A movie misunderstood

Unsure for the negative reviews, this movie is a moment of reflection and the sad realisation that life moves fast and it won't be appreciated until it's too late.Yes, it's about a dysfunctional family and equally dysfunctional characters and no, granted there isn't jiggle bells at every turn, tinsel dripping from the mantelpiece but there is absolute warmth and feel good factor about this one. Not every Christmas is about having all the trimmings it's about people and the pressures - A wonderful life broke that cliche. If you've not watched it, give it a go, if you've misunderstood it, give it some attention. Summary, a feel good 'alternative' Christmas movie.

This movie had potential...

OK: I think they did a decent job with this movie, it did keep my attention and there were a couple funny moments, along with a few sweet ones. I think they did a good job on the location and feeling of this movie. Plus they showed lots of pooches, which is always a plus in my book.Meh: One thing I just could not get over was Olivia Wilde's horrible character, I am sorry, were we supposed to like her or even care? The woman was awful. There is no way a guy, let alone a stranger, would put up with her borderline-hate filled comments. Putting down his religion, his service and father. Also, it is hard to care about someone who admits to sleeping with a married man and seems to have no qualms about it. Then the back and forth of the guy "leaving" only to come right back within minutes, after more of her verbal combative and rude comments. I hate it when they make characters so cynical and emotionally cut off for whatever fill in the blank moment, but this ONE stranger can thaw their icy heart in a matter of days/weeks...in this case HOURS. Then at the end when she dashes to find him? SHE STRAIGHT UP KNOCKS OVER SOMEONE IN A HOSPITAL GURNEY?!?!?! Runs smack dab into about 7 people, one carrying a beautiful flower bouquet, what if these people were going to see their dying loved ones?? Hated this character and woman, awful, awful, awful.Few other things I thought were pretty dumb: Teenagers literally slapping tongues together - stupid.The relationship between the old guy and waitress - what?Marissa Tomei's character "calling" everything about a total stranger and hitting it all on the head.Marissa Tomei's character being Diane Keaton's sister??? They are like 25 years about, she could be her daughter, but in the flashbacks they are like 4-7 years apart? Yeah, right.Diane Keaton and John Goodman's characters that allllllll the sudden in the last 3 minutes decide they are madly in love again because she finally agrees to go to Africa, even though the whole movie is them and their broken relationship. Should have put more effort into that resolution.The end scene of everyone dancing in the fanciest hospital I have ever seen in my life. CORN BALL STEW.
