Preview: This Christmas (2007)

• Poster: C+

Review:

Slightly more interesting than its cousin The Perfect Holiday, This Christmas' poster at least jumps out at the viewer and seems a bit more festive and refined than the aforementioned film.

• Trailer: C-

Review:

With an all-black cast, it appears we've got a restyling of The Family Stone which was a failure two years ago. Though, from the looks of the preview, the film won't have the Diane Keaton-style reveal or any exceptionally original thoughts.

Oscar Prospects:

Even with the more popular cast of The Family Stone, it didn't earn Oscar attention. I don't think This Christmas is going to do much more than remind Academy voters of when it's coming out (despite coming out more than a month prior).

Release Date:

• November 21, 2007

Full Review Synopsis:
