29th December 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Family and friends meet for one last Christmas, before the world ends.

Two brothers, several bad decisions, and — thank god! — one happy ending. (Very spoilery. If you’re after my review, it’s here.)

An American author finds love when she travels to Scotland to visit the childhood home of her late father.

Boxing Day trailer: does true love triumph?

30th October 2021 by Sarah Leave a Comment

And who is Melvin actually in love with: Lisa or Georgia? We’ll have to wait until 3 December to find that out, though judging by this trailer the movie itself fulfils my strict but simple rules for a fantastic festive film. To stop me going all bah humbug on exhausted moviemakers, they need to provide… Boxing Day trailer: does true love triumph? Read More
