The One Liner Review: What seems to look like a merry viewing, Eddie Murphy’s weird christmas movie turned out to be an excuse to try and adapt the classic carol ’12 days of Christmas’ and not to mention it’s about a family whose names are christmas related.

Summary: In a Florida elementary school, a class pet lizard believes he only has a year left to live and tends to try to escape, with unexpected results.

The One Liner Review: Adam Sandler usually does comedy movies…but this one, he gave us something moving and if you wanted the one from the class pets eye…this is the film for you.
