The Perfect Holiday - Jill Marie Jones, Rachel Ture, Gabrielle Union

A Perfect Holiday with Jill Marie Jones

2007 is officially the year the black holiday movie was born. Tyler Perry’s “Why Did I Get Married?” wasn’t exactly a holiday movie, but set in the snow capped mountains of Colorado gives it entrance to the club where “This Christmas” and now “The Perfect Holiday” are mingling at the bar sipping Meyers’s spiked egg nog. There really is no other time I can think of that three chocolate holiday movies made it to the big screen.

That said, watching the trailer for “The Perfect Holiday” for the first time will give you an immediate feeling of deja-“OK, didn’t I just see this movie?”-itis. Especially with Gabrielle Union and Morris Chestnut being the main characters. If it were just the two of them “The Perfect Holiday” would be “Breakin All The Rules Again,” but like “This Christmas” it’s the ensemble cast that makes it, if not a definite first week must-see, at least worthy of a taste - think a week two or three, “Oh yeah, let’s go see that,” kind of flick.

Those extras would be Queen Latifah and Terrence Howard..

Everyone’s favorite Girlfriend hasn’t been seen or heard from since those last episodes. Clutch magazine caught up with her in
“Jill Marie Jones: Brand New Jones.”

I wish there were more about the movie..

“It was an amazing cast and I had a really good time!”

That’s some tight editing, which doesn’t reveal a damn thing except what we know already.. “everyone looks nice” << that old gag.. but there is some good stuff about her cheerleading days and early motivations for becoming an actress. It’s a good read if you need a Jill fix.
