This was a pretty funny movie. the reason a lot of people didn't like was it wasn't drake and josh funny. It was Family Guy funny (not as good tho). But so what, family guy rocks. So did this movie. there were like 30 times you could say "that's what she said". Plus so many things they did were just laughable and the story was pretty good. I liked it because the time flew by when you were watching it. Then you always know your in for a good movie. I thought it was better than Drake and Josh Go To Hollywood, but not as good as Drake and Josh Really Big Shrimp. However there were quite a few flaws that didn't quite kill the movie, but if these flaws weren't present who knows how good it could have been? For example I think Crazy Steve is one of if not they funniest character in Drake & Josh and while he did appear in the movie, he wasn't that funny. The actor plays "Spencer" in ICarly and he is much funnier in that. Also some the jokes that were clearly meant to be HYSTERICAL were just stupid. The studio audience went crazy and you were left to say WTF? Overall it was funny but Drake and Josh is a legendary sitcom and could have done waaaaay better especially since this is a movie and not a TV show. If It's on watch it but don't pay money for it unless you really like Drake & Josh.

Good Movie, Different, but still funny.
Interesting...
This movie: WOW...
Well to begin, I guess I should say that it wasn't actually half bad. It was just very different. In it we have Drake promising a little foster girl to give her and her family their best Christmas ever while he was momentarily distracted.
Later, Drake throws a Christmas party that gets crashed by some guys who end up causing some commotion, even knocking a whole snack table over. Josh, after understandably calling the cops, ends up getting arrested by those same cops because they thought that he was the one causing trouble. Due to them not having any more money left because of Drake giving it to a fake lawyer for Josh, Drake tries to break josh out of prison because he can't help Mary Alice without him. After also getting caught and arrested, Drake calls Helen to defend them in their trial. The Judge concludes that, unless Drake and Josh want to go to jail for a very long time (in Josh's case for a crime he didn't commit), they must give Mary Alice and her foster family their best Christmas ever.
So, after a whole bunch of chaos that wasn't honestly all THAT funny, Drake and Josh do end up giving the foster family their best Christmas ever.
All in all, I thought the movie wasn't bad. But, it was not that great either. It seemed like an outdated, generic plot and didn't have that same Drake & Josh TV show spark that I loved. But there were those special moments like with Crazy Steve and a few chuckle-causing jokes that kind of made up a little bit for its shortcomings.
If you were a fan of Drake & Josh, you may want to check this out to see what's going on with all of the old beloved characters. For everybody else, I'd probably steer clear or maybe catch it somewhere on a cable network.
Verdict: It's Alright
Do not go by other comments...It's fun!
I had seen the comments here before watching the movie. Some people here bashed this movie as not funny, some others have said it was OK. But I went ahead and watched the movie, and to my not-so-surprise, I found the movie very funny. I had many laughs. Thoroughly enjoyable movie. Drake and Josh are back! The movie starts with Drake and Josh planning their Christmas, and then there is this Christmas Party. A Santa(Drake), A girl who is an orphan. This girl asks Drake for "the best Christmas ever". An emotional Drake promises that.
You can break a Christmas Promise! You just cannot! And the rest of the story is all about how Drake and Josh try to make this Best Christmas ever happen.
