Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

This is Lacey Chabert's 6th Christmas Movie and it is her best. I was about ready to give up on her. Finally a movie with some excitement that I don't fall asleep watching it. This was a good role for her. As unassertive Sara Thomas, she is wronged and is granted a wish to have the courage to speak up for 48 hours. Many scenes where she surprises by speaking up- all good. It was well done and the anticipation of what she is going to say/do next keeps the movie exciting. The admiration of her boss is just great and really makes the movie. The role of the boss is well done. Also the zillionaire Wilson was well played. The reviews preceding this one indicate a movie similar to her other five. No. This movie is much better. I will watch this one again and I am very happy it was good.Just to remind. Matchmaker Santa (2012), Royal Christmas (2014), Tree that Saved Christmas (2014), Family for Christmas (2015), A Christmas Melody (2015).

Very cute, but terrible ending. This woman made everything okedoke at the end by going back to her wimpy self, not speaking her mind, not standing up for herself. To make her man happy, she needed to endure abusive, demeaning comments from the man they were trying to get a contract with. She apologizes to him, goes to her man, he finds out she wimped out but got the contract, and he liked her again. No apology from the boyfriend. Bad Christmas movie. Bad. Not to mention appearing to leave out important parts.Very cute, but terrible ending.

I love Lacey Chabert and generally love everything she does. But my husband and I rewound this movie about three times looking to see if we had somehow skipped a part of the movie while fast forwarding through the last batch of commercials. It just felt like a chunk of the movie was missing. It felt like they ran out of money and said okay we got five minutes to wrap this thing up!They never told what happened between her boss, Peter, and his dad and yet the dad shows up at the end all happy. Yes, it shows Peter walking into the house saying, "Dad, dad." And then boom, we are jumped forward in time with his dad flying in to Peter's company and saying, "Thank you for coming home and straightening me out." What? Really? We were never told what happened to estrange them! Peter "changed" enough to provide his workers with Christmas dinner and gifts, even double pay, but not enough to give his workers the day off?? They didn't show how Lacey's character managed to change a real jerk of a client to her way of thinking after her Christmas wish had worn off. The ending really just felt disconnected to us. The effect ruined the whole movie. Thumbs down on this one!

Lacey Chabert has made a niche for herself in the popular Hallmark movies of Christmas. Generally her movies have been above the norm and quite good. Unfortunately this one was not.A Hallmark Christmas romantic comedy has a narrow range of possibilities and outcomes so four factors make it work or not.One, is it romantic. Sorry, but not here. The male leads character was a jerk who makes his employees work on Christmas and refusing to see his family on the Holidays even though he was in town. The better romance would have been between him and Lacey's co-worker. Her role should have been expanded as it would have made the movie at least more comedic.Two, it is funny. No, this one was not generally funny nor really tried to be.Three, is it supported by good side characters and subplots that make the story enjoyable. This is more true here but still it was below par.Four, does it have meaning to the Christmas season. While this is kind of true here, it still could have been set in March by finding a leprechaun as easily as it was set in the Christmas season.All in all, while to be fair there are some good moments, specifically Lacey telling off her supervisor at the Christmas party, and nice elements generally it fails to really be romantic or funny which is not a good combination for a romantic comedy.
