I was highly disappointed with this movie. The storyline is really dumb and the events that take place are so unrealistic!!!!! The parents are possibly THE WORST and dumbest parents I've ever seen. They are irresponsible, selfish, careless and do some really dumb stuff throughout the film. I feel bad that Danny Glover, who is actually a good actor, signed up to this abysmal excuse for a movie!!!

Plot summary
Izzy is an energetic 9-year-old girl. 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.

CHEESY, TERRIBLE, POOR ACTING, UNREALISTIC STORY!!!
Passed the time
Better then the average Hallmark film with a decent Netflix cast. It will pass the time during the holiday season.
A limp effort
I wanted to like this, if only for Danny Glover's sake, but I couldn't - it's bad.
'Christmas Break-In' is a borderline 'Home Alone' rip-off, especially with how it sets up the plot - it kinda goes its own way by the end, even it if still misses originality. It also lacks humour and heart, two things it desperately tries to add to the mix - it's barely a Christmas film, too.
Glover is alright, his character is massively forgettable though. Kid actor Cameron Seely tries her best and is likeable, but she's quite wooden with her performance - not helped by the very poor dialogue. The trio of Douglas Spain, Jake Van Wagoner and Denise Richards are awful - Richards slightly better than the other two, not by much though.
A limp effort, pure and simple.
