Title: Not funny. Waste of time. Distasteful. Boring. Awful.
Review: If the Kranks really did what they set out to do and skip Christmas, that would have been a good story. The end.Instead, they end up having to scramble to try & make Christmas "happen" for their daughter unexpectedly coming home. In other words - a typical stressful material holiday, instead of a celebration of friends, family, or even, gasp! Christ's birth. I agree - if you don't want to celebrate Christ's birth, if you don't want presents and holiday decorations and family time - skip it. Why torture yourself?It would have been a good story if they did this. Instead, the plot deteriorated into a very stupid, ridiculous and unrealistic dash to the finish line of "making Christmas happen."A completely unsatisfying and unfunny read. Threw it away so others wouldn't have the displeasure of reading it.
