Customer Reviews

A Great Film that all ages will enjoy.
I was very excited to finally see "The Family Holiday." Purchasing my copy, I drove home and relaxed in front of my TV. Being a long time fan of Dave Coulier, I was eager to see him in a more leading role, and in no way was I disappointed. Apart from a few weak performances by minor characters, the film is very well directed and acted. The two kids shine, leaving all of those cynics who tend to put down child actors having to recant their comments.

Christina Pickles is brilliant as Mrs. Pendergast, and Coulier shows a dramatic side that few have had the privilege to see. Intermixed with all of Coulier's physical comedy, voices, quick-wit, and good (Clean Guy) humor, is something deeply emotional that finally has a chance to stand out. It's a film that you can watch with your family, kids, adults, elderly, pets, or any plant you may really care about, and not be afraid of what they might hear or see. Kids will love the physical humor, and the crafty skills of the twins. Adults will enjoy the deeper meaning of family, and what truly matters in your life; not the material possessions, but those things that money cannot replace.

Watch it when you want something that will just make you feel good. It will make you want to bake cookies, sit by a fire, hug your parents, and listen to your Grandparents stories. It's a perfect movie for this time of year, time to concentrate on what is truly important: the ones you love. I'd recommend this movie to anyone who has a heart, who can look at the lighter side of life, who has a family, and can watch a movie purely for enjoyment, not as an analysis class. Plus, it has puppies, and who doesn't love puppies?

Please watch this film; it's made by good people with good intentions. It's clean, funny, caring, cute, and above all the meaning of the story is something everyone should hear. That family is a blessing everyone should have in their lives, regardless of age, background, wealth and reputation.

Cute and clean
Thank God for Dave Coulier! Not only is this film clean, but cute and heart warming as well. Dave has an amazing comedic talent and I'm so thankful to be able to show this film around kids and not have to worry about the content. The story is fun, original and easy to follow, I enjoyed it.

A wonderful holiday treat and for $7.99, WHAT A STEAL!!!

Better than I expected!
I thought this would be like most "cutesy" holiday movies (especially those starring children) - corny and predictable. Although it still was, it was quite enjoyable. The children's roles were for the most part not too "cutesy" overdone, the adult roles were well acted and the serious side of Dave Coulier was great to see. Since I couldn't give it 3 1/2 stars I gave it 4.
