Guinely funny and entertaining Yuletide movie - Christmas with the Coopers review by PV
I usually very much dislike American movies that wallow in psychobabble and focus on people's feelings and problems. This does that - sort of. But what it also does is show us portraits of believable people in interesting situations with snappy and intelligent dialogue - and so as this feel-good film progressed I warmed to it more and more.
It's not perfect but it's WAY better than most Christmas movies and I really enjoyed it.
The dog is great too BUT didn't really believe a certain aspect of that.
The old people here steal the show rather than the kids too.
I can imagine that if this had been done by the BBC on UK TV it'd all be full of noisy northern women and domestics - but here THANK GOODNESS they focus on character and telling a good story.
So 4 stars

CHRISTMAS WITH THE COOPERS - Christmas with the Coopers review by SM
I didn't really like this film despite all the good actors in it. Not all all believable & at times tedious.
