About This Movie

Surviving Christmas (1996), directed by an unknown hand, presents a unique blend of comedy and chaos. It features Gordon Brittas leading his staff on what should be a straightforward team-building retreat in the Welsh wilderness. However, what unfolds is a series of farcical misadventures as they are hunted by assassins. The humor is often derived from the absurdity of Mr. Brittas' overly enthusiastic yet misguided leadership. The pacing varies, with moments of frantic energy tempered by quieter, character-driven scenes that showcase the ensemble's comedic timing. Practical effects occasionally crop up, adding a certain charm. It's a film that leans heavily into the theme of misplaced motivation and the chaos that ensues when intentions collide with reality.
