I enjoyed it, especially its ending, which earned tears and paid off Broderick with a lovely fade out. But. But ... this part is so true, it's startlingly accurate;

"But the production seemed to gyrate around them dizzyingly. The camera swooped through dream sequences, the Parker house, Ralphie’s classroom, and Cleveland Street with enthusiasm — but it felt disorienting, too, as if the camerawork was desperately trying to keep everything interesting. The constant cuts to commercial break didn’t help, especially because Old Navy — the show’s major sponsor — produced commercials that featured singing and dancing, just like the show itself."

Not to mention Old Navy's anachronistic product placement. Boo.

Jeremy Gerard in his Deadline.com review: ''There was an Old Navy shop in the town square, too – er, 1940?''

That storefront drove me crazy! A total WTH moment.

Believe it or not, there were stores in the "olden days" (not sure how far back) that were referred to as "Army/Navy Stores" which sold surplus military style clothing and goods. I figured they were going for that.

there still are.
(not sure how that relates to the complaint though.)
