Is A Christmas Story
Christmas a kid-friendly

00:00:03.660 --> 00:00:05.129
hit of nostalgia?

00:00:05.129 --> 00:00:06.918
[Music plays]

00:00:06.918 --> 00:00:09.840
"Ralphie, promise me,
we're gonna make this

00:00:09.840 --> 00:00:11.334
a wonderful Christmas."

00:00:11.334 --> 00:00:12.358
"I promise."

00:00:12.358 --> 00:00:13.440
Yes indeed.

00:00:13.440 --> 00:00:14.760
"Oh....fudge!"

00:00:14.760 --> 00:00:19.560
In this sequel to the
beloved 1983 classic, a

00:00:19.560 --> 00:00:22.260
grown-up Ralphie brings
his family to Indiana to

00:00:22.260 --> 00:00:24.454
spend the holidays
among old friends.

00:00:24.454 --> 00:00:25.540
"Ralphie!"

00:00:25.540 --> 00:00:28.320
Just like the original, this
one has a fair bit of

00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:30.600
mischief and action
played for laughs.

00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:34.500
Expect sledding accidents,
serious falls, broken bones,

00:00:34.500 --> 00:00:37.597
and other injuries
requiring hospitalization.

00:00:37.597 --> 00:00:38.856
[Man yells]

00:00:38.856 --> 00:00:42.360
There are also several scenes
of adults drinking, sometimes

00:00:42.360 --> 00:00:45.620
to excess, as well as
bullying and mild insults.

00:00:45.620 --> 00:00:47.815
"I triple-dog dare ya!"

00:00:47.815 --> 00:00:48.339
"Oh!"

00:00:48.339 --> 00:00:51.480
Amid the silly antics, the
film delivers good messages

00:00:51.480 --> 00:00:54.780
about the importance of
family, friendship, and grieving

00:00:54.780 --> 00:00:55.920
for lost loved ones.

00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:57.060
