The Christmas Break

Not expecting much from contemporary Christmas rom coms, this was a refreshing take on the genre and was full of genuine laugh out loud moments. There are of course some cringey moments which are part and parcel of the nature of Christmas movies. And some unrealistic ones too (such as the age cormac claims to be). The new pub also felt a bit like slapstick. But overall, the film has a lighthearted feel and doesn't try to do too much at once, it's a nice change from other streaming services overly engineered movies over recent years. The Irish humour is captured well and overall it's a nice storyline with many relatable elements.
