Wonderful character development!

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

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

Blistering performances.

Harsh summary, but it fits. Simply put, the lead character establishes herself as an unattractive shrew for the first 1/3 of the movie. Perhaps there are a lot of women out there that believe a woman like this would get a dreamy guy, but it ain't gonna happen. It's not that she's angry about getting dumped by a butt-nugget. No, her fatal character flaw is that she takes that anger out indiscriminately on others.The movie would perhaps be more believable if she were unattractive and sweet. Or attractive and bitchy, maybe. But, unattractive AND bitchy? (Yes, I know, it's "Hollywood Unattractive", but the bitchiness brings it out.) Not even chime rills and santa's magic can do the trick. (BTW, can we PLEASE find something other than the chime rills anytime Santa or an elf or angel does some magic??)The failure of this one falls on the producer and writers. The "harried guy/gal who's life falls before the holidays" is a staple, but the poor harried sap has got to be Likable at the start. I dunno, perhaps they nailed it if their intended audience, the lonely woman who thinks that being bitchy is being a "strong woman", who can't really figure out why her personal life isn't working out, and is hoping for some magic to fix things. I suppose that may be Lifetime's spin on the Hallmark Christmas romance.

Absolutely love this movie! Have seen 4 times already and plan to buy so can watch at least 4 more times. These stars are really good & humorous together. Though being opposites, the chemistry works. Mayim has that cute down-to-earth type of look. Really like her acting. Have never seen her in The Big Bang Theory as I have never watched the show. Will be definitely checking it out now. Ryan has that Clark Kent sophisticated type of appearance. Have never heard of him or seen him act before so a pleasant surprise. He would have made a really wonderful Superman too. Definitely one of my new favorite Christmas movies to watch every season.

I have never reviewed a movie before. There has been many amazing movies I wanted to review and many bad ones... not one of them invoked enough energy to overcome my laziness to write a review. This one did. What get's me the most is that, although formulaic, this could have been a cute holiday movie if it wasn't for the lack of chemistry of the actors. I am sorry to say but the male lead was like a 10 out of 10 and the female was a 5 at most. If we had a better match, a believable match, coupled with awesome chemistry this could have been a great little holiday movie. Very disappointing. What a waste. Better casting next time please.

If not for my admiration of Mayim Bialik, I never would have watched this Lifetime movie but watch it I did and suffer I did. Formulaic movies don't have to be horrible but this one sure was. There may have been powdery snow in the picturesque Montana locale but it smelled like a combination of skunk and cabbage on a hot summer night. I don't blame the actors - they did a nice enough job and it actually started off well but by the time our two leads were forced off their plane due to inclement weather, the plot and dialogue skidded off the runway. It's nice to see Mayim playing someone other than Amy from Big Bang Theory and I'm sure casting her brought over BBT's huge fan base to their first ever Lifetime movie but it would have been nice if she had something meatier to work with. Watch this if you're a Mayim Bialik fan or want to see a shirtless Ryan McPartland.
