Good movie but grossly overrated
... View MoreThe movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
... View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
... View MoreGreat story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
... View MoreSo a little honesty here, my least favorite part of Hallmark Christmas movies is the preachy attitude. That is what separates this movie from the rest. Instead the focus is on the characters who happen to be enjoying Christmas traditions together. The chemistry between the 2 appealing character leads, Emory and Scott is wonderful, and Scott's daughter and mother are also on mark. You just believe and like them, and the amusing dialogue is a step above the usual Hallmark movie. It's just a fun romantic comedy, and I hope Hallmark makes more of these movies in the future.
... View MoreThe chemistry between the two stars is off the charts...its obvious that they know each other (both are co-stars in "The Last Ship") and seemed to genuinely like each other. This makes the movie better than some of the other offerings as the acting is natural. The storyline is somewhat standard but the setting is unique. The daughter is cute-not precocious-which also makes this movie better than some. Good acting and sweet story. Highly recommend.
... View MoreThis was a fun one. Sure, it follows the time honored formula, but the characters are just a little more peppy, the dialog surprisingly quicker - and the actors all seemed to be game for a good holiday. Even with a choice of other things to view, this Hallmark movie was an easy checkmark on my feel-good movie list.
... View MoreI have watched all the Hallmark movies this season and, for me, this is just about the best of all of them. Everything just clicked and felt so right and natural. And the leads had great chemistry just as Emory was looking for.
