It's a Wonderful Knife (2023)★★★☆☆

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! This was a seasonally-appropriate film, but it wasn’t as good as I’d have liked.

This may also be the right time to admit that I’ve never seen It’s a Wonderful Life. I know the basics and I know some of the famous lines and scenes, but I’ve never actually watched it or seen more than a clip or two. Would I have enjoyed this film more if so? I understood the “Clarence” references, at least.

This movie was a little too slow and a little too predictable for me to really enjoy it. Which is a shame, because I love Katharine Isabelle, and Jane Widdop is in Yellowjackets, and I LOVE to hate Justin Long(’s characters, of course).

This is mostly skippable, but you probably won’t wish for your time back if you do decide to sit down and watch it.
