★★★

It’s been two decades since Love Actually rewrote the Christmas movie playbook, predominantly by exhausting it. If you’ve ever wondered what an infantilisation of the interconnectivity conceit would look like, Netflix’s That Christmas has the answer. The film is Richard Curtis’ second festive offering in as many years, following 2023’s Genie, and, well, it’s fine. Colourful, innocuous, mildly diverting…pick your bland adjective and damn with faint praise at leisure.
