Thanksgiving was yesterday, so you know what that means: the Holiday season is officially on. And what better way to get into the holiday spirit than with a new Christmas movie?
Streaming on Hulu as of today, “Nutcrackers” is a new holiday dramedy from David Gordon Green (“Pineapple Express,” “The Righteous Gemstones”). It features Ben Stiller in his first lead film role in six years, in addition to Linda Cardellini, Edi Patterson, Tim Heidecker, and Toby Huss.
“Nutcrackers” follows straightlaced Mike (Stiller), a workaholic from Chicago, who has to travel to rural Ohio to deliver his four nephews (played by a real-life quartet of brothers) who are considered “at-risk” into foster care following a car wreck that orphaned them. The heartwarming holiday dramedy also has shades of romance and an ending you’ll likely be able to predict — but there’s nothing wrong with that.
