Truly Dreadful Film
not horrible nor great
Excellent, smart action film.
Beautiful, moving film.
Sexy looking guy as a main character, with pleasant looking female lead as well as their two good looking female assistants. Light, fluffy movie was fun to watch for the first time & again for a second time.
View MoreMy wife and I watched some of this movie last night. It was part of Hallmark's bizarre Christmas in July series. To be honest, we had this movie on in the background while we were doing other things. At one point, we both left the room to play with our daughter for about half an hour, and we left this movie on while we were gone. I think we watched a total of 20 minutes of this movie. We were a little miffed that Lacy Chabert was not in this movie, but my wife's anger was somewhat placated by the presence of Jaime King. My wife told me that Jaime King is part of Taylor Swift's "girl squad". I don't know what a girl squad is, but it sounds scary. Taylor Swift, according to my wife, is pretty washed up, so that begs the question: if you are a has- been, as Taylor Swift is at this moment, how can you possibly sustain a "squad"? I hope Taylor Swift puts out another album so that she is not abandoned by her squad, turns to drugs and prostitution, begins murdering endangered species for their pelts, and then spends the rest of her life in prison.I'm not entirely sure what happened in the Mistletoe Promise. At the end, Jaime King was kissing someone, and I assume that she wasn't kissing the villain of the movie. So I highly recommend this movie either in July or during the Christmas season. If not for your own enjoyment, then at least watch it to save Taylor Swift's life.
View MoreYes, the plot is different than the book, but for me that's a good thing. The movie tells the story of two very awkward, lonely people who find each other and create a safe space for themselves as they make peace with who they are. While not as "deep" as the book, it's far more approachable for the majority of people, and is 100 percent certain not to traumatize you in what you thought was the middle of a pleasant Christmas story (which happens to some people with the book, as you can see when you check it out on Goodreads). If you're a fan of the book, this probably isn't for you. But if you like sweet, heartfelt Christmas movies, please give it a try.
View MoreHallmark films these types of movies - year in and year out - and promises that you will get what you expect. Cute actors, predictable plots, no great special effects (SPOILER ALERT- filmed in British Columbia -Vancouver specifically- a city that doesn't get snow) - so the special effects here is fake snow everywhere. If you want drama - go elsewhere-if you want a watchable hour and a half - well, that is what Hallmark offers. And delivers! I look forward to each year's Christmas fare,and really have never been disappointed, this is my official precursor to the Christmas season. I think that Hallmark has a formula - that works- taking actors - that are usually the number three or four spot (the odd time number two) - on a list of performers in any given TV show,sometimes movies - and giving them a main - co-number one position in their movies. I always just seem to remember the actors and ALWAYS come here to IMDb and look up where I have seen them before. To me - all part of the Hallmark experience.
