- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Another go-round for the premise of an overaged kid insinuating himself into a stranger's family."
-
"Cynical yet mildly amusing Yuletide-season comedy."
-
"Just like many real-life holiday get-togethers with the family, this comedy starts out pleasantly enough but degenerates into awkwardness"
-
"Can't decide whether it wants to be a black comedy, dumb farce, or sentimental sit-com."
-
"A dismally formulaic hodgepodge of crude humor and wan attempts to tug at the heart."
-
"Ben Affleck's goose is cooked with Surviving Christmas, a movie that makes 'Gigli' look like one of the crowning moments in his career."
