream of a new one.The Holiday is a clear example over this fact,Iris and Amanda had gone through too much in their sentimental life,but Santa Claus will give them a new love.

The Holiday is a romantic film produced and directed by Nancy Meyers in 2006.This Christmas and comedy were filmed with a well-known cast such as Kate Winslet,Cameron Diaz,Jude Law and Jack Black.Needless to say that this type of film usually receives mixed reviews,some of them believed that this film is a leisurely feel good rom-com,yet there were reluctant pointed out that this Christmas movie is thoroughly preposterous,the utter bourgeois fantasy of a romantic comedy.Despite these strong negative opinions,The Holiday grossed over a huge worldwide.

Iris (Kate Winslet) is a pretty journalist who is still in love with her ex,despite she suffered several affairs during their married.Amanda Woods (Cameron Diaz) has a similar situation in her relationship.She is a movie producer and she finished her love due to her ex boyfriend's lies.Both exchange their residences in a home swap website due to they need to change thieir current lifes.There,not only will they recover over heartbreak,but will also find a new love illusion.Miles (Jack Black) and Grahan (Jude Law) will make them all the difference in their hearts.

I love it! It’s one of ta handful of movies I watch every year during the holiday season.Kate Winslet delivers a wonderful performance as Iris.The scene with Jack Black on Christmas Eve is a wonderful heartfelt,as are all her scenes with Eli Wallach.Cameron Diaz delivers as the smart movie trailer maker,Jude Law completes the ensemble.The excellent cast and storyline are the right combination.

if you were a melody…I used only the good notes.

JINGLE ALL THE WAY: It’s a turbo time



Can you imagine being to the role of Harold Langston? It’s often said that the presents at Christmas is the most important part for children.They usually send with huge passion their letters to Santa Claus or three wise men,yet children are looking forward to spending time with their parents in this warm time and it is true that the situation in our stress society is not easy.I’m sure that Harold would have wished to spend more time with his son in spite of looking for his son’s gift.

Jingle All the Way is an American family film.It was directed in 1996 by Brian Levant and it was also released by Fox company.This loving Christmas film initially received negative reviews,generally from Schwarzenegger haters.Besides,it is fair to point out that Fox was ordered to a compensation due to the fact it was supposed for stealing the idea.Finally,this film had a sequel in 2014.

Howard is a stress business man who is always worried over his work,he spends long hours in the office and his family,his wife and his son Jamie,is fully upset about that because he always promises them to change his timetable.The day before Christmas,Howard is involved in a huge traffic jam,he arrives very late at home.Once he gets home,his wife comments him that if Howard could buy the Jamie’s Christmas wish,an action figure of Turbo-Man which is a popular television superhero an it is so difficult to achieve at this time.Howard lies his wife saying that he had bought this toy.So,immediatelly,Howard goes to the shopping center in order to get it.There,he realizes that it is impossible to find it,it is out of stock in all malls.During this chaotic process,Howard figures out a rivalry with Myron Larabee (Sinbad),a father with the same ambition.In desperation due to his unforgivable neglect,he suffers fights,experiences with car thieves along with police persecutions.Maybe,Howard will keep his promise in future situations.

It’s crystal clear that not only is this film a way of entertaining,but also a comedy.For this last reason,it’s fair to point out that while there’s some genuine laughs and warm sentimentality to be had,it is vital to take into account that Brian Levant’s Jingle All the Way represents everything that’s bad with Christmas today concerning of consumerism.

….Always keep your promise if you want to keep your friends.
