Critical MeMe

Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Holidate (2020)

Less than 10 minutes in, I was ready to give it up because the acting was so broad, I almost couldn't switch off my brain enough to enjoy the movie. But then the weed kicked in and I didn't mind nearly so much.

The story is fun: two singles decide to schedule standing dates for every holiday without any expectation of romance, which frees them up to be themselves and really have fun together. We all know where it's going, but that's kind of what you want in a holiday romance movie. But, even high, I could tell the acting was pretty terrible.
