[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 348930, member: 33"] [B]The 12 Days of Christmas Eve (2022)[/B] [IMG width="316px"]https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BNmY2YzMzNzgtNGQxNy00ZWE5LWE3ZDItN2JhNGFmODUxZjg5XkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMjkwMjY1MjI@._V1_FMjpg_UX1000_.jpg[/IMG] Unusually, even though this film is a reworking of familiar stories it's not really riddled with the usual Christmas film clichés but it does have some: [LIST] [*]Family business is in trouble. [*]Boss of business too focused on profits to have any Christmas cheer. [*]Daughter is estranged from father. [/LIST] The film is a combination of [I]Groundhog Day[/I] and [I]A Christmas Carol. [/I] Kelsey Grammar plays Brian, the owner and CEO of a large electrical repair company who dies in a car crash on Christmas Eve. Santa appears to him and gives him the chance to relive the day up to 12 times during which he must prove he understands the true meaning of Christmas. To achieve this he realises he has to repair his relationships with his family, friends and employees and as each day is relived, he learns from his experiences and gradually morphs from a bad-tempered, mean-spirited individual to a kindly and generous man. Kelsey Grammar is very watchable in the lead role. There are some nice moments of humour and the film was quite good, although quite predictable at the same time. [/QUOTE]
