Please watch this movie on mute. Even on mute you will understand how horrible this film is. I was hoping it would be cheesy.... Nope, straight up brutal!I am convinced that the actors family must have written even the mediocre reviews. The acting is unbelievable.... The only decent actor is Tony... Well and the dog!Please.... If you watch this rate it properly. Don't rate it a 4 and then say it is garbage.If you have any Christmas spirit watch 10 minutes, realize it is the worst movie available and rate it appropriately.

Absolutely the WORST. There is LESS than no chemistry between the leads Belle and Hunter They go from being gruff enemies to love in a split second after an abusive session with Hunter almost halfway into the film. The estate manager, Angie, intervenes and -voila- bad behavior gone poof! Background music never stops and has no holiday feel at all. The story is lame and Tony's pursuit of Belle using her scatterbrained father is dated and ridiculous. This movie has as much Christmas appeal as Armageddon. Hayley Duff isn't a terrible actress, but she moves like a cardboard cutout doll with no depth. Her look for most of the film is matronly, shes overweight for such a young woman, and her prominent nose is three times the size of the male lead -- well just about everyone else in the cast. Maybe some acting lessons and an appointment with Hillary's plastic surgeon...

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 FILMSThis film had allot going for it. A likable star and a writer that knows how to write a good story but this film failed to keep me interested. Now I like Hailey Duff her co-star Nicholas Gonzalez fails at almost every scene that he has his shirt on. With her California hometown in the rear-view mirror, Belle heads north on business to facilitate the estate sale of a mansion. While the job is a dream, the client, Hunter Lowell, is not. But, as the two spend more time together, his icy demeanor begins to melt. Although their relationship is budding, Belle's long-time suitor, Tony, arrives, sending mixed signals to Hunter while adding chaos to the holiday season. This film might of worked better had they of cast a better actor for the part of Hunter. Nicholas Gonzalez just doesn't have the charm to elevated a pulse. Andrew W. Walker would of been a better pick.

Haylie Duff has grown into such a beautiful woman, I really enjoyed her performance in Christmas Belle. I think so many stars are led to believe skinny is that only acceptable size and they struggle like hell to achieve that, and I'm sure a large part of the male population probably like skinny and are responsible for that attitude, I on the other hand appreciate a lady with that nice natural beauty, a bit thick and curvy in the right places, like Haylie Duff. From my point of view, all too often Hollywood have these really beautiful stars like Haylie Duff and they do not produce enough movies while these stars at the peek of beauty! We see so much violence and special effects being used as a substitute for talent. It's like a breath of fresh air to see a sweet love story, as in the movie Christmas Belle, I'm sure I'm not alone in saying, please keep it up! More of the sweet beautiful Haylie Duff!A fan!Josh
