Merry Ex-Mas

About This Movie

So, 'Merry Ex-Mas' is an interesting little comedy from 2016 that dives into the holiday season with a twist. It centers on Katrina, a single mom, and DeMarco, who’s got A.D.D. and is trying to juggle parenting with his romantic pursuits. There’s this underlying tension as DeMarco gets involved with another woman, which throws a wrench in their family dynamics. The pacing is pretty laid-back but it somehow keeps you engaged with the quirky moments and character interactions. The performances feel genuine, especially Angel Conwell as Katrina, who carries a lot of the emotional weight. It’s not groundbreaking, but it carves out a niche with its relatable themes of love and family during the holidays, which I think is what can make it a distinct watch.
