Plot Summary
In this holiday comedy, Academy Award and Golden Globe-winner Reese Witherspoon ("Walk the Line," "Legally Blonde") stars with Vince Vaughn ("Wedding Crashers," "The Break-Up") as an upscale, happily unmarried San Francisco couple, Kate and Brad, who find themselves socked in by fog on Christmas morning and as a result, their exotic vacation plans morphed into the family-centric holiday they had, until now, gleefully avoided. Out of obligation an unable to escape they trudge to not one, not two, but four relative-choked festivities, increasingly mortified to find childhood fears raised, adolescent wounds reopened…and their very future together uncertain. As Brad counts the hours to when he can get away from their parents, step-parents, siblings and an assortment of nieces and nephews, Kate is starting to hear the ticking of a different kind of clock. And by the end of the day, she is beginning to wonder if their crazy families choices are not so crazy after all.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Gordon's stars are charmless, his script cheerless, and his sterling supporting cast can't seem to figure out what they've been brought on board to do.
Rotten: Didn't quite get over the hump.
Rotten: Oh, the hilarity of hating your family at the holidays.
Rotten: Projectile baby vomiting is a recurring gag. I cried mistletoe well before the film was halfway through.
Customer Reviews
Hillarious.
This movie was hella funny! I laughed throughout the whole entire movie. Well worth my money.
A Holiday Delight for every Christmas
I thought this movie was FAIR. It's not the greatest Christmas movie ever but very close. Some of the humor could have been improved but I still laughed at it for very encouraging moments. Stuff your stocking with this delight you won't be dissapointed.
