Unexpected Christmas - Movie Review | Episode 81 | Ubiquitous Blacks Reviews

It’s time for another Black ensemble Christmas movie — but this one is Unexpected.

TeaRon and BK break down Unexpected Christmas, the holiday comedy starring Lil Rel Howery, Dominique Perry, Reagan Gomez-Preston, and the legendary Anna Maria Horsford. Before diving into the film, the hosts reflect on some of their favorite Black Christmas classics and what expectations come with them.

In Unexpected Christmas, Marissa (Perry) is blindsided when her longtime boyfriend Richard (Howery) claims he can’t join her for Christmas — only for her to arrive at her family’s Texas home and find him there anyway… as the date of her estranged stepsister Kerry (Gomez-Preston). From fake boyfriends to messy revelations, chaos erupts as Marissa plots her holiday revenge.

The question is: does this movie deliver festive fun, or does the drama overwhelm the cheer? TeaRon and BK unpack the twists, performances, and whether Unexpected Christmas earns a spot in the Black holiday movie rotation.
