Look, the numbers don't lie: critics gave it a charitable 72%, but actual viewers landed at 40% on Rotten Tomatoes, 5.7 on IMDb, and a dismal 2.6 on Letterboxd. This is a paint-by-numbers holiday rom-com that tries to spice things up with a heist angle but ends up being neither funny enough, romantic enough, nor clever enough.

The premise—two struggling workers robbing a posh department store—could be a vehicle for social commentary about wealth inequality, but it's almost certainly just window dressing for a predictable will-they-won't-they romance. And even that doesn't seem to land, based on audience reactions.

If you're desperate for new holiday content and have literally watched everything else, sure, throw it on. But this is the kind of movie that'll be playing in the background while everyone scrolls their phones. The 13+ rating is appropriate for content, but the bigger barrier is the boredom factor. There are dozens of better holiday movies—old and new—worth your time.
