Godmothered - Holiday Movie Musings

A Disney+ entry this year, with enchanted/magical themes that suit the holiday atmosphere—though not specifically holiday themed—is Grandmothered. Here is what I’ll say.

No, not a Christmas movie. So fail on that. But Jillian Bell is a freaking treasure, working the perfect homage to my favorite clueless-big-hearted characters the likes of Buddy the Elf and Giselle from Enchanted. She had us just rolling with laughter in perfectly delivered lines, some of which were clearly ad-libbed. It’s good to see Isla Fisher again, too (Confessions of a Shoppaholic), as well as Jane Curtin and June Squibb (don’t know the name? You’ll know her when you see and hear her.)

While I can’t recommend it as a holiday-specific romp, I must highly recommend it as a perfectly fun and funny movie to lighten your spirits and give you some excellent belly-laughs.

Recommend!
