Surviving Christmas

I recently saw Surviving Christmas which is a movie directed by Mike Mitchell and stars Ben Affleck ( Drew Latham), James Gandolfini (Tom Valco), Christina Applegate (Alicia Valco), Catherine O'hara (Christine Valco) Josh Zuckerman ( Brian Valco) and other good actors as well. The story revolves around Drew Latham who is a lonely young millionaire who returns to his childhood home to spend Christmas there with a family he has never met before. I thought that the plot was funny enough to make several sequels. Basically you have a somewhat disfunctional family that is not really all that into the Christmas spirit and then you have a total stranger who pays his way into the family for Christmas, which can only but make things even more comical. I had heard that this movie did not get that many good reviews but I would say that it was a really good movie because each of the characters in the movie are in fact characters themselves. It was also a movie that kept my attention the whole time because you don't really now exactly how the Valco family feels about Drew until the end. So I would recommend this movie to anyone out looking for a good movie to check out.
