welshnew50 ** WARNING** this however-long , how-to-react-emotionally to 'life stresses' , consumerist-exposure-saturation film-resource , should NOT be viewed as a film , is generally bad for your mental health and is advised against being used upon people at risk of making decisions about relationships they already have with others, as well as contains a truly sickening indirect non-personal incestuous sexual-functioning dream-scape sequence, that would make a visiting NW-African burrow-funeral tomb-digger throw his lunch up OR, give up his ambitions to become the next Slash, alternatively.Should be avoided when it comes to most realistically-grumpy aged-care, and not used upon children, however chronologically-aged, at all.
Dave This is meant to be a comedy?! I didn't find it funny in the slightest. This film is too long and too slow. The storyline between Kate Winslet's character and Jack Black's is unrealistic. Even though Black isn't being the obnoxious, hyperactive, overbearing nuisance that he is in most of his films - he's still nowhere near appealing enough for pretty Winslet to want.
studioAT For many 'The Holiday' has joined the ranks of Christmas classic's in terms of films. I wish them well with this but for me this is an average film that is made marginally better by an all-star cast, who seem to be having a better time than the audience.It's trying to be like 'Love Actually', it's trying to be sweet and romantic, but in the end I just didn't buy into Jack Black's character, or the one played by Kate Winslet.It has it's moments, but for me they are far and few between in an overly long film that could've been over and done with in 90 minutes tops.But it's Christmas, we are kinder to films that are trying to entertain us. Even if this one tries too hard.
@jhg Kate Winslet deserves much much better than Jack Black! He is fat, not remotely handsome, and boring. Kate is beautiful, funny, smart, talented, and shining on the screen. She shouldn't have played the second woman. The girlfriend. She is a leading lady. The movie is boring too, not funny, not smart, not entertaining. Not even related to Christmas, just shot at Christmas time. Judd Law is too good for Cameron Diaz too... Maybe, if Kate and Judd, and Jack and Cameron would make a couple, that would be better. Horrible, fake. Just got the feedback I need 10 lines when I actually wrote 11 lines. Not sure whats the issue IMDb... So added this text hopefully will accept.
