It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. 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 FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA.Daniel Burton (Billy Ray Cyrus) learns to love again when he meets Briony Adair (Gina Holden), the rehabilitation specialist treating his son, and invites her to spend Christmas with his family.This is a film that covers all the bases and it excites you however the grand slam that is needed turns into a bunt and only one story really gets resolved.The film is family safe. There is a message about "money" and gifts and that story works the best here. Bill Ray does alright here but the glue to this film is Gina Holden. When she is not in a scene the film suffers as well as the audience!

This is another of those Christmas TV movies that are constantly turned out. Christmas movies are generally pretty undemanding and predictable and this is no exception. However that really is the point of them, something easy on eye with a predictable cheery ending to watch on a winter afternoon in the run up to Christmas. I would say this is an above average effort for this type of movie, it's well filmed and has a good cast. I am aware of Billy Ray Cyrus who had a UK hit with 'Achy Breaky Heart' in the early 90's. He proves a likable main character in this but to me the acting honours are stolen by Gina Holden who is thoroughly charming. All in all I enjoyed this film more than I thought I would and it is recommended for those who want something heart-warming to watch prior to Christmas.
