Unaccompanied Minors (2006) PG - 3 Stars

A cute movie for the holidays the whole family can share.

Oliver Porter (Lewis Black) is in charge of passengers relations and finds himself stranded at the airport instead on to his vacation he's been planning. A blizzard has hit and even though it's Christmas Eve, tonight no one is going anywhere. His assignment instead is to watch after and care for of a group of teenagers who are traveling without their parents and stranded at the airport.

A make shift holding cell, is set up to house the children and keep everyone under control. However, six children will test his abilities. Spencer (Dyllan Christopher) a nerdy sort of kid with his little sister Katy (Dominique Saldana), Timothey "Beef" Wellington (Brett Kelly) a chubby boy, Grace (Gina Mantegna), a stuck up and snotty rich girl, Donna (Quinn Shephard) sort of a tom boy, and Charlie (Tyler James Williams) probably the smartest one. These six will test Oliver's patients as well as have the time of their lives getting into trouble. But they'll eventually bring Oliver around and have the best Christmas they can at the airport.
