If there is any reason, besides an annual craving for cinematic holiday cheer, to see ALMOST CHRISTMAS, that reason would be Mo’Nique. Heck, the Mo'Nique bloopers at the end of the film are worth the price of admission alone.
Los Angeles Times
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Almost Christmas goes light enough on the cliché and gives the stacked cast - which also includes J.B. Smoove, Gabrielle Union, Omar Epps and Romany Malco - enough decent material that the film remains relatively lively.

Rating: C --
It's as predictable as your aunt's holiday stuffing, but the cast finds some places to open up the material.

Almost unbearable would be a better title.

Guardian
Rating: 2.5/5 --
Warmly familiar and not without a notable degree of poignancy, it's disappointing to see glimpses of the strength this scenario and cast could have commanded if Talbert's script didn't circulate almost exclusively in obvious beats.

Rating: 4/5 --
The movie takes a few calamitous turns at its climax, dangerously approaching broad slapstick and villainizing a character we've come to love. But mainly, it's a fun and boisterous countdown to the big meal.

Time Out
3 stars out of 4 -- The committed performances by the cast of talented actors are what elevates ALMOST CHRISTMAS above complaints about its familiarity and melodrama. Kimberly Elise is extraordinarily adept at handling heavy drama and broad comedy in the same moment.

However, having all of them under one roof leads to a number of personal confrontations as secrets are revealed and marriages are tested. Omar Epps, J.B. Smoove, Nicole Ari Parker, John Michael Higgins, Keri Hilson, and DC Young Fly co-star. Written and directed by David E. Talbert (BAGGAGE CLAIM).
