yeah it’s predictable and clichéd like every other netflix rom-com but hear me out... emma roberts
you know in the sims when you get the option to watch a rom-com on tv and it's just a bunch of random scenes that make no sense but you still watch it anyway? that's what this feels like
This movie is basically Madison Montgomery's endless hell loop in retail after apocalypse ended
starting to wonder if Netflix and BuzzFeed are secretly working together to crank out as many generic holiday-themed romance movies as humanly possible in order to get endless clicks on "Which [insert stupid title here] Character Are You?" quizzes. wouldn't be surprised if my theory ended up being proven true!
Someone you bring to special events and parties without the pressure of a relationship or sex? ... So a friend?
But honestly, you’re the only one I’d wanna go through chemo with…
I don’t know how the film managed to make ‘you’re the only one I’d wanna go through chemo with’ but it did. Holidate is a romcom film about two strangers agreeing to be each other’s partner after feeling sick of being single on every special holiday. Being single is not that bad, as you have all the time to yourself, but society put this immense pressure on single people to find a significant other as soon as possible and it’s really sickening, especially when even your family members pressure you into finding a husband material. The concept of a holiday date, while not a novel idea, might look…

so unbelievably bad that i need more of you to watch this. i dissociated and left the movie paused for some time, completely forgetting that i was netflix party-ing with friends, while the chat was like "kristen hello?????"
ok also i need to write this down so i don't forget this was real?? <mild spoiler ahead>: emma roberts shits her pants and then the dude helps her wash poop off her back in a kinda sensual bath scene where he realizes he's in love with her????? sos
Dear Emma Roberts,
Leverage your relationship to your wildly successful aunt to get better roles. I promise it's worth it.
Sincerely,
Sally Jane Black
watched with grandma and we both really enjoyed it, very cute and fun!!! also emma channeled madison montgomery in that halloween costume for a second (before she put the hat on) which was something very personal to me.
That was so incredibly stupid, the supermarket scene was easily the worst, but Emma in that green wig was nice
Wat op het eerste zicht een zoveelste kerst film leek, was uiteindelijk een leuke chick flick! Emma Roberts altijd leuk om naar te kijken, alsook haar zus in de film die een vaste rol speelt in grey's anatomy was het leuk om haar eens iemand anders te zien spelen. Echt aangenaam verrast
There’s an extra half-star on my rating just for the Dan Lauria cameo. Otherwise, both leads are likeable enough here, but this is not a good movie.
Directed by John Whitesell, Holidate stars Emma Roberts as Sloane and Luke Bracey as Jackson in the lead. The movie revolves around Sloane, a young independent lady who meets Jackson and plans for a holidate - Yes, they'll be each other's dates on every holiday for as long as they're both single. The film follows with how Sloane and Jackson attend a few holiday dates together and build their relationship. Emma Roberts and Luke Bracey share a cute chemistry and have given their best. Decent performance from the supporting cast too. Holidate manages to pack in almost every cliche in the rom-com movies. With a predictable story line, Holidate has nothing new to offer, but still a watchable movie with colorful visuals and good performance from the lead. Go for it if you're a fan of rom-com movies.
I have such a soft spot for formulaic rom coms. So this didn’t disappoint. Is it amazing film making? No but it’s not pretending to be and that’s why I love rom coma.
