Impressively, writers Tim Hill (SpongeBob SquarePants) and Jeff Morris (The Honor System) do Lifetime's meme-centric movie a great service by making it constantly snarky and self-aware. Everyone is in on the joke that it's ridiculous, and the movie plays up to that while still executing a workable plot.
You'll probably laugh a few times, but within a half hour, you'll understand why there hasn't been a rush to make a Nyan Cat or David After Dentist film.
Worst Christmas Ever seems to be under the impression that if it continually lamp-shades its own awfulness--the inane plot, the atrocious acting and production values, even that it is a Lifetime movie--that it will somehow make up for it. But that’s not how math works.
The Grumpy Cat TV Christmas movie is here, about a year too late, and it’s as mindlessly soul-sucking as one might expect (hope?) a Grumpy Cat TV Christmas movie to be.
The best way to describe the film as a whole would be if Bill And Ted’s Excellent Adventure, Home Alone, Garfield, icanhascheezburger, product placement, commercial breaks, outdated cultural references, suburban community theater, and acid had a baby.
