Queen Latifah remains here an utterly imperturbable, warm and human presence.

It's not exactly distinguished, but pleasantly warm-hearted, and the sort of thing you might enjoy on afternoon TV when laid up with the flu.

An awful lot makes no sense in Jeffrey Price and Peter Seaman's script, starting with its basic premise.
January 27, 2007
A nice little romantic comedy which also packs an emotional punch.

Might not be in the first tier of holiday classics, but its winning cast led by its captivating star make this one you'll want to keep in your Christmas viewing rotation.

The most surprisingly satisfying Hollywood comedy in ages.

Formulaic but sometimes winning comedy.

It's obvious where "Last Holiday" goes and at times it takes too long to get there, but watching Latifah work her style and spirit when she gets to the Grandhotel Pupp is pure enjoyment.

In its corny, cartoonish way, it even suggests a generosity of spirit that's faithful to the 1950 original.

If you had three weeks left to live, I wouldn't recommend you spend your precious time watching this.

It may not be much -- it's a remake of a 1950 Alec Guinness film -- but it is as bright as a Christmas bauble.
