Bernard and the Genie (1991 TV Movie)
10/10
Christmas Classic!
23 March 2005
I saw this little film a while back on A & E, and recently found that it was released on a "bare bones" DVD. Doesn't matter, though, as the movie doesn't need any bells and whistles to spice it up.

The movie introduced me to Alan Cumming and Rowen Atkinson - two of the better character actors around.

It is quite simply one of the best Holiday movies ever. I really loved the characters, and found the British humor and pace to be a refreshing change from the normal American flicks. I recently saw the movie Millions and it seems somewhat reminiscent of BATG's style.

It's a Wonderful Life and A Christmas Story rank as my all-time Holiday favorites, with BATG finishing a close third.
