   Oh. What. Fun.

   Steve, John & Dave aren't going to jingle all the way, but they are going to have Oh. What. Fun! Every year hundreds of Christmas movies are released in the spirited hopes of becoming the next holiday classic! National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. Planes Trains and Automobiles. The Muppets Christmas Carol. Scroooged. The Grinch Who Stole Christmas. Home Alone. One of those movies this year is Amazon Prime’s family farce Oh. What. Fun. Spoiler alert – the title is ironic. Here’s the rapid recap to catch you up!  Here’s how Prime describes the movie:   Everyone is home for the holidays, clamoring for all the Christmas cheer only their mother can whip up. They can already smell the chestnuts roasting—or is that Mom’s hair on fire? From a New York Times bestselling author comes a laugh-out-loud short story for any mom who’d rather wreck the halls. Now a major motion picture from Amazon MGM Studios. Tyler, Channing, and Sammy Clauster have descended on their childhood home, with significant others and four-year-old twins in tow, for another good old-fashioned Christmas. Overwhelming holiday magic, as always, comes courtesy of their mom, Claire. They know she’s thrilled to cook, wrap gifts, decorate, accommodate, play games, overprepare every Christmas Eve Eve Eve tradition, and still let Dad be known as the Fun One. It’s her thing, right? Maybe the family should have paid closer attention. Because this year, something is a little off-key—and it’s not just the carols. This stars Michelle Pfeiffer, Dennis Leary, Chloe Grace Moretz, Felicity Jones, Dominic Sessa, Jason Schwartzman & is directed by Michael Showalter!
