The feel-good sentiments tug a little too hard at the heartstrings, but Frank Capra's holiday classic is a warm celebration of American ideals.

Took me three years to watch this, but each time I fail to get around to it. Now I finally do and feel like I want to cry for hours. A film that's so depressing and yet jolly. Showing how everyone is relevant in the darkness of times. Also, James Stewart is one handsome son of a bitch. Merry Christmas everyone!

I love this movie and I watch it every year on Christmas Eve. It just makes all the little seemingly insignificant details of life seem so much more important when you step back and realize all that a person has- or doesn't have. It's one of those stories that has been told a thousand times but this one is a classic.

Beyond the fact that this is an undisputed Christmas classic, it's also a well-made and uplifting film in its own right. The optimistic nature of the film is vintage Capra, but the film works mainly because of its talented cast, led by Jimmy Stewart at his most all-American.

This is my second favorite Christmas film. This is Capra's best work. Despite its setting, I believe this a film you can any time and it'll just leave you with a good feeling. Yeah, its pretty corny. But hey, its a classic.

I gotta admit, for as cheesy as it is, it's a pretty good movie.
