Movie #2222 "A Christmas Story Christmas" - (amazon prime) this film is done with great respect and in homage to the first classic film "A Christmas Story" with Ralphie now grown up bringing his family of two kids back to his family home to spend the first xmas with his mom after his father died. His job is in flux, his kids are bullied, his mom is unhappy that dad isn't here, and there are other problems thrown his way, but there are scenes that are reminiscent of scenes from the original (like a cowboy dream) that are fun to re-watch.; however, there's a lack of energy in this one basically because of Ralphie, his character, and the actor who plays him. And the narration doesn't 't come close to the poignancy or the humor of the first, but like I said, this one has a lot of heart....and definitely shows respect for the original. I'd give it 4 out of 5.
