The Town That Banned Christmas (2006)

What an odd film.

Literally every inch of this film points to it being deserving of the lowest of ratings. The acting is wooden at best, the title is ill-fitting, the direction is awful and the dialogue is poor. Yet, it kinda works in a weird, basement level sorta way?

I'm not saying it's good, I didn't enjoy it, but once the credits rolled I didn't feel anything negative towards it - which is a surprise, given the aforementioned. It does everything so averagely, that it pretty much levels out to create a poor but not terrible film - at least in my opinion.

I have little to no praise of it though. Some of the humour is alright, I guess. Matt McCoy and Adam Ferrara are the 'picks' of the cast, though that's just down to process of elimination. The (UK - US have a different one?) title is slightly misleading, given only a short snippet of this has anything to do with the banning of Christmas.

Overall, 'The Town That Banned Christmas' is all rather poor. I'm just surprised I didn't hate it.
