Family comedy starring Danny De Vito & Matthew Broderick. For Cloverdale, Massachusetts optometrist Steve Finch (Broderick), no time of the year can compare to the glory of the Christmas season. &, for many years now, he's carried on a series of heartfelt but hokey Yuletide traditions that his family
- wife Kelly (Kristin Davis), daughter Madison (Alia Shawkat), & son Carter (Dylan Blue)
- at this point, can barely tolerate. Despite his family's exhausted protests, super-organised Steve has the December calendar chock full with everything from shooting the Finch's annual Christmas card photo, to their ritual tree harvesting & neighbourhood caroling night. There's also scheduled time for shopping, 'personal reflection, ' & the town's yearly Winterfest carnival, which Steve joyously oversees. But Steve's Christmas bliss is suddenly destroyed when slippery car salesman Buddy Hall (De Vito) moves in next door & Steve finds himself going toe-to-toe with his new neighbour. Buddy quickly begins to undermine Steve's dominance as the local ' King of Christmas' when he sets out to festoon his new house with enough glowing holiday lights so it will be visible from outer space.
