CHRISTMAS WITH THE KRANKS

CHRISTMAS WITH THE KRANKS - C

Don't have a lot to say about this movie other than it was "so bad, it was good." The story annoyed me, yet the ridiculousness of it made me laugh. I laughed more at how bad it was, than I did the fact that it was actually funny. 

Despite a weird, nonsensical script the film had an all star cast. A cast that truly gives testimony to how good actors can turn even the worst of ideas into something watchable...even entertaining to a degree. Tim Allen, Jamie Lee Curtis, M Emmett Walsh, Dan Aykroyd, Cheech Marin, Jake Busey and of course the late Tom Poston.

The last thing to say is that I often complain about films with great premises and build-ups that have huge let down endings. This film did just the opposite. The ending itself was fun, uplifting and heart warming, but getting their was a total drag.
