Christmas with the Kranks
When their only daughter Blair leaves the family nest, Luther and Nora Krank decide to book an island cruise to beat the yuletide blues and just skip the holidays.

60 of 152 · most liked firstBest: Klaus. Animation excellence. Worst: Christmas With the Kranks. Easily one of the most miserable Christmas movies I've ever seen. A movie where I hate every single character and wished the entire cast got wiped out by a meteorite
unlabelledView post →Watching Christmas with the Kranks and the whole plot of this movie is “wouldn’t it be fucking nuts if someone went on a vacation for Christmas??? They should be punished.”
unlabelledView post →This movie looked at Christmas With The Kranks and thought “what if the neighbors had even fewer boundaries and were somehow more obsessed with Christmas?”
unlabelledView post →Watching Christmas with the Kranks and this movie is bizarre Everyone is losing their minds because one family decided to do a cruise instead of Christmas. Like, this is some fascist dystopia where your neighbors assemble a mob to demand that you yield your Christmas decorations to them
unlabelledView post →Christmas with the Kranks is such a funny movie. Got the neighbors and Dewey from Malcolm In The Middle applying pressure over a snowman decoration 😂

unlabelledView post →Christmas with the Kranks. Got dragged to see it against my will, and dear God was that the most agonizing experience I've ever had in a theater. I think its the only time I've left a movie genuinely mad.
unlabelledView post →It’s hard to watch any Christmas movie or any TV/Movie with Tim MAGAt Allen knowing who he supports. Really sad because I loved Christmas with the Kranks

unlabelledView post →I think I have a few categories here. The Most Negative Feelings I've Had For Any Motion Picture Of Any Description: jar_guy.avi. Most Incompetent Attempt At A Feature Length Cinema Movie: I don't even know the movie's name; I caut a little bit of it on Rifftrax or Cinematic Titanic or something, and I swear it's below Birdemic. Birdemic bothered to shoot on location. This movie was apparently shot entirely in front of a green screen with a few bits of office furniture. It was apparently…

unlabelledView post →CHRISTMAS WITH THE KRANKS (Roth, 2004) is a Christmas movie
unlabelledView post →Best - Scrooged, a genuinely really cool reinterpretation of Christmas Carol with really impressive costume designs Worst - Christmas With The Kranks, just a genuinely deeply unpleasant movie about awful people with no redeeming qualities and a terrible script to go along with
unlabelledView post →Tonights movie. Yep watching Christmas with the Kranks. It's a hilarious movie and definitely good for a laugh #filmsky #christmaswiththekranks #christmas
unlabelledView post →Happy Saturday all, and happy November, which is my birthday month! I have gym already done, and just at horse riding with my daughter, then later my wife and I are starting our Christmas movie marathon with Christmas with the Kranks. Hope you're all having a good one.
unlabelledView post →I think my favorite Christmas movie is either Christmas with the Kranks or Gremlins 🤔
unlabelledView post →I can accept polar express because kids love trains. My kids sure love that movie for some reason. But I draw the line at Christmas with the Kranks. Somehow the worst Tim Allen Christmas vehicle and that’s including the Santa Clause franchise post the first movie
unlabelledView post →Christmas with the Kranks is a legit cult-centered horror movie masquerading as a family fun Christmas film, and no one will ever be able to convince me otherwise.
unlabelledView post →Today’s bad holiday movie is Christmas with the Kranks
unlabelledView post →I hate Christmas with the Kranks, spiritually evil movie

unlabelledView post →First Holiday movie I'm watching is Christmas with the Kranks
unlabelledView post →I love the movie "Christmas with the Kranks" mostly due to it's wild representation of Chicago
unlabelledView post →Best - Home Alone Worst - Christmas with the Kranks (I also agree The SANTA Clause is not great) (Also a reminder that Die Hard is more of a Christmas movie than a Wonderful Life is)
unlabelledView post →Christmas with the Kranks is a movie about how you should always conform to the whims of society and never do whatever you might actually want to. No wonder this movie has a 5% on Rotten Tomatoes it's dogshit.
unlabelledView post →What is your most despised holiday movie? Mine's easy: Christmas with the Kranks. There is something deeply twisted at the heart of this movie, and the fact that nobody who made it seemed to notice disturbs me.

