Brandee, Jack, Bella and I watched the movie Four Christmases (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0369436/) yesterday and this will be my first movie review in the Comedy genre. This was a good flick if you are looking for a decent comedy. It was very slap-tastic at points but humorous and a well thought-out plot.
