I love my Christmas films. All types. However I have never seen this one as it seemed a bit too saptastic when it came out. One of my friends has been trying to convince me it really is a good Christmasy harmless fun. Is it? I don't want to waste 2 hours of my seasonal viewing on something awful when I could have something amazing on.
Thanks Xmas Grin

Good film.

Cameron is her usual sickeningly gorgeous self : I so want to look like her when she meets Jude in the pub for their first date Xmas Envy jealous

Cameron's wardrobe in it is to die for, all that gorgeous cashmere.

Dreadful film. I do still watch it when it's on though. Some of it I have to watch from behind a cushion it makes me cringe too much.

Love it, super clunky script though, 'dont blow away' I also like while you were sleeping

Trills · 18/12/2016 18:43

How does she even have all that knitwear? She lives in California!

It's along the lines of Love Actually, I think. And I love both of them!

girlelephant · 18/12/2016 19:01

Love it!

Star2015 · 18/12/2016 19:59

Love it! And always have a little cry at the end..... If you haven't seen The Family Stone that's quite controversial but it's another I love too!! Xmas Smile

I love this film and never get bored of it! It's cheesy but lovely to Wink

HollyJollyDillydolly · 18/12/2016 20:20

It's lovely and christmasy. Jude law is quite nice to look at too!Xmas Smile

SatsukiKusakabe · 18/12/2016 20:33

While you were sleeping is an excellent film and not in the same league imo Grin

Cary Grant is not from fucking Surrey.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 18/12/2016 20:37

Oh it's a shocker and I like all kinds of shite!

DoYouRememberJustinBobby · 18/12/2016 20:39

Oh it's terrible but I really like it. I also like the even more awful The Family Stone too.

Blacksox · 18/12/2016 20:39

It's one of the worst I have seen.

I cringe at the memory of it.

Frazzled2207 · 18/12/2016 20:39

I thought it was absolutely awful Confused

SatsukiKusakabe · 18/12/2016 21:02

The bit where KW celebrates waking up in such a big house...shudder.

I just wonder what they were all bloody thinking.

SatsukiKusakabe · 18/12/2016 21:03

I really do!

BeastofChristmasIsland · 18/12/2016 22:19

It's awful and a lot of the dialogue makes me cringe but I still watch it if it's on because I can't resist cheesy Christmassy films. I think I've seen it 3 or 4 times Xmas Blush

dudsville · 18/12/2016 22:21

I saw it once, don't recall it in great detail but it was fun enough at the time!

flapjackfairy · 18/12/2016 22:33

I like this film but i didnt think there was any chemistry between kate w and jack black. He just annoyed me !

BlackIsTheNewBlack · 19/12/2016 17:00

It's pretty awful. Die Hard is my go-to christmas film. 😁

badvocaattasteflump · 19/12/2016 17:09

I love it and I usually hate cheesy films.

Another good Christmas film is Family Man - I watch both every Christmas without fail!

SatsukiKusakabe · 19/12/2016 17:10

Now I have a machine gun, ho ho ho Xmas Grin
