Synopsis
Love the Coopers (2015) is an ensemble Christmas comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM. Sam and Charlotte have been married forty years and have quietly decided to split — but first they have to get through one more Christmas Eve under the same roof.
Four generations descend on the Cooper house, each hauling a private mess along. Daughter Eleanor picks up a stranger at the airport so she won't show up alone again. Brother Hank just lost his job and can't bring himself to tell his kids. Lonely Aunt Fishy shoplifts for company, while granddad Bucky pines after a young diner waitress. Diane Keaton and John Goodman anchor the parents, surrounded by Ed Helms, Amanda Seyfried, Alan Arkin, Olivia Wilde and Marisa Tomei — and a young Timothee Chalamet turns up in a smaller part.
Director Jesse Nelson serves up the familiar holiday formula: laughs braided with melancholy, a folksy narrator, and an ending built for the season. It aims low and lands soft — easy company for a family night rather than anything sharp. Stream Love the Coopers (2015) online on iFILM.
