Sinopsis(1)
Consciente de que le espera otra Navidad solo, el rico ejecutivo Drew Latham decide regresar a la idílica casa de su infancia para recordar la época navideña con su familia. El único problema es que las personas que ahora viven en la casa no son la familia de Drew. Decidido a disfrutar de unas fiestas navideñas a la vieja usanza, soborna a sus nuevos "padres" dándoles una pequeña fortuna con la condición de que le dejen pasar las fiestas en su casa y finjan que es su hijo. Cuando los Valco ya empiezan a preguntarse si hay dinero suficiente para aguantar a Drew y su idea de cómo debe ser la Navidad, su auténtica hija, Alicia, vuelve a casa nada dispuesta a adoptar al nuevo ''hermano''. (Universal Pictures España)

Ben Affleck's latest flop, which our distributors prudently took their hands off after the overwhelming overseas reviews and zero audience response, is an unbelievable abomination. The story of a millionaire (Affleck) who feels lonely during the Christmas holidays and therefore hires a family of strangers to keep him company is a bunch of nonsense, trying in vain to be humorous, or at least to get a fleeting smile. I don't have anything against Affleck, but the title 'Surviving Affleck' would be more appropriate, because what he does here would put down even a hardened masochist. Apparently under the illusion that he has comedic talent, he overacts in an utterly disgusting way, and watching his mime gymnastics is perhaps even worse than medieval torture (must be seen in the original version). I almost felt sorry for him. I read an interview with Affleck somewhere where he said: "You know when I know something is wrong with my acting career? When I catch myself talking the producers into making a sequel to Daredevil.” Come on Ben, it's about time you started begging for Gigli and this 'swan song'.
