I love Christmas time. The tree , the presents , the snow , Christmas songs , jolly moods and the delicious food…but without one thing...Christmas is incomplete. There has to be Christmas movies!

One of my favourite Christmas films is Deck The Hall. I bought this DVD a few weeks back to get me in the mood for the ever-so-fast approaching festive season. The DVD cost me £5.99 from play.com

Deck The Halls is an American family comedy film. It was released in the United Kingdom on the first of December 2006. The movie was directed by John Whitesell. Running time of the movie is ninety three minutes.

Steve Finch wants his kids to have the best ever Christmas. So when his daughters discover My Earth (which is the same as Google Earth I suppose) , they find out that their house is missing from the map that shows up everything from Space. So , Steve has a plan. He decorates his house with as many lights and decorations as much as he can. Will the 'Space Map' pick up his house now ? Watch Deck The Halls to find out!

This is one jolly Christmas film ; one which I thoroughly enjoyed watching ; as did the whole family. It's a real fun film to watch with the family and you can guarantee that everyone will be lost in the whole festiveness of it all. Kids will love it as well as adults.

I have read a few reviews regarding how poor this movie is. I can't disagree more! What is there not to love about this film ? It's Funny ,it's heart-warming and above all it's Christmassy. What more could you want from a Christmas film ? Some people have called this movie 'predictable' but to me , so what , it's a Christmas film!

One criticism I have is that Dani De Vito's character is a mechanic in this film , and so I kept thinking I was watching Matilda (for those of you who havn't seen Matilda , De Vito's character owns a garage). Although I preferred his character in this movie a lot more than his character in Matilda : he isn't so mean!

This is a great film to watch in the run up to Christmas! Adults and Kids alike will love it!

Thanks For Reading!
