Christmas Connection Trailers

Adventurous flight attendant Sydney’s plans for a tropical Christmas get delayed when she helps an unaccompanied minor get home to Chicago to her dad Jonathan, a handsome widower and investigative reporter. Faced with a shortage of out-going flights, Sydney is marooned for several days in the Windy City – once her home as a small girl — and tags along with Jonathan, his daughter, and their exuberantly festive family until she can find a connecting flight. Jonathan makes her a deal: he helps her chase down the story of how her late parents met, and she helps him to write the perfect Christmas story and keep his job, and along the way, sparks form between them.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This one was a delight from beginning to end. Starring Brooke Burns who I loved from The Most Wonderful Time of the Year (2008) and Fixing Pete (2011). Great to see her in a Christmas movie again. Loved Tom Everette Scott who played the lead actor and a widowed dad. He had the greatest presence with an unusual mannerism a little like Robin Williams. He's not the normal and this was tremendously effective with Brooke Burns. The little girl daughter and their interaction with her and Christmas made the movie effective. The story focused on these 3 main characters to its success. Loved how they did Christmas in this movie. The family gathered at different nights at family members houses to decorate a tree, make cookies, etc. The mystery of Brooke Burns character parents was well done and added depth to the movie. I agree with the Christmas Reviewer and want to see this one again next year. I only give about 1 in 10 movies a perfect 10 and that's after using IMDB to screen out the low rated ones. Well done. Well Done. Well Done.

Brook Burns is on fire in this movie. A walking masterpiece of womanly artwork. It is hard to believe that she would fall for this guy and his dopey family. She needs to be married to a real estate billionaire. It'a nice story and well done, but who cares.

PLEASE BEWARE OF SOME REVIEWERS THAT ONLY HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. WHEN ITS A POSITIVE THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. NOW I HAVE NO AGENDA! I REVIEW MOVIES & SPECIALS AS A WAY TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT I HAVE SEEN! I HAVE DISCOVERED MANY GEMS IN MY QUEST TO SEE AS MANY " C H R I S T M A S " MOVIES AS I CAN. Someone keeps reporting my reviews. I guess they are jealous because I do tell the truth. I want to point out that I never make snide remarks about actors weight or real life sexual orientation. If there acting is terrible or limited "I talk about that". If a story is bad "I will mention that" So why am I being "picked on"? IMDB will not even tell me what someone found offensive. Well on to this review In this film Flight attendant Sydney is tasked with looking after Leah, an unaccompanied minor. After Leah is safely delivered to her father, Jonathan, Sydney finds a package Leah left behind and delivers it to Leah. She missed her connection, and Jonathan invites her to spend the holidays with them. Sydney also happens to be a nice person. She is not the "Career Woman" mean girl that many movies seem to portray. Here this woman really hasn't thought about family she is not against them at all. She just happens to think she wants something else.Now there is 2 stories running concurrently. They both nice stories and the Christmas setting makes this film shine.The story is what you expect from "Hallmark". What is nice however this film in reality is a tribute to love. Both past and present. It also about love you have for your family and enjoying your family. I really liked this one. I will see it again.

Maybe it's just me and the fact that I love family Christmases but this movie really warmed my heart. Brooke Burns' performance felt so sincere (I wasn't sure I'd like her but I fell in love with her!) and Tom Everett Scott is always a delight. The story was also nicely told and the ending made me choke up a bit. Overall, a very nicely told movie. <3
