THE CHRISTMAS CHRONICLES II which will arrive to
Netflix November 25th directed by

Tyrese Gibson) and his son Jack (
Jahzir Bruno). Unwilling to accept this new version of her family, Kate decides to run away. But when a mysterious, magical troublemaker named Belsnickel threatens to destroy the North Pole and end Christmas for good, Kate and Jack are unexpectedly pulled into a new adventure with Santa Claus (
Kurt Russell).
I never did watch part 1 of The Christmas Chronicles. I really need to do so because I heard it was a super cute movie. I'm sure part 2 will be charming as well.
ReplyDeleteIt was a nice movie, a bit of the old school festive adventure, but it had a bit too much jail and crime scenes and such things inappropriate for kids. I found about 30% of the movie fun and the rest were boring, inappropriate jail scenes, not something I need from a family Christmas movie. The kids were cute, though.
DeleteThat's too bad. I heard nothing but great things about this one. I'll still watch it as my kids are older so I don't need to sensor their viewing habits, but I'll for sure not watch this with the nieces and nephews when they come to visit.
DeleteYep, it is safe for your kids, not for the little ones.
DeleteLouis VI? Great idea, and fantastic actress!
ReplyDeleteShould be superfun, hope it will be outstanding in the end.
DeleteI’m looking forward to both of these, especially to see Jayne Seymour again! Haven’t seen her in anything since Dr. Quinn. My mom would watch that show on repeat my whole childhood just to drool at the wolf man!
ReplyDeleteShe still looks very much frozen in time.
