United States | Chicago Reader | "This ensemble drama by screenwriter David Hubbard isn't perfect, but its harsh honesty and sincere faith in humanity make it genuinely uplifting" | POS |
United States | Los Angeles Times | "Palminteri and screenwriter David Hubbard desperately want the crazy misfits in their movie to move the audience, but they're all too cracked to inspire empathy. There's no holiday magic" | NEG |
United States | Chicago Sun-Times | "There's a point at which the plot crosses an invisible line, becoming so preposterous that it's no longer moving and is just plain weird." | NEU |
United States | The New York Times | "Though clearly meant as a heartwarmer in the longstanding holiday tradition, the film comes off as strange and sour." | NEG |
United States | LA Weekly | "Sentimental, borderline-bizarre Christmas movie that boasts just enough good acting to make up for the treacle." | NEU |
United States | TV Guide | "The individual stories are so truncated that they can't do much in the way of giving their characters real emotional depth" | NEG |
United States | New York Daily News | "A plodding, contrived Christmas tale that wastes the talents of his well-known cast" | NEG |
