Noel (2004) 5/10

Starring : Penelope Cruz, Susan Sarandon, Paul Walker, Alan Arkin, Marcus Thomas, Chazz Palminteri, Robin Williams
Director : Chazz Palminteri
Running Time : 93 mins

A group of New Yorkers, all of whom are disappointed with the current Christmas holidays, find their lives connecting with each other in a hospital where it seems minor miracles can happen.

This was a disappointing mish mash of a movie, which tries to focus on its famous cast rather than proper storylines. Sadly the celebrities are a little thin on the ground, with Susan Sarandon and Penelope Cruz being the most prominent names. There are some reasonable moments here but, with Robin Williams trying to play a sickly sweet role and Paul Walker desperately still incapable of acting, you can just bet that no matter what good moments there might be are going to be spoiled
