   Is 'the holdovers' a good movie?

   Is 'the holdovers' a good New Year's movie?

   • As it takes place in the weeks between 1970 and '71, The Holdovers also stands as one of the vanishingly few quality New Year's movies and itself feels a bit like turning over a new leaf. It is my new favourite movie of the year. Jackson Weaver is a senior writer for CBC Entertainment News.
