Kate harumphs around London, a bundle of bad decisions accompanied by the jangle of bells on her shoes, another irritating consequence from her job as an elf in a year-round Christmas shop. Tom seems too good to be true when he walks into her life and starts to see through so many of Kate’s barriers. As London transforms into the most wonderful time of the year, nothing should work for these two… But sometimes, you gotta let the snow fall where it may, you gotta listen to your heart and you gotta have faith. (Universal Pictures US)

"Last Christmas, I gave you my heart / But the very next day, you gave it away / This year, to save me from tears / I'll give it to someone special." Paul Feig's latest film skirts the arc of his previous works, and that's not a bad thing at all. Emma Thompson has written an incredibly sweet and touching screenplay that might well have been lost in the grey averages if it weren't for a rather surprising plot twist at the end that certainly didn't leave me cold. The cast was excellent, from the lovely Emilia Clarke, to the likeable Henry Golding, to the goofy Emma Thompson and the graceful Michelle Yeoh. Add to that a soundtrack by George Michael and you are treated to an incredibly easygoing film that, while at times it attacks the sensibilities and tries to be overly tolerant and multicultural, still carried me along for a hundred minutes in the cinema on this positive and warm wave of good-naturedness and love for my fellow man.

Provavelmente a comédia mais agradável (isto é, não barulhenta, não irritante, e não agressiva) de Paul Feig até à data, mas ainda mal chega à média. Um romance inspirado na canção de Natal conduzido por um cliché cansado sobre uma heroína insensível, egoísta e irresponsável que, graças ao amor e conselhos do homem certo, se torna uma pessoa melhor, reconcilia-se com a sua família e finalmente começa a gostar de si mesma, aparece do princípio ao fim como se estivesse formada por motivos e cenas emprestadas de outros filmes que eram consideravelmente melhores. É possível apreciar os atores tentadores e a atmosfera de Londres luminosa, mas, em geral, o filme é dececionado não só pela sua falta de humor não primitivo (toda a comédia relativa à personagem principal consiste em andar e cair no lixo ou ter um cocó de pássaro na cara, com muito pouco do filme sendo verdadeiramente engraçado, em geral), mas também pelo seu final incrivelmente estúpido e de kitsch (e infelizmente altamente previsível).

You can’t count on every new English Christmas comedy that comes to the cinema to be the new Love Actually. Last Christmas is a totally different type of movie but it is able to set the Christmas mood just as well. However it is apparent that this movie was inspired by a song. I would be interested in what George Michael would say about it. Moreover it was Emilia Clarke who did this movie good because she is able to bring colors even to a black and white, static pointless short movie. Nevertheless, the fairy tale mood is overdone here and that is a shame. Last Christmas comes across as a quite nice movie but it won’t became a TV Christmas classic.

A sweet Christmas romance with the adorable Emilia Clarke and the likeable Henry Golding with well working chemistry between them. Too bad Paul Feig didn't lean more on the humour, but it's still fun to watch and the Christmas spirit oozes joy. What pulls the film to a slightly above-par level is the unexpected final twist, which is both very original and welcome in the rom-com genre. 6/10.

Well, I’ll be honest with you, this wasn’t exactly the kind of film to watch in May. But I didn't mind, my imagination is still working properly, so when the Mother of Dragons first entered the toy store, I instantly got into the Christmas mood. I didn’t find any traces of comedy, more of a romantic melodrama with a moral lesson set in the multicultural London. I wasn't thrilled, but it was okay. 3*-
