It's a rare achievement contained within an even rarer type of film. ... A charismatic cast inject some sparkle, but the contrived plotting and thin characterisation take some of the shine off this festive bauble. ... Boxing Day ticks a lot of boxes if you’re after a cosy festive comedy: twilight proposals, thwarted love, and swoony overhead shots of Tower Bridge in the snow

Boxing Day (2021)
There are quite a few storylines competing for attention as Boxing Day unfolds. Some work — the love triangle between Melvin, Lisa and Georgia is suitably tense and generates the friction that powers much of the film — while others miss the mark. A few storytelling decisions don’t ring true, but the winning performances and loving celebration of Black British culture help conjure up just enough holiday cheer to make this worth watching.
