Review

A star rating of 2 out of 5.

Dave Aldridge

Vince Vaughn and Walk the Line Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon star in a lame-brained but blessedly short comedy about a happily unmarried couple who re-evaluate their relationship when forced to split their Christmas Day between all four of their divorced parents. Sissy Spacek and Robert Duvall play Vaughn's mum and dad, while Mary Steenburgen and Jon Voight are Witherspoon's. The strength of this supporting cast should guarantee some laughs, yet all four actors are criminally underused by director Seth Gordon. His emphasis on slapstick crowd-pleasing rather than quality comic interaction earns a few cheap ho-ho-hos but, generally, these Four Christmases are not so merry, in what is very nearly a Christmas turkey.
