Give It A Chance, You Might Smile
2 August 2007
Plot Summary: Due to a weather storm, an airport gets shut down on Christmas Eve/Christmas, stranding everyone there. All the kids get tossed into a room when our main character kids decide to bust out, leaving trouble in their wake. As punishment, they're isolated yet manage to escape several times in an attempt to bring Christmas to others, among other things.

Review: The acting is a bit lacking at points, and its full of clichés and overused schticks, but it still turned out alright. Quite honestly, I was bored out of my mind the first 15-20 minutes, which felt like half the movie should have been over already. But it really turned around past that. Its got a lot of slapstick comedy and should be enjoyable for the family, providing laughs and a pretty feel-good ending.

Overall: OK, so this movie's not gonna win any awards. But I didn't see why it's rated so low here. Maybe once the DVD hits shelves, people will realize its not all that bad of a movie. No one was expecting the "Citizen Kane" of kids movies here, so if you just want to see some funny stuff and have some laughs, you might actually be satisfied with the movie "Unaccompanied Minors."
