Absolutely Brilliant!
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Yet another Hallmark movie that follows that very familiar Hallmark recipe of how to construct a Christmas movie.But I will say that in this instance, it actually worked out quite well, because this movie managed to lift itself out of the average and somewhat generic gutter that these trademark Hallmark movies turn out to be.Why?Well, because of the storyline, although it was predictable to the core, but also because of the acting performances by a very motivated cast ensemble.This movie felt very magical and had something to offer for the entire movie. While it is not a Christmas classic, it is still a movie that is well worth the time and effort to sit down and watch with the family and loved ones.
I love Christmas movies. I especially love Hallmark Christmas movies. This was no exception. I've watched this movie several times now, and I enjoy it every time. There are a few inconsistencies that you need to overlook (for instance, Evan is able to drive the sleigh from town to the inn and then from the inn partway out to the woods but then is suddenly unable to drive it and Sophie must take over????) but they're minor and don't interfere with your overall enjoyment of the story. And I like that, while still being formulaic, it manages to avoid some of the typical cliches (Evan doesn't have to quit or be fired in order to help Sophie) I've come to expect. And I liked the way the ownership of the inn was resolved. All things considered, this was for me I think the best of the new Christmas movies this year. Loved everyone in the cast, loved the subplots with the different characters, and I really wish that Jordan Bridges would become a new member of the Hallmark "stable." He makes a great Hallmark leading man.
I'm a fan of Allison Sweeney and thought she did well. I also liked Jordan Bridges. Crystal Lowe (Rita on Signed Sealed and Delivered) also had a part. Enjoyed the interaction between Sweeney and Bridges but thought the initial scenes showing them madly attracted to each other were not well done. One reviewer said she was too old for him. Bridges is 44 and Sweeney is 41. Enjoyed the movie but probably will not rewatch it.
I fell in love with Alison Sweeney watching DOOL in the 90's when she was the conniving monster Sammi Brady, so she can do no wrong. Still after all these years she looks good in a tight pair of jeans. Young ladies should take notes. Overall, the story is good with good supporting characters. I'm just not buying this guy Evan he looks way too young for her. Couldn't get past that.
