Produced via the Russo brothers (sure, the ones Russo brothers) 2014’s “A Merry Friggin’ Christmas” does what it says at the tin, handing over a half-assed try at attraction that leaves its target audience out within the chilly.
Every other movie that includes actors who will have to have recognized higher (Lauren Graham, Candice Bergen, Oliver Platt, Wendi McLendon-Covey), it follows Boyd (Joel McHale), who’s pressured to spend the vacations together with his very bizarre, very estranged circle of relatives to witness his nephew’s baptism. When Boyd realizes he forgot his son’s presents at house, he and his father (Robin Williams) embark on a street go back and forth to save Christmas and make sure that Boyd’s son nonetheless believes in Santa Claus.
Missing the nastiness and rick-taking of its edgier friends, “A Merry Friggin’ Christmas” fails to ship any type of innovation, leaning as a substitute on time-honored clichés and a skilled solid given little to do however be nasty to one every other. That this was once probably the most ultimate movies from Robin Williams (launched in a while after his passing) handiest twists the knife deeper on that 14% Rotten Tomatoes ranking.
