HERE IS A REVIEW FOR THE MOVIE DECK THE HALLS FROM DVDTALK


Principal: "Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul." That quote may be from Adam Sandler's "Billy Madison", but does it ever fit "Deck the Halls", one of the most delightfully awful films (this isn't merely "so bad, it's good", this is "so awful, it's great!") I think I've ever seen. There are bad films where they're so bad throughout and stay so true to their terribleness that you wonder if it was all some sort of colossal joke by the filmmakers to see if they could actually get the material made - this is one of those films. The film stars Matthew Broderick as Dr. Steve Finch, who lives with his wife Kelly (Kristin Davis) and two kids - daughter Madison (Alia Shawkat) and son Carter (Dylan Blue). As the film opens, he's planning this year's Christmas festivities for their disinterested kids who Steve actually calls, "a little weird." (What a caring father!) Things are interrupted by the arrival of his new neighbor, Buddy Hall (Danny Devito), who arrives with wife Tia (Kristin Chenoweth, whose chest is given enough attention by the filmmakers to deserve a "supporting" credit) and twin teenage daughters Ashley (Kelly Aldridge) and Emily (Sabrina Aldridge) in the middle of the night. Buddy invites his neighbors over, only to have Steve's son get quite a view when a topless painting of Tia (she met Buddy when he was peeking in the window when she was nude modeling for an art class) is "accidentally" left on display. Buddy's ditzy daughters later are gathered around the computer looking at "My Earth" (read: Google Earth, but Google wouldn't let them use the name) and explaining it to their father. Now, walk with me through the next element of this film, which is really the entire plot of the picture. The girls zoom in on their neighborhood, where they can see Steve's slightly larger house, but they inform Buddy that they cannot see their own (this, despite the fact that Google Earth can see any house.) So, the multi-billion dollar satellite can see Steve's house, but not Buddy's slightly smaller house...directly across the street. So, Buddy comes up with the idea to put a crapload of Christmas lights on his house in the hopes that it will be seen from space. Doesn't this seem like it would be the plot of a "Home Improvement" episode if that show was still on? Doesn't anyone wonder how Buddy can afford what looks to be a Christmas display costing tens of thousands when he's deep in debt and has been going from job-to-job and town-to-town?
