We rank Netflix’s Christmas movies from hilarious to hilariously awful

Just add elephants. The focus of this movie isn’t actually the burgeoning romance between Kate and Derek , but the one between Kate and the elephant sanctuary that she comes to call home. In real life, Davis is a passionate supporter of animal rights, and you can tell through her onscreen interactions with her very cute co-stars. Sure, Lowe and Davis have great chemistry, and they’re two big movie stars who know exactly what they’re doing.

My only quibble about this movie, which is truly less cheesy and much more enjoyable than it appears in marketing, is that it’s… not really about Christmas? Kate’s family takes one Christmas card photograph at the start, before her husband brutally dumps her, and there’s one sort of pivotal scene at a Christmas dinner at the elephant sanctuary. Other than that, Christmas is barely mentioned. Strange.Yes, there are issues with this movie.

Why does Brooke own so many coats? Why does she wear a different one every time she leaves the house? Why doesn’t she have any friends and why does she only hang out with her sister and niece? Why does she, a teacher, appear to only have one student who she keeps running into around town? Why does she allow a 14th century knight to move into her guesthouse? Why do the pair of them spend an entire day within this movie’s timeline binge-watching OTHER NETFLIX CHRISTMAS MOVIES? Is there a Netflix...

That’s a good message, an important one even. But instead of cutting through the sweet with a little something sharp,just keeps laying on the cranberry sauce thicker and thicker to hide the fact that there’s a big, stuffed turkey underneath. Still fun to watch, but maybe save this one for after you’ve binged on all the other Netflix Christmas movies.
