Watch Christmas with Holly For Free

Purely Joyful Movie!

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

What A Delight, Heart Warming Christmas Movie by Hallmark. **** May contain spoiler**** The story starts little slow but story DOES BUILD UP and gives you a good smile. It gives a joy to watch family members struggles but unites and discover value of a family. After Sister dies, her daughter was given to the youngest brother, who used to be the favorite, to take care. With mother's tragic death, little girl doesn't talk nor smile. This brother has now given a goal that most priority is his niece and do anything to make her smile and talk again. As story goes on, there's young lady who had bad relationship moves to this town to open a new toy shop. she fumbles into this brother and his niece time to time and eventually the one falls in love and make little girl to talk and put a smile back in her face. Even though it starts bit slow, it wasn't boring but appreciated the value of the story. Couple thing wanted to mention is, like other viewer, this young man does look lot like Tom Cruise and the your lady is more like Michelle Pfeiffer, WOW, REALLY YOU SHOULD WATCH IT^^

First off... best film with a basset hound. Loved Olive.Secondly and more importantly. Great job Eloise! You seem to have great emotional screen presence! Hope you have a great future in film. Will be watching for you. Keep up the good work!Sean Faris - are you a stunt double for Tom Cruise or what? You gotta lose the Tom Cruise look dude! You did a great job... but get a different look please. I think its mostly the hair-do in this flick that does you wrong.Hallmark films are mostly corny to me... but that makes them fun as well. Not a bad movie for family time.

I watched this movie on TV when it came out, and came away with rather mixed feelings. On the plus side, most of the characters are likable, and the message about the importance of family is good. On the other hand, there isn't much of a plot, and except for a few moments the movie isn't very interesting. Hallmark has produced excellent movies in the past, such as the year-round "Front of the Class," but "Christmas with Holly" isn't one of them.There are three characters - Mark, Holly, and Maggie - Who are facing different challenges. Mark has suddenly become the guardian of the young Holly, who lost her mom three months ago. Holly is so upset about the loss of her mom that she won't speak, causing additional trouble for Mark. Maggie was planning on getting married, but her fiancé never showed up at the wedding. All these characters move to the small town of Friday Harbor, WA to start new lives. Maggie opens a new toy store, which is discovered by Holly right away. Mark starts to slowly build a connection with Maggie, but is still in a relationship with someone else - This relationship goes downhill because his girlfriend doesn't like the fact that Holly is now in the picture, and is not happy when she finds out that Mark has made a new friend in town. All three main characters come together at the end of the story, but the ending is not certain (Holly is speaking again, but you can make up your own story as to what eventually happens with Mark and Maggie).

At the start of the movie, Tim and Maggie are getting married. Only Tim never shows up, though Maggie's dress is gorgeous.In Seattle, three months after her mother Victoria died, first-grader Holly hasn't talked yet and she is having trouble in school. Victoria wanted her brother Mark to take Holly if anything happened to her (she didn't tell Mark who the father was), and so far Uncle Mark is doing a good job, but he doesn't want Holly to be held back because of her problems. Shelby is his girlfriend, and while she is nice enough, she won't put Holly's needs above her own.The solution is to move to the charming little island town where he and Cara run T.A.N. Coffee. There is a good school there which should help Holly.The island is reached only by ferry. And it just so happens that on the ferry, Mark and Holly meet Maggie, Maggie's logical sister Kate, and Olive, the dog Kate got stuck with when her roommate moved out. Maggie thinks Holly is just adorable, though Kate thinks she likes Mark too.Mark and Holly move in with Mark's macho construction worker brother Scott. Their science nerd brother Alex, who works when he gets grants and may move to Maine, also lives there, and he can cook. But the house is big and while the older brothers are both macho jerks who still treat Mark like a kid, Holly could be a good influence. With little work to do, Scott is in the process of renovating, and a pretty pink room for Holly becomes part of that process.Former toy company employee Maggie has dreamed of opening a toy store of her own. She has bought Magic Mirror Toys on the island, though she gets in a disagreement with the longtime manager and sends the older woman packing. This means Kate is stuck working for her instead of going back to college, but Maggie needs her intelligence.Thanksgiving is a disaster, but the brothers have not been together since they lost their father and their mother didn't want to celebrate.The day after is the big grand opening for the toy store. Holly and Mark happen to visit and Maggie and Holly have one of several really special moments.Soon, Holly is in school, and starting to improve. She hasn't talked but she really likes that toy store.You don't have to be Alex to know where this is going.Holly is adorable even when she doesn't speak or even smile. There's just something about her.The main characters are appealing enough. Sean Faris and Eloise Mumford (who looks like Katherine Heigl to me) do a good enough job for Lifetime. This is a Hallmark Hall of Fame production, though, but they're okay. Catherine Berube as the voice of reason probably does the best job of anyone.The town is one of those pleasant small towns, but with a little more culture than Mayberry. The people there are nice for the most part.The best moments involve Maggie and Holly and that tiny house where the fairy lives.And Maggie can Riverdance!It's a nice Christmas story, even of it doesn't quite reach the level of a Hallmark production.
