"I'll be home for Christmas" stars former child star Jonathan Taylor Thomas. JT2 is a teenaged boy who'd rather not go home for Christmas to be with his family, since his father remarried 10 months after his mother died (if this were Shakespeare,he'd be bemoaning that his father would be warming the marital bed while his mother is barely cold in her grave) His father bribes him with a Porsche- in the spirit of Christmas giving.

As if an answer to his prayers, JT2 gets beaten up by bullies&stranded in the desert in a Santa outfit. Jessica Biel has a thankless role as JT2's girlfriend. She gets to be pretty,and that's all,folks. JT2 encounters cattle, elderly Tom Jones fans, and so on. It all makes for a boring odyssey.

"I'll be home for Christmas" has the power to make the hapless reviewer into an Ebenezer Scrooge. February 1, 2008

I used to think this film was okay but it's really lame. He's going home only cause he wants a car, shows you how greedy people in america are about christmas. They only care about the material goods they get out of the overrated season. December 4, 2005
