After bowler Roy Munson swindles the wrong crowd and is left with a hook for a hand, he settles into impoverished obscurity. That is, until he uncovers the next big thing: an Amish kid named Ishmael. So, the corrupt and the hopelessly naive hit the circuit intent on settling an old score with Big Ern.

Editor's Verdict

❌NO

"Kingpin's plot revolves entirely around professional bowling, hustling, and revenge. There are no discernible references to Christmas in the setting, plot mechanics, themes, iconography, or resolution. It is definitively not a Christmas movie."
