When I first watched this a few years back I thought for sure it was going to be a C grade Christmas movie, but I was pleasantly surprised.

Tim Allen basically plays the same character that he has been in everything else, but he's hilarious. Jamie Lee Curtis is also sweet and funny. There are moments when it gets fairly ridiculous, but it's all part of the fun. Some heartfelt moments wrap this up with a nice bow.

Christmas with the Kranks (2005) starting Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis is a fun, sweet, warm hearted Christmas film that will make you feel good. I Will never understand all the hate that has been thrown on this film. It's fun and sweet. I adored all the actors and their roles, this film was very well casted! I'm a huge Jamie Lee Curtis fan, and she didn't let me down in this movie, she really delivered as Mrs. Krank. Tim Allen delivered a good performance as Mr. Krank as well, and was very funny. The Botox scene was Laugh out loud hilarious! Several scenes had me laughing very hard, where others just made me feel good and had me in the Christmas spirit. The movie might not be Oscar winning, but that doesn't mean it's bad. It's sweet, heart warming, well acted, funny, and just gets you in the holiday spirit! I watch this every Christmas, it just doesn't feel like Christmas without a visit from the Kranks! Also, the tanning bed scene is absolutely hilarious! The tanning bed scene is my favorite scene in the whole movie. 8/10 for Christmas with the Kranks. It's mostly family friendly as well, just a couple of bad words, mild ones.

Christmas with the Kranks is a good movie with an enjoyable storyline and a good comedic cast.I really enjoyed Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis as the married couple, the two had great chemistry and clearly worked really well together,and also really enjoyed Dan Aykroyd's character.The movie has plenty of funny parts and although it certainly won't go down as a classic Christmas film, it is very enjoyable.I would recommend Christmas with the Kranks as a fun film fir the whole family to watch at Christmas time.

When a couple decide to forget their annual Christmas festivities,preferring to take a luxury cruise,however,their neighbours disapprove.
