WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Fourteen years ago, childhood friends Ethan (Gordon-Levitt), Isaac (Rogen) and Chris (Mackie) came together to celebrate Christmas Eve for the first time to support Ethan after his parents died. The tradition carries on until the present day, when Ethan announces that this will be the last year they honour this tradition, what with Isaac becoming a father and Chris finding fame. For their last Christmas Eve of debauchery, they seek to have the night of their lives in New York City…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Three best buds hit the town for some festive debauchery in this brand-new and often hilarious new Christmas classic from the minds of This Is The End and last year’s controversial The Interview (though we assure you, no North Korean dictators die in this one!)
