    I can't be the only person that thinks it's sheeeiittee. The missus has just told me I am.

    The film or the mischievous doll that creates havoc in your house in the run up to Christmas?

    Can’t stand the film

    Will Ferrell isn’t funny.

    Just this second been discussing it! So bad it's good. About to watch Hot Frosty, which I'm expecting very little from.

    If anyone is looking for a good Christmas film, Click and Collect is absolutely brilliant.

    For kids it's brilliant. It has simple humour in it and childish jokes. For families it has a heartwarming message, humour and a flowing storyline too.

    For adults it's a little immature in my opinion which is why a lot of adults don't like it but if you want to just enjoy a bit of a laugh and an easy to watch movie then you cant go far wrong really. Also if you are an adult who watched it as a child it brings back memories.

    I think of it as the Saturday night takeaway of Christmas films. It isn't deep or intellectual but for people needing or wanting an escape it ticks all the boxes quicker than a boots TV ad featuring a black Mrs Christmas.

    It’s strange isn’t it how people have very different views on movies. I have never watched Top Gun, and have absolutely no desire to, looks $hite, it probably is and the follow up is even worse. However, I do have a big dislike of Tom Cruise so that may be it :D

    Dont like Will Ferrell, everything I've watched with him in it, he basically plays the exact same character!
