I only knew the title. I went into this wondering what a Hot Frosty was. I think the cover kind of gives it away but it's pretty funny. It really is about a Hot Frosty. All the women want to fuck the shit out of Hot Frosty. It's very Trumpy in that sense. If Kamala'd won he'd had learned about gender neutral bathrooms instead of home repair. If you only watch one Christmas Romcom this year, apart from Love Actually, make it Hot Frosty.
I can't say I like it, but 'Hot Frosty' isn't all that bad. Lacey Chabert and Dustin Milligan are decent, the plot is mildly interesting (even if it feels like a bit of a rehash of fellow Netflix festive film 'The Knight Before Christmas') and the Xmas vibes are abundant. Craig Robinson and Joe Lo Truglio add some star quality too. I cannot explicitly say that I enjoyed events onscreen, however. It just didn't really do anything for me in a positive sense. A quite forgettable flick, albeit one that I don't have anything overly negative to hold against it.
