You won't be disappointed!

an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

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

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Candace Cameron Bure stars in another Hallmark Christmas Movie. This time she plays a young doctor, the daughter of a physician living in the lower 48 who expects his daughter to only work at the most prestigious medical facilities. Instead, she accepts a position at a small hospital in a very remote Alaskan community called, "Garland." Garland is desperate for a doctor who will stick around for more than a little while. The town is very friendly - obviously in hopes that she will stay on. Typical Hallmark style holiday movie with the attendant magical moments, including snow, Santa, as well as a surprise or two as secrets are uncovered, etc. One of the more enjoyable in this venue. The characters - each with their cute quirks - just click in this heartwarming Christmas yarn. No, its not "Miracle on 34th Street," but as mindless, warm, romantic holiday fare it succeeds.

My god I have no idea how people rated this as an average 7!..It was so painful to watch as the acting was very very bad. From the start all the actors were like reading sentences from the script!!so unnatural and annoying..Trust me, I'm not writing this review by comparing to award wining movies out there. Just that they lacked the basics of acting directing and pretty much everything else!! Disney movies are sooo good compared to this movie.The story was sooo boring and badly written. The reason I watched it because of the "hope" in this Christmas season hoping it would get better!!..but it never did!!.. I'm sure we all watch remakes, cheesy love stories and Christmas stories which has very familiar endings.In those we know whats coming but we don't expect much, although we still enjoys a lot. This movie is NOT one of them! and it just happen to destroy my Christmas spirit.

Really nice and unpretentious Christmas romance. No convoluted "problems" with the love interests, for a change.I like the fact that they made a movie that's just cheerful fun. It's a made-for-TV movie, and as such the little niggles like sunny dawns in wintery Alaska, snow that's not entirely convincing here&there (but thankfully none of that horrible "foam snow" they often use) didn't bother me to much.The actors are adequate, but sometimes too sitcom-ish. Though, it has to be said that theater veteran Kendra Mylnechuk as the busy, joyous nurse Billie really jumps out.The Utah locations are nice, but to me don't look a whole lot like Alaska. Still, as a background it was good enough for me.It's just, basically, a movie with a wholesome, upbeat and positive vibe. Fitting for Christmas.

If you watch the first 5 minutes of this you will get the feel of the rest of the movie. The actors did a good job, but as the other reviews stated, the script and plot are a little flat. Frankly, what do you expect from the Halmark channel? It was a happy seasonal flick, but is unlikely to become a classic.Also, I would just like to point out those were all white blankets...not snow. Snow crunches when it is stepped on. Oh, and I would also like to point out that the Cessna had one landing light when taxiing out, but two, rather bright lights once airborne (when the landing light would have been off). It will surely encourage a little bit of Christmas spirit, and perhaps even some winter fashion tips. -Just look past the sub-par CGI and that it was clearly filmed in a warmer climate.
