As we reach the end
Of our Holiday rhymes,
Let's spend our festive day
with family drama and crimes.
Of all the Christmas specials
We've looked at this year,
The Ref is my absolute favorite
For it fills me with hilarious cheer.
A comedy that speaks truths
Which we normally don't express,
Because it's supposed to be joyful always
Our true feelings we must suppress.
This movie says, "F&*K THAT!"
And makes its voice heard,
It demands that those who are silenced
Shall now have the final word.
The story follows a married couple
Who is going through tough times,
Their marriage is in shambles and ruin
Their son is into high crimes.
They have feelings about each other
Which they are afraid to admit,
For they all have terrible perceptions
Often resulting in a fit.
They go about their lives
Preparing for a Christmas Eve feast,
With relatives they totally despise
Though it can't get worse, at least.
Little do they know
Just how heated things can get,
When they are kidnapped by a jewel thief
Whose plans have been offset.
His escape plan is compromised
And he cannot skip town,
The police are searching for him tirelessly
His head he must keep down.
He hides out in the couples home
Tying them up to the chairs,
All the while they bicker at each other
Causing the thief to lose many hairs.
This film is beyond hilarious
Many lines can be quoted,
The writing is witty and sharp
And never ever feels bloated.
The performances are crazy
Energetic and fun,
Denis Leary especially
Is probably the silliest one.
But what gives this special film
A fond place in my heart,
Is it's the message of truth and openness
A complete work of art.
Give this one a chance
If you're feeling a bit frustrated,
You will laugh uncontrollably
And your anger be alleviated.
Ladies & gentlemen, I am TheNorm; thank you all for reading.
Have a safe and Happy Holidays!
