MaDere Whitfield's (Devine) two sons and two daughters are all grown up and no longer live in her Los Angeles home. But for the first time in seven years, all four siblings will be under one roof together as a family for the holidays. This Christmas may not be holly-jolly after all when all of the kids arrive home with loads of baggage—and I don't mean suitcases. With the tree trimmed and stockings all hung in a row, family secrets are revealed and ties tested, leaving the Whitfield's searching for the meaning of family and forgiveness. Special features on the DVDand Blu-ray Disc™ include a commentary track by the film's stars, two deleted and extended scenes, the 12-minute Making This Christmas Special featurette, the four-minute Chris Brown This Christmas music video, and previews. (Stacey Pendry)
