A Muppet Christmas Carol wouldn't stream on Disney+, so we had to watch Noelle. That's just Elf, but with Anna Kendrick. Her intro to the city was beat for beat Buddy arriving in NYC, but in Phoenix.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I fully understand that it's not a good movie. But Kendrick is so fucking good in this. It's kind of absurd. This is a C- film that her performance alone elevates to a B+.

Then you add in Bill Hader, Julie Hagerty and Shirley MacLaine?? Oh hell yes.

By the end I was all. The movie moved me, actually, even in spite of it's truly terrible low-budget VFX.

It was fine. The kids enjoyed it. I didn't die.

So far watched Home Alone and Elf with my girls. Wasn't getting me into the spirit of things, so I'm now watching Sicario: Day of the Soldado
