I have never been a fan of comedy or Will Ferrell, but I actually saw this movie on DVD and didn't hate it. I think the main reason I liked it was because of the scenes from Chicago I could actually identify. Thanks for reviewing it.
ReplyDelete"Didn't hate it" lol I guess sometimes that's enough :)
DeleteI'm not a Will Ferrell fan except for Elf either. I haven't seen this film, but since it got pretty good reviews it might be worth the watch.Happy new week.
ReplyDeleteIt's such a different concept, and I think that's what I liked about it.
DeleteI'm not a big fan of Will Ferrell either, not even Elf and I tend to love all things Christmas ...lol 😁. I will probably give this film a try as you enjoyed it so much 😁. Thanks and wishing you a happy new week! J 😊
ReplyDeleteI hope you like it.
DeleteElf is more slapsticky than I like, but it's so much better than I had expected. This film doesn't go the slapstick route at all, which I appreciated.
I join the not-a-fan-of-Will-Ferrell group and only watched this because Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson were in it. Was surprisingly good. :)
ReplyDeleteThere's something else we all have in common: being not-a-fan-of-Will-Ferrell :) I do like Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson. I don't remember how I came across this one, but I was also surprised to like it.
