Will LastChristmas have audience's hearts? Read the review:
It's at the point when two mutually infatuated strangers break into an empty skating rink, gliding gracefully around while the rink's sound system magically plays something appropriate, that a movie lover of a certain age and background might realize that Paul Feig'sisn't a strangely off-target Yuletide romance: It's a gender-flipped remake of 1980's Olivia Newton-John vehicleEmilia Clarke plays the troubled artist who has lost touch with her own gifts; Henry Golding is...
To her horror, she may soon have to move back in with her family, finally answering the countless messages left by her suffocating mother Petra . Petra is an immigrant who fled Yugoslav wars around 1999, and is still haunted by those memories. Her effect on her daughter is summed up by the ringtone the latter has assigned to her phone calls: Fine Young Cannibals' 1989 hit "She Drives Me Crazy.
But Tom keeps showing up, swinging by on his bike until she goes wandering with him. Behavior Feig and Golding seemingly intend to be charming may come off to some viewers as weirdly condescending: Tom keeps insisting that Kate "look up" to see the things she walks by every day — a mildly amusing bit of street art, say, or the narrowest alley in London.
Kate does wind up, after some especially careless drunken misbehavior, having to move back home. Mom isn't nearly as bad as everyone makes her out to be, but she is something of a one-note downer, fond of breaking into dirge-like folk songs from the old country and worrying that Brexit signals a return to hard times.
