CHRISTMAS BREAK – IN (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
CHRISTMAS
BREAK – IN
(Original
Motion Picture Soundtrack)
Director Michael Kampa
Music by J Bateman
Label Plaza Mayor Company Ltd
Izzy is an energetic 9-year-old. Overscheduled and
running late, her parents can't pick her up on time on the last day of school
before Christmas break. A blizzard complicates the matter, but not as much so
as a pair of bad guys who are freezing in an ice cream truck. The school
janitor is kidnapped by them, and it's up to Izzy to save the day.
It's close to Christmas and nine-year-old Izzy
(Cameron Seely) is desperate to get a new guitar. Her parents have promised to
take her after school if they can be bothered. You see, Izzy's parents are
ridiculously consumed with their very busy jobs, to the extent that they
borderline neglect their two children. So off Izzy goes to school where she
spends quite a lot of time with Ray the Janitor who teaches her the guitar.
Then a blizzard hits, the school closes early and all parents must come and get
their kids. All except Izzy's. We've already established that they are not the
most reliable people.
By now, Ray has realised that
Izzy is on her own in the school and goes back to get her. He then gets
kidnapped by the thieves who don't know Izzy is still there. All the while the
idiot parents have crashed their car, and are attempting to get to the school
by other means. That includes trying to rob a snow ski, which they also crash.
I told you they're idiots.
Of course, this is
primarily a kid's Christmas movie so everything works out in the end. Christmas Break-In is
basically Home Alone with a girl in a school. Sadly, it doesn't have any of the
same comic genius, decent script or plot as it's predecessor. To the woman on
IMDB who gave it two reviews, both with 10 stars – what were you thinking????
