The Halls in general are different in outlook and temperament than the Finches. Unlike Steve, Buddy Hall scams his way through life and never follows through with anything he starts. While Kelly Finch and Tia Hall - Steve's wife and Buddy's wife respectively - and their children begin friendships based largely on those differences, Steve and Buddy butt heads based on those differences.

Deck the Halls is a below average film with a storyline that dosen't really go anywhere and while it myth interest children under the age of seven,everyone else would be smart enough to understand this movie is terribly written and just not funny.While there is good chemistry between Mathew Broderick and Danny DeVito,two comedy actors I really enjoy, it dosen't make up for the poor dialogue and the complete lack of Christmas magic.I would not recommend Deck the Halls to anyone,certainly not as a movie to watch with the family at Christmas time,avoid this movie.A family man's peaceful Christmas plans with his family are ruined when their new neighbours intend on their Christmas lights to be literally visible from space.

Very cute movie about two neighbors (Danny DeVito and Matt Broderick) who try to out-do one another as 'The Christmas Guy' on their block by lavishly decorating their houses during the yuletide.Lots of great scenes like when newly arrived neighbor Danny introduces himself to Matt and winds up taking Matt's morning newspaper and cup of coffee. Also when Danny can't understand the conversation when Matt starts to "talk weird". Kristin Chenoweth is sweet as Danny's wife while lots of charming moments helps make this a holiday staple for the Christmas season.Recommended for the entire family.

'Deck the Halls' is A Decent Watch! It has some funny moments & energetic performances working for it. Time-Pass!'Deck the Halls' Synopsis: Two neighbors have it out after one of them decorates his house for the holidays so brightly that it can be seen from space.'Deck the Halls' is flawed, but funny nonetheless. Sure, some jokes are lame, but I did laugh at some places. Matt Corman, Chris Ord & Don Rhymer's Screenplay could've been funnier, but there is something funny about it. John Whitesell's Direction is lively. Cinematography & Editing are very ordinary.Performance-Wise: Danny DeVito & Matthew Broderick are splendid actors & they are a joy to watch. As feuding neighbors, they both deliver wonderfully. Kristin Davis & Kristin Chenoweth are adequate. Kal Penn appears in a cameo. On the whole, 'Deck the Halls' is funny in parts.
