DVD Reviews of Christmas in Connecticut (1992 TV Movie)
DVD Review: I was excited about watching it and relieved when it was over
Summary: 1 Stars
I love Christmas movies, and any movie that has even a minor Christmas theme to it I'm going to like at least a little. But this version of CHRISTMAS IN CONNECTICUT was a major disappointment. It's true I'm a huge fan of the original. But I was still prepared to enjoy this one and judge it on its own merits. I knew it was directed by Arnold Schwarzenegger and thought perhaps - being the multi-talented man that he is - he might have done a good directing job. But...I won't address that now. This movie has far more important things to gripe about.
The acting in this movie is sub-par at best but mostly way over the top. Failed attempts at comedy breaks revolve mostly around the son-in-law-to-be sporting a spiked mullet, leather jacket, and acting ambitions. So he is always in character practicing for his next big gig (preparing to play a serial killer). At one point he even grabs someone's shades and says (imitating the director's famous role), "I'll be back." This guy soon becomes the Jar Jar Binks of this movie, and it's likely you'll cringe every time one of his scenes appears and sigh with relief when its over.
Tony Curtis's performance is very overacted as well. And most of the film consists of bland and unauthentic "family" moments along with the awkward, forced romance which blossoms between Dyan Cannon and Kris Kristofferson.
This film has absolutely none of the delightful charm of the original. There are many great Christmas movies out there. Fortunately, there aren't that many duds. But this is one of them.
