I love this movie so much

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Just finished A Family For Christmas by Lindale Finlay.Whilst I thoroughly enjoyed the story one thing puzzled me,the word receipt when I thought the word recipe should have been used.This was all through the book so not a one off mistake

Another Hallmark film pandering to women who stay-at-home, have children, and forgo a career.This leading lady realizes a life of car pooling & baking cookies is better than her high profile, profitable career in the big city. It's the sleek metropolitan life versus quaint suburbia once again, as Hallmark regurgitates it's sexist ideas in Christmas colors.Why not make a movie where a woman is changing diapers, arguing with kids about video games, and grounding her teenager from using the car and then she wishes away her family and children? Lest we forget that a woman can never live a life of peace and fulfillment without a husband and kids, right Hallmark?This poor female lead was separating the flakes and raisins out of her two daughter's cereal bowls each morning and everyone in the family, including the husband, expected her to do it and acted like it was normal....and THAT was the preferred life for her!Very disappointing.

BEWARE OF BOGUS REVIEWS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM. NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY MOVIES. I HAVE NO AGENDA. I AM FARE.Family for Christmas is a 2015 American-Canadian holiday romantic comedy directed by Amanda Tapping and starring Lacey Chabert and Tyron Leitso. Written by Bryar Freed, the film is about a successful single career woman who, after meeting a man playing Santa Claus during her office Christmas party, wakes up the following morning to find herself married to her college sweetheart and two kids. The television film first aired on July 11, 2015 on the Hallmark Channel.This is whole film is just sends a mixed message to women. It shows that a woman will only be truly happy if she is married with children. In real life not every woman is meant to be a parent. Also mot all women want to have children. And not all women that have children are happy being a mother.In this film has a successful television news reporter has her life change overnight by waking and finding that she is no longer a success reporter but married with children living in the suburbs. Movies like this send a terrible message that women can not have a career and a family. This film shows this woman could of had a career but her husbands doesn't want her too. At the end she leaves her job to make her husband happy! PLEASE. This films should be burned.

Change the names and a few other details and basically what you have here is a remake of The Family Man with Nicolas Cage and Téa Leoni."A fast-lane investment broker, offered the opportunity to see how the other half lives, wakes up to find that his sports car and girlfriend have become a mini-van and wife."I wish I had more to say as part of a meaningful review, but I don't. And per IMDb's requirements, I need to have a solid 10 lines of text, before they will accept my review. Which, I think is a bit ridiculous considering they only offer a "one-liner" for the movies they hold in their database. Ahh. life in the good ol' USA.
