A Christmas Karen movie review
2 min readDec 6, 2023
IN A NUTSHELL:
As soon as I heard this title, I was intrigued.
Karen is an entitled middle-aged woman whose demanding nature has alienated her neighbors and family. After a series of instances displaying her privilege and prejudice, Karen receives an ‘intervention’ by some unconventional spirits.
THINGS I LIKED:
- I hate never seen Michele Simms in anything before. She did a great job painting the “Karen” we’ve all come across over the years.
- Each of the ghosts was unique and entertaining.
- I love segways! It always makes me laugh when someone rides one in a movie.
- Entertaining special effects.
- The humorous dialogue made me laugh on the inside and outside at times.
THINGS I DIDN’T LIKE:
- It’s definitely a low-budget movie. I imagined how much better it could have been with a bigger budget and an A-list starlet in the role.
- There are some bad acting moments.
- You probably won’t recognize most of the actors in this.
- So many offensive moments that will make you cringe.
- So many missed opportunities in the script.
TIPS FOR PARENTS:
- Profanity
- Some crude references.
- Crude conversation in a bathroom
- Lots of alcohol
- Racist comments
- The ghost of Christmas Past is a Black transvestite.
