Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
View MoreGreat movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
View MoreI think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
View MoreThis movie has no big surprises or twists, but it is a very sweet romantic story.Brennan Elliot does a really good job in this movie. Not too much and not too little. The character of Jo adds a special sweetness.It is a nice, steady romantic story where the love Maddie develops for the community is just as much as her love for Kevin.
View MoreI normally like cute Christmas romances, but this one got on my nerves for a few reasons. First, if trees spilled onto the interstate, people don't just sit there & honk. At least they drive around (like our heroine finally did) at best they help move the trees off the road so everyone can get going. Second, the alternator isn't going to disable a car from running, it charges the battery, so the problem would only show up on a cold start. She could have kept driving on her trip and just got a jump start if she had to turn the car off. Also, our heroine has breakfast included in her B&B stay, but she instead goes to the diner in order to get "egg white only" omelets. She orders these THREE days in a row, but never eats or pays for them. Lastly, the hero is planting a seedling Christmas tree. Everyone knows, you don't plant trees in December. Christmas tree farms plant seedlings in March. These kind of things really kept me from enjoying the movie.
View MoreI'm from Argentina so during Christmas time - which is not a huge thing as it it in the US - it's summer in my country, luckily i've spent the last 6 years in the US during that time and it's movies like this that make me appreciate every journey even more. Christmas is such a special thing and this movie translates exactly that feeling. It is truly magical. Yet this movie is everything we know about Hallmark. The plot was good, there were a few lines which were amazing - as in make me laugh for real, amazing - the characters were lovely, and so was the soundtrack. It's the very first time I notice the soundtrack.It's indeed a very beautiful movie, and it's the perfect one to enjoy on Christmas time. It will be even more special.
View MoreThere is only one review as I write this and it misses the mark. This is an excellent happy movie. The lead actress Bonnie Sommerville is actually 42 yrs old and really reminds me of Stephanie Zimbalist in "The Story Lady" (this is a good thing). She absolutely carries the movie and interacts great with the supporting cast. Brennan Elliot plays the lead actor and it is just perfect. This movie is a home run. Kept my interest the whole time.This movie had the little touches that made it memorable. Loved when they ask the ex-encyclopedia salesman who memorized the "A" volume to define "Angel". He touches the little girls nose and says "that's easy, it is a picture of you". That was sweet. Love when Brennan Elliot says "That reindeer cost me a lot". The diner scenes were great as well. Yes the movie started in New York City, but most of it was in Ohio. Enjoy it.
