Buddy has one goal this Christmas and that is to make his home visible from space; using all the lights he is able to get his hands on Buddy tries just that. Dr. Finch on the other hand is becoming jealous of Buddy\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s newfound glory within the town and the two start a very strange and avid rivalry. Who will Christmas end for these two neighbors, only time will tell. <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"3\"><font face=\"Times New Roman\">The filming on this movie wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t anything special, nothing truly stood out in it as it seems to be your typical holiday film. The best part about the technical side of this film was the house that Danny DeVito\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s character lives in, the lights and sound display they set up was something amazing, that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s really about it. <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"3\"><font face=\"Times New Roman\">This film receives Two Skipped Beats on the Roger Moore movie scale; it was a great family\/holiday film. I think it has a little something everyone can enjoy in it. One thing is for sure the casting director did do a wonderful job in casting the Hall children and Kristin Chenoweth looked ravishing as always in her portrayal as Mrs. Hall. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a definite for the family side of the collection. As always be afraid, be very afraid, especially around the holiday season cause you never know what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s going to happen. <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><font size=\"3\"><font face=\"Times New Roman\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.popmatters.com\/images\/news_art\/d\/deck-the-halls-poster.jpg\" \/><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Directed By: John Whitesell Written By: Matt Corman, Chris Ord, Don Ryhmer Score: Technical: 80, Acting: 85, Story: 80, Overall Score: 82% Dr. Steve Finch a small towns local optometrist is the towns man of Christmas that is until Buddy Hall moves in across the street.
