It opens with a random stranger trying to set up the protagonist with her neighbor’s nephew while in line at a deli. Off to a great start.
Also amused by them having every single Jewish food simultaneously on the table. There’s bagels and lox and kugels and blintzes it’s every holiday at once here.
ALSO THE LOVE INTEREST IS A DUNGEON MASTER?! omfg what?!
There’s a gag where he drops what she thinks is a box with an engagement ring in it and it’s actually his dungeons and dragons dice. Amazing. Also loving how many gay cousins are at this family gathering.
Everyone is so overly invested in Rachel’s love life in a way that’s so realistic… I can tell Jews wrote this…
Also I think the grandma in this movie is the same as one of the grandmas in the other hallmark Chanukah movie from last year about the competing delis….
BFEJJDIF THERE’S A FAMILY HEIRLOOM DREIDEL?!?!
I love how all these adult cousins playing dreidel and betting real money and acting like there’s strategy to this game.
They had DREIDEL LIGHTS?! Christmas lights but dreidels?!?! Around a shrubs??! And they set the house on fire?! No wonder their house caught fire they’re doing such an abodah with that goyishe nonsense
What’s weird is that there’s genuinely some good jokes in here that Vic Michaelis might have been involved in writing but they didn’t actually give any of the joke lines to Rachel so this movie stars a professional comedian but the professional comedian isn’t saying any jokes and is playing the completely unfunny straight man in this movie starring alongside D list hallmark actors far worse at acting and joke delivery
Oh okay as the time loop goes on Vic gets more and more unhinged and this movie is very fun omfg I’m loving this
