This is the type of movie that is perfect for when you can't decide on what else to watch. The story is entertaining, and the chemistry between the brothers is great. I like all of these actors, and even though the plot turns and devices are a little familiar, the characters are fun to watch over and over. And not just the title 3. Everyone from the boys' mother, to the jailbirds, to the cops, the deputies, and the FBI have their place in the story. I definitely recommend it if you are a fan of any of the title actors. Also, if you just want a cute, funny, heartfelt comedy, then this may be for you. Another movie in the same vein that I thoroughly enjoy is Clean Slate, with Dana Carvey.
The movie was very entertaining good characters kept my interest. All the actors were good specially Nicolas Cage in the other two actors with him. Trapped in paradise very good movie.

When Nick Cage gets out of prison his brothers a compulsive liar and a kleptomaniac (played by SNL alums Jon Lovitz and Dana Carvey respectively!) talk him into robbing the bank in a little town called Paradise! After a series of a comedy of errors they eventually are successfully, but just one problem...They can't seem to get out of the town! Very Funny Overlooked Christmas Themed Movie that is Full of Great Characters! This one will soon become one of your Holiday Favorites! Highly Recommend!

I had seen this movie before and liked it very much. It's a light hearted Christmas movie, but it's one of those zany, one crazy thing into the next films… so if you don't like that sort of thing, I'd avoid it. Nicolas Cage gets conned by his brothers (who just got out of prison), and gets wrapped up in a bank robbery in a small town, right at Christmas time. A bad snow storm and other factors (I did mention zany, right?), prevent them from making a get-a-way, and they keep getting thrown together with the town's people. Between the Sheriff, his deputies, and the FBI, things get pretty hot for the boys, not to mention complicated! Can this possibly turn out okay? Can this possibly have a happy ending? Hey, it's a Christmas movie! Add to your Christmas movie collection and watch it every year!Read full review

We have liked this movie for years, but only had it in VHS. It’s nice to finally have a dvd copy of it. Very clean except for an occasional word and then a cussing rant of the mom. Only negative part.

This is a wacky Christmas movie with stars that work well with each other. Three brothers rob a bank in a small town and are then taken care of by the very people they robbed. Although an unrealistic series of events occur, it is an enjoyable movie.
