I know that a lot of people hate this film but I really like it. Two neighbours get into a competition to have the best Christmas lights. Things quickly escalate as the Christmas spirit quickly fades. There are plenty of very funny moments especially from an in form and slightly maniacal Danny Devito. I thought the supporting cast was great especially Matthew Broderick as the rival to Devito. The humour is at times cruel and maybe this is one of the reasons the film doesn't appear to be much loved. However it makes a difference to the usual Christmas films and I loved the over the top climax to the film as the rivalry spirals out of control. Although I appear to be in a minority, this is one Christmas film that I like to watch every year.

Very cute movie about two neighbors (Danny DeVito and Matt Broderick) who try to out-do one another as 'The Christmas Guy' on their block by lavishly decorating their houses during the yuletide.Lots of great scenes like when newly arrived neighbor Danny introduces himself to Matt and winds up taking Matt's morning newspaper and cup of coffee. Also when Danny can't understand the conversation when Matt starts to "talk weird". Kristin Chenoweth is sweet as Danny's wife while lots of charming moments helps make this a holiday staple for the Christmas season.Recommended for the entire family.
