Not exactly filled with Xmas spirit and hardly a positive message to send, though <em>'All Is Bright'</em> - or <em>'Almost Christmas'</em>, as it is known in my neck of the woods - is still somehow worth a watch I'd say.
Paul Giamatti puts in a good performance, he is certainly the film's standout in my opinion. Paul Rudd is there alongside him, though, and is also a plus point. I also like Sally Hawkins in this, even though her questionable accent takes a little while to get used to. Elsewhere, it's neat seeing Colman Domingo involved - albeit in a minor role.
It's an odd one, at least for the genre it is attached to. It's moreso a tale at Christmas, rather than a Christmas tale. One I did just narrowly enjoy.
