Christmas in Scotland (2023 TV Movie)
1/10
I'd Rather Drink from A Sewer

The acting is terrible and amateurish. So awful you want to vomit. Pathetic and Disgusting and Putrid trash.

The music gave me ear cancer.

The writing is so stupid it could have been done by an eight year old.

The sound is really distracting as every word was recorded in post production so that scenes where people are farther away from the camera sound like they're the same distance away as people close to the camera. This might seem nitpicky, but it's off putting and makes the production seem really low budget.

This so-called film approaches the subject matter in a way that might appeal to people who have no idea what kind of authority might or might not be wielded by a Scottish "laird," and the characters are a bunch of halfwits that should be locked up somewhere where they can't hurt themselves.

The typical "Magical American" movie, where the moron from New York comes to the rescue of the ignorant-people-who-live-across-the-ocean-where-they-speak-English-with-foreign accents. IN THIS VERSION, THE AMERICAN GIRL TEACHES THE LOCAL VILLAGERS ABOUT THEIR HISTORY!!! Yes, you read that correctly.

I've scraped more interesting gretch off the bottom of my shoe in a filthy roadside latrine.

I absolutely hated this movie and only watched it because my mom liked it. She's elderly and frail of mind as well as body, so I have to give her some latitude here.
