Christmas-Reviewer BEWARE OF BOGUS REVIEWS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THAT PRODUCTION. NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 Christmas MOVIES. I HAVE NO AGENDA. I AM FARE ABOUT THESE FILMS.This film makes statement that a woman can't be married and have a career. From Lifetime comes a likable film about what is fate and what you really want in life. "All About Christmas Eve" stars Haylie Duff (7th Heaven) as junior event planner. As the film opens, Eve is overseeing an unusual Bar Mitzvah with a Christmas twist. Eve has a demanding boss (Connie Selleca). Her boss likes what she did with this latest party. Pleased with Eve's work she now has eyes on her for a huge promotion. To get that job she has to land a huge client. This client lives in Los Angeles. So she has to miss Christmas with her family. The next day Eve misses her plane to Los Angeles. Now she gets fired. Now she is out of a job. When she gets home she finds her boyfriend is cheating on her. Later the Alternate Time where Eve makes the plane and is living large but she doesn't know her boyfriend is cheating on her! Also she becomes a different person that really isn't very nice. But which is the real time line and what is the alternate time line? The film handles the alternate time line transitions with ease. It is a testament to all involved that this gimmick works as well as it does. Because of the dual time lines the film has a faster pace then most Christmas theme films. Enjoyable. In the distant future I will watch it again.
Miri-5 Dull, clichéd redo of "Sliding Doors" that's utterly devoid of charm or magic. Duff is okay, but the rest of the acting is subpar at best. There was zero chemistry between the lead actors. Poor Duff could have been acting with a giant tree trunk with as wooden as her costar was. I couldn't understand what she saw in any of the men she had to choose from. Add in some bonus unexpected gross sexism to boot! What was with the inappropriate comments in the boardroom and in the phone call from her client!??! I expect these kinds of movies to be unrealistic but that was ridiculous and unnecessary. All in all a complete waste of time.
Julie Randall "All About Christmas Eve" is one of the best Christmas movies of the year! Haylie Duff shines as an overworked business woman who ends up pulling a "Sliding Doors" and gets to experience Christmas through two alternate timelines. Whether she's playing a cutthroat business woman or a bohemian artist, Duff is fantastic, as is the handsome Chris Carmack, who plays her love interest in one of the two universes. Connie Sellecca is perfect as a ruthless boss and Patrick Muldoon is lovable as a goofball executive. The "Sliding Doors" gimmick brings a fresh perspective to the usual Christmas movie clichés, and with Christmas-themed bar mitzvahs, hilarious drag queens, and two great musical numbers... this movie is a DON'T MISS!
Kristie Wilson When I sat down to watch "All About Christmas Eve," I was expecting the traditional Lifetime romantic comedy. However, the commercials didn't really do this one justice. It's a surprisingly deep and witty fantasy about a woman (Haylie Duff) who gets to experience two alternate lives for Christmas. In one, she becomes a super successful businesswoman and meets the man of her dreams (Chris Carmack). In the other, she loses her job and reconnects with her true passion, painting.Connie Sellecca is fantastic as the Miranda Priestly-esque boss, and there's two great musical performances from Diana Degarmo... who I loved on American Idol. (And a surprise cameo from another Idol alumni... I wont ruin it!) If you're looking for well-acted, well-made Christmas fantasy that is completely unpredictable (and even a little artsy!)... then this is a must see. I loved it!
