"If by some miracle you can close Walter Davis and his 14 million dollar account, your jobs are safe." Josh Parker (Bateman) is having a tough morning and things get worse when he gets to work. Carol (Aniston) the CEO of the company he works for has given him and his boss/her brother Clay (Miller) an ultimatum. They must either close the deal on a $14 million account or lay off 40% of the staff. Seeing no other option they decide to invite the person they are trying to convince to a Christmas party, what starts off as a simple office party soon gets out of control. This was a movie that I was looking forward to. The cast is great and everyone of them are hilarious on their own. T.J. Miller, Jason Bateman, Kate McKinnon...how can things go wrong. The answer is...this movie. The best way to describe this is nu comparing it to the new Ghostbusters. The dialog and interaction between the characters is great and funny, but the actual story and plot is so uninspired that it quickly lost me and I became bored with the entire thing. The funniest part of this movie is Bateman and Miller shopping in the beginning because of the way they interacted. The rest, is just...not good. Overall, extremely disappointing and like Ghostbusters the cast seemed set up for failure even though they did all they could. I give this a C.
