The Holiday: Nancy Meyers Impresses Herself
Manage episode 349995138 series 3344718
The Flicky Podcast reviews The Holiday only after Christopher complains about Pentatonix, shares a story about the pleasures of using mass transit, discloses how he's become obsessive about Talking Heads, and quizzes John on 70s cinema. The boys finally discuss how The Holiday has a solid starting point, only to fall apart by the end due to bad pacing, little character development, and a plot that doesn't know what the main story is. John and Christopher recognize its likability and charm despite the film's glaring flaws. They pose important questions about The Holiday: Is it a Christmas, or holiday, movie at all and what is this movie even about?
