Horrible Christmas Movie
I couldn't watch this more than about 20 min so it might get more woke further in but only thing I noticed was the Diversity casting of the black family lead with a evil white male boss. Acting is horrible all around. The writing is terrible. Genie pops out of the box after 2000 years and doesn't know anything about modern times but is speaking modern slang. Husband has to work late at his job and misses his daughters birthday so his wife leaves him! WTF! Even McCarthy who is usually good for at least some entertainment seems bored and completely uninterested in this. Pass on this holiday movie.

Funny. Fans of Melissa will enjoy it the most.
It's hard for me to find enjoyment in movies that feature marriages broken up by trivial issues. I could never get through Mrs. Doubtfire for that reason. A man gets caught up with a crisis at work, misses his daughter's 8th birthday party, and his wife leaves him over it. The bad guy is a middle-aged white guy who fires a black employee with much humiliation.
The best part of the movie is Melissa McCarthy doing what she does well. The situations are forced, but humorous. Don't expect too much, but it's not bad.
