IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT KIM GENTES MOVIE REVIEWS
The appearance of a movie in this review journal does not mean that the movie is endorsed by Kim. He writes reviews of movies that he saw that he recommends people avoid as well as movies that he considers worth seeing. Aside from just critical approval regarding the film, some movies may not be suitable for you or your family. You must make that kind of determination on your own, and stay true to your own convictions on what is appropriate to see. Some movies are well made, but have offensive or difficult subject matter that is questionable to many viewers. Again, the reviews listed here should not be your only filter for whether or not a film is appropriate for you and and your family.
Additionally, Kim has his own view on what movies are and why he thinks they are a worthwhile aspect of current culture to be investigated. You certainly don't have to agree with Kim on his viewpoints of movies, and he would be surprised if you did.
Kim's thoughts on movies -
Movies are the modern art "experience" of our culture. They are transmitted in many forms, on screens in theatres, DVDs, television and even computers. They are the merge of classical theatrical acting and modern day technical set and experience creation (effects). The reason I enjoy and watch lots of movies is that they not only entertain, they communicate the nuances of our society. Of course, some have nothing to do with culture, its just greedy corporations trying to produce profits. I am a guy, and as such am not the ideal audience for romantic comedies or 'chick fliks'. However I am also a husband, and domestic bliss (as well as common sense) compels me to at least review them...occasionally. For the most part, you will find I like (and therefor review a lot of ) action, drama, science fiction, suspense and similarly themed movies.

Summary: Love The Coopers is a waste of time. Do not see it. This is the most generous summary possible for a film of such low caliber.
Full Review: Plotless, aimless, emotionless, thoughtless dibble wrapped in pretentious philosophical cliches. It appears the answer to a Christmas movie in 2015 is to imagine 150 conversations with no humor, no acting, no character development, and no storyline all wrapped in a cast of great talent and exercising precisely none of it, and culminating in two apex moments involving a dog farting at a dinner table and a family dancing spontaneously (while hating one another) at an airport cafeteria. The best part of this film was, quite literally, the credit roll- which at least accomplished the purpose for which it was designed.
Save your money for Hunger Games latest or the upcoming Star Wars installment. Ignore me at your peril. The worst film I've seen in a very long time.
