I spent the majority of this film arguing with my partner about when its appropriate to turn off Christmas lights. She was adamant that all our lights needed to be switched off before 11pm, I argued that turning the ‘street level’ lights off at 11pm was courteous, but that our second floor lights (50x tiny LED ‘icicle bulbs’ spread over two windows) could stay on longer because the light they emmit isnt bright enough to illuminate past the window frame, and the light it DOES emmit creates a nice ambient tone in our recreation room…AND on top of that! Non of the houses in the surrounding area even HAVE a second floor…so even if the light DID break past the window frame (which it doesnt) it STILL wouldnt be a problem, because theres no properties in the area at the same height as the lights to be impacted by them.

This arguement lasted the full 79 minutes, didnt have a resolution and im now in the dog house for being ‘inconsiderate’ to people who dont exist. Not ONLY was it about as much attention as this film deserved, I found the argument more pleasurable. And I will say this, if you plan on arguing with your spouse, having ‘Mission to Moscow’ running in the background is the PERFECT backing track.

Literally if it wasnt for the frankly Jaw Dropping (non endearing) perforamances from Christopher Lee and Ron Pearlman. This would have been a total and utter waste of my time, and probably the worst comedy i’d have seen in the last 15 years. Mission to Moscow blows.
