  • Thanksgiving is usually a happy time, but ad executive Jack (Adam Sandler) dreads the holiday because his twin sister, Jill (also Sandler), makes her annual visit. When Jack and his sister get off on the wrong foot, the only way to make it right is to invite her to stay through Hanukkah.

Though the Jill problem is too insurmountable to ignore, almost everything else in this comedy succeeds. Read full review
