• Quotes

  • "Christmas is supposed to be a time for joy. Little warmth emanates from Four Christmases. Even though an A-list cast is on hand throughout this 88 minute movie the sparks fail to fly off the screen in this late season entry."—OratoOrato: Movie Review: Four Christmases (November 21, 2008)

  • "The biggest artistic challenge facing first-time feature helmer Seth Gordon in Four Christmases was how to photograph co-stars Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon in the same frame, as he's about a foot and a half taller than she is. It's a dilemma the director never really solves in this oddly misanthropic, occasionally amusing but thoroughly cheerless holiday attraction that is in no way a family film, but will no doubt be mistaken for such by many unsuspecting patrons.Remainder of the script by a foursome of writers spins on the view held by these two smug, self-satisfied San Francisco professionals that family visits over Christmas are to be avoided at all costs."—VarietyVariety: Four Christmases Review (November 23, 2008)
