Typical Christmas film starring the attractive Jessica Lowndes, although she has lost some of her appearance over the years. I know her from Autopsy (2008) and Altitude (2010). This film has almost all the characteristics of a Christmas film: Christmas magic through presents

(Christmas decorations for the Christmas tree) from her mother that come out in a certain way. There are also cards with memories or life wisdom. Yes, magic squared! Of course, a new handsome neighbor, an ex who has to work with her, snow, lots of Christmas decorations, the skating rink and other corny situations also pass by. Oh yes, it is a Christmas film and the film is easy to watch. 5/10

Not ho, ho ho, but oops, oops oops....

If you watch a Hallmark production at Christmas that was produced in about 2 weeks with minimal budget, you shouldn't have high expectations. But sometimes even that is too high.

The positive: it is a Christmas film and puts you in the Christmas spirit. It's watchable, I didn't turn it off. The duration is also manageable (don't think it would take half an hour longer). If you want to see a typical cliche Hallmark Christmas movie, everything you are looking for is in this movie. So take a look!

The Negative: Everything about this movie is fake (including Jessica Lowndes' breasts and lips). And why such terrible makeup for an otherwise beautiful woman? This script is worse than something that would come from ChatGPT. The acting is really dramatic, the (reused) sets are fake, the film is predictable. The casting is also dramatic: you just don't believe the main characters and there is no chemistry whatsoever between the lovers. Yes, this is a really bad movie.

But you can also say that the glass is half full: you get exactly what you would expect from a standard Hallmark production. And that is also worth 1.5 stars as standard. And if that's what you're looking for: getting into the Christmas spirit with a baggy sweater on the couch, then the movie will do it for you (but if it hadn't been a Christmas movie I would have turned it off and given it 0.5 stars).
