BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
hoosier500-127-895871 Wept for the two dimensional characters and formulaic plot.Wept for any tenuous association with Christmas.I wept for the time wasted.Down to earth Gorgeous Rich Woman in love with Poor noble handsome guy is engaged to charming evil guy to please Grinch Daddy. Wedding averted and then true love realized at the wedding due to precocious, annoying brat.
Lee Eisenberg More of the out-of-control six-year-old who lives in the Plaza Hotel. It's hard to view "Eloise at Christmastime" as anything more than silly entertainment for the tykes. One might say that the title character suffers from affluenza, meaning that her privilege deprive her of the ability to be responsible (an infamous incident was the boy in Texas who was drinking and driving and accidentally killed some people, but his lawyer used the affluenza defense, and the boy got off).Naturally, the movie's cast caught my eye more than anything. Julie Andrews and Jeffrey Tambor we all know. Christine Baranski plays Leonard's overly analytical mom on "The Big Bang Theory" (she also appeared as the absentee mom in "The Birdcage" and the stepmother in "Into the Woods"). Jason Jones later became a correspondent on "The Daily Show" (he notably interviewed Iranian-Canadian journalist Maziar Bahari, the result of which was the plot of Jon Stewart's "Rosewater").And then there's the movie that Nanny and Sir Wilkes watch. It's "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians", nowadays known only because it got riffed on "Mystery Science Theater 3000".Basically, it'll be hard for anyone over the age of ten to authentically enjoy this.
kez0 Eloise at Christmastime is a Christmas movie my family watches every year, and it's one of the cutest movies. Just like Eloise, "I absolutely love Christmas!". Eloise is a six year old girl who lives at the Plaza Hotel in New York City with her Nanny. In this movie, we get to see Eloise and Nanny prepare for Christmas, a wedding, and Eloise's movie star mother's return home. Many times, people refer to Eloise as a brat, but this movie reveals that Eloise is kinder and more insightful than people give her credit for. As a six year old, she is better at noticing true love, and true heartbreak (in its many forms), before even the adults do. She realizes that not everything is as it seems, as in the case of a grumpy neighbor, and that Christmas should be spent with the people you care about. The scenery and costumes make this movie charming and innocent, just as Christmas for a child should be. Costumes are bright and colorful, the Plaza is decked out with skyscraper sized Christmas trees and twinkle lights galore, and everything is just a bit exaggerated (such as Eloise's wish list and shopping spree), making the movie just as fun and dramatic as Eloise herself.
everwood14_4 This was a very cute movie. Sophia did a very good job for her age. It got kind boring at times but i didnt want to miss it after see Eloise in the Plaza. This is a movie mostly for younger kids but there are jokes that little kids wont get but its still a very good movie.
