Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

I love the Lindy Booth character. Both her and Robert Dunne starred in the Christmas Song- 2016 which is an excellent movie and much better than this one. They both did a great job here and their scenes make the movie worth watching. Their relationship is almost identical in both movies. The supporting cast was not that supporting except the little girl and the lady that played the grand mother. The other characters were just kind of stupid and added little.The Christmas tree decorations and the living kid Christmas tree singing "I saw three ships come Sailing in on Christmas Day" was very good. I did doze toward the end of the movie so this is an indication that the supporting cast stories were kind of boring (I did rewind and watch).

Cheri Jamison rallies the residents of her beloved Manhattan neighborhood to participate in a Christmas tree contest when her cherished local library is abruptly set for demolition. Cheri finds herself up against an ambitious developer Tony Shaughnessy.The film is a little slow. However the lead is very beautiful person and she has a charm to spare. This film follows the Christmas Film Template but so what. What I liked most about this film was the ending where we see all these beautiful Christmas Trees. The film is family safe. The film will most likely air again at Christmas time on LIFETIME. I would watch this again because again I love the ending & seeing all these beautifully decorated trees.

In a New York City community, during the Christmas season, pretty red-haired librarian Lindy Booth (as Cheri Jamison) receives some devastating news. The library where she works will be demolished to make room for a condominium, with two full bathrooms per unit. Behind this dastardly plan is materialistic, but attractive Robin Dunne (as Tony Shaughnessy). By the way, they are both unmarried. In order to save the library from run, Ms. Booth decides to have a Christmas tree decorating contest. The script attempts to explain how this is going to help reverse the demolition and gives some vague guidelines for the contest, but none of it makes much sense... The most standard contest rules are broken, and nobody seems to notice..."The Twelve Trees of Christmas" is dull and predictable, but several in the supporting cast get scenes worthy of a demonstration reel. Shauna MacDonald is most effective. For some reason, Melanie Brown (aka "Scary Spice" of The Spice Girls) assumes the villain role. The handsome Casper Van Dien wanders onto the set a couple of times. Best thing about this TV Movie is the work of director Michael DeCarlo and photographer Russ Goozee. They fill the screen with the colorful set decorations nicely and balance them with sleek floors and table tops.*** The Twelve Trees of Christmas (11/16/13) Michael DeCarlo ~ Lindy Booth, Robin Dunne, Shauna MacDonald, Melanie Brown

A sweet but not saccharine nudge at the preservation versus development struggle in any major city, this movie slightly echoes the rivalries of "You've Got Mail" or "Two Weeks Notice".Lindy is convincingly earnest and sweetly intelligent in the lead role, and she's balanced by Robin Dunne as the romantic lead (better known as Will from Sanctuary, another intelligent role).The supporting cast are quirky but not stupidly so, and each has their own gently heart-warming story.Casper Van Diem is there in name only, except for a moment here or there of very rare face time.A worthy entry into the seasonal love-fest.