unlabelledView post →The guy who directed Christmas with the Kranks is the guy responsible for changing the title of The Exorcist III to “The Exorcist III” and adding an exorcism to the movie
unlabelledView post →Guys! I am ecstatic to have found this out! On Instagram, I left a comment on a post from Kevin Chamberlin talking about a film he was in, that being Christmas with the Kranks! Some time later, I found out he actually LIKED my comment! Oh my gosh! I love him so much!
unlabelledView post →We watched Christmas With the Kranks this morning, and I know you're supposed to just kinda "go with it" in cheesy Christmas movies, but the union man inside me never shuts up. The magic of Christmas is money. And if you don't have it, sorry, no "magic" for you. Anyway, I like the movie.
unlabelledView post →Christmas with the Kranks is such a great movie :3
unlabelledView post →Someone recommended I watch 'Christmas with the Kranks' and that movie pissed me off so bad. Don't get me wrong, it was funny but I was flabbergasted. So many colorful adjectives would have flown out my mouth at my neighbors.
unlabelledView post →watched part of Great Outdoors (I think it's called? A John Candy/Dan Ackroyd movie) but could NOT with Christmas with the Kranks because Tim Allen "reads" as too mean-spirited for me to want to watch him. trying to watch a little news but oh no. maybe I see if there's a cartoon on
unlabelledView post →God Christmas with the Kranks sucks so fucking much, nothing redeeming about that movie at all
unlabelledView post →Oh my sweet summer child… I’m surprised this isn’t talked about more. The FBI, as well as the globalist Hollywood elite, _forced_ Santa to star in the film _Christmas with the Kranks_ under the pseudonym _Tim Allen_. This was a successful smear campaign to sew doubt in the public’s belief that Tim Allen _was_ Santa Clause. Of course, Santa wasn’t actually in that movie. Well, not his physical self at least. We are all lead to believe that deepfake technology is a new phenomena, but it’s usage…
unlabelledView post →Thankfully I have never seen Christmas with the Kranks!! And because Tim Allen is a terrible person, I surely never will But David Krumholtz did a stellar performance as Bernard in that movie and I can quote his scenes verbatim
unlabelledView post →Not the worst Tim Allen Christmas movie at least (That honor belongs to Christmas with the Kranks)

unlabelledView post →Boyfriend asked to watch Christmas with the Kranks (a movie I notoriously hate) and I (unwisely) agreed. This is truly *the most* ridiculous Christmas movie in existence. *NONE* of it makes sense. *Why* do the neighbors care so fucking much?? Who gives a shit how *other people* choose to celebrate?!
unlabelledView post →Christmas with the Kranks is an underrated Xmas movie. In this thesis, I will…
unlabelledView post →A 20 years later sequel to Christmas With The Kranks has so much potential. And by “potential” I mean it should be a near scene-for-scene recreation of the first film
unlabelledView post →Concerned about my sister studying film when she doesn't care for animation and says Christmas with the Kranks is "great" and "a classic"
unlabelledView post →What’s up with the Grinches who are bitching about TCM’s Christmas movie selection and schedule this year. These are the same movies they air every year and air the same amount of times every year. I’d rather watch these repeatedly than Christmas with the Kranks on AMC.

unlabelledView post →Close reading of The Christmas with the Kranks script and the final film offers up a lot of intriguing ways to add more structure to something that doesn't have much structure
unlabelledView post →I’ve had both, after TIA’s. The CT scan is forgettable but I clearly remember the MRI. The staff played Christmas with the Kranks (with subtitles) as a distraction. When asked if I was ok and did I enjoy the film, I said ‘I’m fine, the film was awful but the soundtrack was great’.
unlabelledView post →Watching “Christmas with the Kranks” with my fam — haven’t seen this movie in YEARS. I hear a character say “Hi, Mr. Krank!” and my head snaps up because I would know that voice anywhere. Lo and behold it’s the one and only @kimrhodes.bsky.social! Miss you, Kim. Hope to see you in the new year ✨
unlabelledView post →I should have specified, if it wasn't made clear, this wasn't obvious fake animals being killed, they were ACTUAL birds, slaughtered right in front of the camera FOR REAL. But yeah, that in a Christmas film is out of place. At least Christmas With The Kranks only froze the fake cat.
unlabelledView post →Time to rewatch the best Christmas movie ever for the 10th time this year (Christmas With The Kranks).
unlabelledView post →lol I’m watching Christmas with the Kranks and I recognize the film location for the airport scene in the beginning of the film. It’s not LAX but instead, the LA convention center. 🤣
unlabelledView post →Okay thanks! I'm going to look for it. I think I haven't liked a new Christmas movie since Christmas with the Kranks.
