Say "Marvin": This Christmas (Screen Gems) I was happy to see This Christmas stay pretty strong at the box office this weekend with $8.4 million (making a two-week total of $37 million). I went to see it last Thursday for my family movie story and was thoroughly entertained, not to mention impressed with the script's ability to juggle a big ensemble of characters. But the cherry on top for me was the closing sequence in which the entire cast steps out of character, one by one, and cuts a rug to Marvin Gaye's Got to Give it Up. It's one of my fave R&B cuts, and it seems to work particular well in movies: It was also featured very effectively in the first Barbershop. "I used to go out to parties/And stand around": No standing around to that groove. |
