Slapstick humor gets a full-body workout in Christmas with the Kranks. Critics were unanimous in their derision, and John Grisham must have gnashed his teeth over what studio-boss-turned-director Joe Roth did to his bestselling novel Skipping Christmas, to which this broad-stroked comedy bears little or no resemblance. The title characters are played by Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis, who decide to skip Christmas because their daughter's in Peru with the Peace Corps. Thus begins a rabid program of enforced conformity when their neighbors (led by Dan Aykroyd) coerce the Kranks into changing their holiday attitude--a change that comes easily when the daughter announces she'll be home for Christmas after all. Imagine if a suburban lynch mob said 'Have a Merry Christmas or we'll kill you,' and you'll get some idea of what spending Christmas with the Kranks is really like. And if you laughed at the frozen cat, you're probably on Santa's 'naughty' list. --Jeff Shannon

Rating:  - Funny, Cute and sweet!
I think any person can enjoy a Tim Allen movie.
A good family classic.
Check it out!
Rating:  - Funny, funny movie!
I loved the book Skipping Christmas by John Grisham and I don't know why they changed title for movie because I thought that great myself. The Kranks are alone this Christmas and decide to take off to a sunnier clime. It's hilarious watching them trying to squirm their way out of hanging decorations (their street is full of them and people can't believe they won't put them up like everyone else). They are kept busy trying to get their suntans started ahead of time and shopping for summer like clothes ... Read More
Rating:  - Great if you think Christmas is about bullying
The movie is about a middle aged couple who decide to 'skip Christmas' and go on a cruise.
When their neighbours find out the couple is relentlessly bullied and harrassed.
It is disgusting, I hate seeing people being bullied.
The movie has a supposed 'happy' ending, because they give in to their neighbours' demands and the neightbours reward their submission with 'kindness' BLARG.
I would've enjoyed the ending immensly if it included scenes with a U ... Read More
Rating: - Krank is a good name for these people
After watching this movie (I would have quit or hit fast forward but my husband was watching), all I could say was "That was about 90 minutes of my life that I will never get back. I think my IQ is a little lower now." While they tried to make a touching moment at the end, it was so lost in the rest of this mixed up, outrageous movie that it didn't matter. Even though the whole thing was ridiculous, the part at the end where Tim Allen is still upset because he didn't get his trip - even though his daughter ... Read More
Rating: - Christmas with The Kranks
I got this film for a whole penny. A national video chain was holding a great sale of movies for a penny and a dollar on Thanksgiving day. I viewed this movie before buying this dvd and I enjoyed the film. I watched it a few years later and I do not feel the same way, its still an enjoyable movie though. Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis skip Christmas for a year and everyone has a fit over it. Talk about respecting peoples privacy. Dan Akyroyd leds the neighborhood and trys to get them to understand why they'd ... Read More
