Another Christmas movie that I had vaguely wanted to see when it was released, I hadn't been enthusiastic enough to drag anybody to the cinema to see it. So when it made it to TV, I was keen to give it a try.
Nativity! is exactly what you expect it to be. Paul Maddens (Freeman) is a teacher who has lost any love of Christmas he used to have, because that's when his girlfriend left him. And if you can't guess where Nativity! is going with this, you really have never watched a Christmas movie.
What Nativity! does, it does perfectly well. It just doesn't do anything new, resulting in your average Christmas movie and not really much more than that.
Rating: 3 out of 5
