honestly, I couldn't enjoy this movie. the female leads personality honestly passes me off. the male lead is manageable.
the plot is the typical Christmas story but more boring.
I didn't enjoy it at all

Don't get why people are critical of this. It's exactly what a Christmas film should be and more importantly it's original and quaint and totally British humour.
I've laughed and chuckled and laughed again. A great cast who delivered every line perfectly timed.
For me this is my new favourite Christmas film.
Love the way they've weaved the class story with a simple chance last second decision which alters so many lives.
Even the dog delivers a storming performance.
If you want convoluted cultured entertainment then this isn't for you but if you want to chill out with a glass of something maybe even a sherry 😉 and just be entertained and chuckle then this is yours and definitely my kind of Christmas movie.

We watched "Your Christmas or mine?" last night, with high hopes but a little trepidation. We need not have worried. It's fun, ridiculous and charming. And tons better than "Last Christmas" or "The Holiday" both of which have a similar feel but, for me, fail to ballance the cheese with charm. The acting in the scene in very first minute is abysmal, but quickly settles down. If you want a simple festive seasonal pick me up, this fits the bill nicely. I think the expression is " suspend disbelief" and it'll be enjoyable. It deserves neither the 3 star reviews nor the 10 star reviews, but is certainly watchable and I will happily watch again one day. Oh and if you want another feel good Christmas fix, try "Click and Collect".

Surprisingly entertaining. The storyline is relateable. We all have family dynamics to deal with around Christmas time.
Great acting from the cast. Asa Butterfield and Cora Kirk hold their own as the leads. A great role for Daniel Mays. Alex Jennings seem to by typecasted for the English posh roles, especially after playing the abdicated King in The Crown.
In parts, the film is a little bit cliche and unrealistic. Cheesy (yet likeable) soundtrack. And when was the last time in snowed in England on Christmas Day?
It's not going to win a BAFTA, but it's a nice and easy watch to enjoy with your family, I would highly recommend.

To start off I'd like to say that this is such a heartwarming story . This story is about a young couple who have just stared dating and they don't really know a lot about each other , so they are being spilt up in an unusual way for Christmas to get to know each others family . And then the most interesting part begins. To be honest,I just love British Christmas movies. This film gave me same vibes as Love actually. I was crying and laughing and it made me feel so much better. It definitely brings Christmas mood. And it's not your typical Christmas movie about love,it's more about family . Recommend it to everyone who wants to spend a good time.

Your Christmas or Mine? Is a sweet romcom that will get you in the Christmas mood for sure.
It largely follows the tried and tested romcom formula, with the added twist that the two romantic leads are not actually on screen together for the majority of the film. Despite this I found myself quite invested in the relationship, and thought it was actually quite well thought out from a plot perspective.
Asa Butterfield and Cora Kirk put in two engaging and enjoyable lead performances, with some great comedic work from them both.
In terms of the plot, it is one of those romcoms where a lot of the conflict could be easily resolved if people actually spoke to each other, so it does feel a tad frustrating and tiresome at times. Other than that the plot is really rather enjoyable. It is nice and breezy for the most part, but with a few emotional moments that feel a little underdeveloped but still add a nice layer to the piece.
The pacing is pretty spot on, and it never felt like it is overstaying its welcome.
Overall a lovely Christmassy romcom. Unlikely to blow you away, but it does the job and will definitely keep you entertained.

I watched this film on a whim and really enjoyed it. You will guess the basic boy meets girl plot from the off, but it quickly takes an unexpected turn and that's when the interest really starts, followed by some nice plot twists throughout. The main protagonists have clearly come from different backgrounds and that's the main driver for the comedy and pathos within the story. The two families are socially poles apart. Pretty much a feel good film with a nice Christmas message. There are some great characters, and I'm sure there's a lot that viewers can identify with. Very funny at times and has a great cast.

In Brit Cristmas rom-com "Your Christmas Or Mine" a train mix-up & heavy snow has London students Asa Butterfield & gf Cora Kirk stranded over Xmas at each other's family homes. He's with her rogueish blue-collar mob (inc Daniel Mays & Angela Griffin) while she's at his cold, crusty, posh country pile (with Alex Jennings, Harriet Walker, David Bradley & Mark Heap). Both feel outta place & bullied as they learn secrets the other's kept from all concerned. Lighter than it sounds the silliness of writer Tom Parry's set-pieces out-weighs director Jim O'Hanlan's festive charm, and the performances are over-cooked. While not a total Xmas turkey, it's still distinctly mediocre.

Me and my wife tried to watch this. I like Sex Education, so I thought it could be good. Unfortunately, the plot and the actress are very bad. We watched it for 30 minutes then we gave up to watch a NBA game. I don't know, maybe it's a good movie for teenager or young adults, but it's definitely a "not watch" for people above 27. I don't have anything else to say, but I still need to write 208 characters, so feel free to stop reading this, cause I'm just going to fill the gap with nothing, like a Seinfeld episode, a bad one to be exact. Thank you for reading this until the end. Don't watch this movie.
