When their only daughter Blair leaves the family nest, Luther and Nora Krank decide to book an island cruise to beat the yuletide blues and just skip the holidays. But their decision to boycott tradition has the whole neighborhood in an uproar, and when Blair calls on Christmas Eve to announce a surprise visit with her new fiancée, the Kranks have just twelve hours to perform a miracle and pull themselves and their neighbors together to throw the best celebration ever!
Editor's Verdict
"Christmas with the Kranks is structurally a quintessential Christmas movie. The entire plot revolves around the activities (or lack thereof) of a specific 24-hour period leading up to Christmas Eve, focusing heavily on themes of community, tradition, and last-minute celebration."
