Seth Rogen, Anthony Mackie and Joseph Gordon-Levitt are three not-so-wise men in this R-rated Christmas comedy. These lifelong best friends hit their annual Eve tradition – potentially for the last time. Co-stars Michael Shannon (Man of Steel), Lizzy Caplan (The Interview) and Jillian Bell (22 Jump Street) and directed by Jonathan Levine (50/50, The Wackness).

A tradition started by two college students to distract their pal from the death of his parents forms the backbone of this yuletide yuck fest. As comedy filmmaking luck would have it, what transpires is essentially a drug-fueled pub crawl caper, Harold and Kumar-like as it follows its leads in search of a mythical Christmas party and, well, weed.

Funny, cynical, and warm in all the right ways, this could finally be the Christmas movie for people who hate Christmas movies.

Hardly a Christmas miracle, but it’s good for a laugh or two. And that’s not a bad way to get into the holiday spirit.

Surprisingly, for a movie this ephemeral, the closing sequences... are actually quite touching.

Hammy and crude and more baked than a fruitcake, but with a sweetly squishy holiday heart at its center.
