Christmas as Usual - Moview Review

This Christmas season, I'm going to review 10 Christmas movies in 10 days. And today we're going to talk about the movie - Christmas as Usual, starring Kanan Gill and Ida Ursin-Holm. Available to stream on Netflix. 


The movie, I believe, is a good attempt but lacks flavour! The story revolves around a couple Jashan and Thea, who head to Norway to celebrate Christmas with Thea's Norwegian family. 


Since Jashan has Indian roots, he has a hard time understanding and adjusting with Thea's traditional family. 


The movie's premise is actually good and the beginning seemed promising with punches in the right places. But Kanan's screen time reduces as we get further into the movie, making it rather dull and bland.  


Even though the dialogues were mediocre and failed to leave an impact onscreen, Kanan did a great job delivering them though he still needs some work refining his art as an actor. Ida on the other hand is flawless.


As Christmas movies go, I'd expect a little more magic and drama. Which is what I missed throughout but overall, I'd say it is a decent watch and rate it 6/ 10


If you've watched it already, tell me what you think about it in the comments below!
