Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

Excellent, a Must See

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

There was something really magical, warm and supernatural about this film. The ex convict was released from prison after serving 10 years, while plans for Christmas and a wedding are all happening. It seemed things couldn't get sticky and messier. But as if by pure sorcery, everything came together and it was so heart warming and moving. I really loved this movie and it's probably the best out of the first three.

The third movie in The Good Witch film series is quite possibly the best one so far. It's set around Christmas time which makes everything seem all the more magical and then add in a wedding. It's incredibly exciting to finally see Cassie and Jake coming together in holy matrimony and the beginnings of their new little family.There are of course the usual challenges this time in the form of poor time management and a bank robber. It adds another emotional layer to the film and makes you root for their success. Nobody wants to see anybody fail around Christmas and you can't help but hope for a special Christmas miracle. I don't care how many clichés they squeeze into these movies as I just can't get enough of their feel good optimism.

As long as folks do NOT get involved in witchcraft as a result of this movie......and can see ONLY the goodness of "Cassie's" gestures...that are inspirational for all of us to be good and do good WITHOUT witchcraft...then I think this movie is more than entertaining...It is remarkably unique with a great purpose!Catherine Bell was casted PERFECTLY! She has the look of beautiful mystery and exuded a delightful charm as the very likable "Cassie,"...who only has intentions of doing good for others. And so she does. No matter what predicament, "Cassie" remains amazingly calm and optimistic. Totally disregards negative issues as being a dreadful challenge and to be upset about them...but instead, puts her energy into making them work out for the best. She sees the good in everyone with whom she comes in contact...and brings out their best. She is forgiving when applicable. She is very giving and caring.So glad a series was made...with each movie being just as enjoyable!

As we enter chapter three of the Cassie and Jake saga, they are still engaged, still exchanging chaste kisses, and still trying to plan their wedding. With Christmas less than a week away, Jake exhibits some uncharacteristic spontaneity, and proposes a Christmas Eve ceremony. Hectic preparations commence.This entry in the series continues the theme of the appearance in town of a suspicious "stranger", in this case a bank robber whom Jake sent to prison a decade earlier on a fifteen-year sentence. Released for good behavior two days earlier, town folk in general, and Sheriff Jake in particular, wonder why he's returned and what he's up to. Could it be to retrieve the loot from the robbery which was never found? Or does it somehow involve his ex-wife and child, who still live in town?Mystery, magic, and redemption have been essential elements of the Good Witch series, and this entry continues the theme. Cassandra Nightingale is one of the most intuitive characters ever committed to film, and in this one, her powers are in full force, always reading people perfectly, and always finding subtle ways to steer them in the right direction.As the standing characters in this series continue to become more fully-developed, one supports the wish for additional entries in the Good Witch series, whether as a weekly TV drama or simply in the form of more full-length movies. This reviewer got his wish for the return of Elizabeth Lennie's Gwen, introduced in the previous movie as a love interest for "Grandpa" George O'Hanrahan (Peter MacNeill). (Old guys need love, too.) Even town busybody Martha Tinsdale (Catherine Disher) is becoming (gasp!) likable.Co-executive producer and star, Catherine Bell, has said, "This character is closer to me, personally, than any character I've ever played." This, plus the sight of her in one fantastic wedding gown, with striking diamond (?) necklace, makes at least one male viewer wish he were "Jake".Thus, even if the Good Witch series ends in a trilogy, as many movie series do, The Good Witch's Gift will have it going out on top.
