... View MorePretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
... View MoreI sometimes wonder why certain people choose to watch certain movies.....do not believe the negative reviews of this movie. This is a lovely Christmas romance movie, with good acting and realistic characters. I have certainly met and know people like these characters, even the parents of the husband to be....so I am confused by some of the reviews saying the characters are not believable. My husband and I enjoyed watching this together. You will too.
... View MoreThis Christmas movie currently available on Netflix is your regular Christmas cliched predictable TV Movie. What can i say, once you've seen one of these, you've seen them all. I don't know anything about romantic relationships, but i suspect that this is not how people are in reality. I guess the writers wanted to make a soppy Christmas romance flick. "A Christmas Detour" isn't very entertaining, but it does have a slightly interesting element, once you start watching you'll want to try and make it till the end just to satisfy a little bit of curiosity to find out what happens, but this film is so cliched - you will have already guessed the ending just by reading a few lines of the main plot.
... View MoreI ended up watching this film last night whilst searching through Netflix for a light-hearted easy-going festive film to watch on an evening. The thumbnail to this film looked interesting an I watched it to just see if it was any good or not.This film did meet my expectations, the plot, cast and nature of the film kept me watching the film al the way through without stopping. This classic plot for a storyline of a struggle to travel during a major holiday is complimented even further by the humour and warm nature of the film, and in many was exceeded expectations placed following other films with plotlines of unexpected journeys during major holidays such as the 1987 film 'Planes, Trains and Automobiles'. This film uniquely applies to the classic foundation for a plot line as it features the underlying theme of four characters, that due to this unexpected turn of events, discover more about each other and question their original views in which they first displayed at the beginning of the film I would highly recommend this modern festive film to anyone getting in the Christmas/ Holiday spirit
... View Morewe have been inundated with these kinds of movies over the past few years and i will say this was one of the better ones and more memorable for me. i just like the romantic snowed-in thing, and the first half hour had some funny dialogue. as someone else on here said, the casting is ridiculous though. are there no gorgeous 25 year old actresses available? must hallmark always use 38yo women as leading ladies finding love? the actress they used here played the part well, was cute and nice, but come on her time has passed, she had her day, get someone young, thin, and hot! OK it's making me write one more line. here i go, almost there. OK there! i think i completed 10 lines! IMDb what do you have against succinct reviews??
