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

This is a great example of how lack of creativity can still earn money. And a sad example of how people rate a cheesy, mediocre movie 7 out of 10, probably wishing this was their Christmas miracle story next year...The first 10 minutes were like watching season 1 of Heart of Dixie all over again... I was just waiting to hear Dr Zoe Harper's name mentioned at some point...I have seen far, far better movies - at least movies non pasteurized that have way lower score here. IMDb used to be a reliable source - not any more.

Let it Snow re-packaged where where flawless makeup, hair-perfect and pasted-on-smile Candace Cameron Bure plods in with high-heels and designer clothes (if she's really a smart doctor, you think she'd know the weather in Alaska in December?). Within days of her arrival, she is willing to give up the career she's worked hard for (well, in truth, it's implied that Daddy pulled the strings) to pine for a somewhat good looking character who has little definition or motivation, and live in a syrupy small town called "Garland" in Alaska. The ridiculous is implied in that Garland is really the North Pole and Mr Holliday (a character who reminds me of a greasy spoon with a bad attitude) is really Santa Claus (who is apparently headed towards heart disease), is ridiculous and over the top. Scenery very poor. Hallmark has put out more films each Christmas season, but it's quality not quantity that keeps me glued to the screen.

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.

Candace Cameron Bure is a doctor who wants the same fellowship in Boston that her father had. When she doesn't get it, she needs a job and winds up in Alaska running through the standard Hallmark Christmas Romantic comedy tropes.If what you're looking for is those standard tropes played engagingly, you'll find them here. Miss Bure is pretty and speaks her lines well; David O'Donnell is a competent juvenile; Brian Doyle-Murray is a fine Santa-like supporting player; Kendra Mylnechuk has the best performance as a hyper-competent nurse.However, there's nothing in the script that isn't interchangeable with most of Hallmark's rote romcoms. It's so unengaging -- because you know exactly what is going to happen next -- that you have time to contemplate the production errors that make it clear that this wasn't shot in Alaska, once you get past the beautiful setting shots. Every morning Miss Bure awakens at 6:30 to a sun high in the sky in an Alaska December. The grass is bright green and you can see some weedy young maples wearing their summer leaves in town. Finally, in a town so remote that Amazon.com won't ship there, there is no trouble for the local florist (?!) to come up with a dozen perfect roses for the leading man to give to the leading lady on the spur of the moment.I begin watching these Hallmark seasonal romantic comedies intending to give them easy marks. They seem pitched at a very undemanding audience and the actors invariably try their best. However, if the people in charge can't be bothered, then why should the audience?
