It has an issue or two, but for the majority: a good watch. <em>'Your Christmas or Mine 2'</em> doesn't improve upon its predecessor, it is compartively much weaker, but there are still some amusing moments in there, as well as a solid amount of festive vibes. The change of scenary concerned me early on in terms of how the film would turn out, but turn out well it does in fairness. Cast-wise it's pleasant, those onscreen are the movie's best feature in my opinion. Asa Butterfield and Cora Kirk are a suitable pairing, I mentioned in my review of the original that they didn't appear much together due to the plot but that isn't the case for the most part here. Those in support are swell, including Daniel Mays, Angela Griffin and David Bradley. Ram John Holder doesn't have much to do, though does have a very nice scene with Kirk late on. Jane Krakowski, meanwhile, is a positive addition. One, somewhat minor, issue I did have is the overdramatized plot device near the end. It goes from an overally happy story to all of a sudden becoming a soap opera, as the characters of Butterfield and Kirk hit major drama. It's so over the top, the film doesn't earn the sort of emotional beat that it was trying to portray. It didn't hit, but thankfully wraps up sharpish-ish. That aside, it's a film I'd recommend - especially if you like the first flick, obvs.
