Kirpianuscus It has all the pieces of a Hallmark Christmas film.challenges, romance, kids, the him and her, humor and ... Eric Close. so, ideal choice for winter holiday period. but, few problebs are enough for be obstacles to the complete joy. the chemistry between Catherine Bell and Eric Close is missing. the children are great but the script is thin. the predactibility is not surprising but it seems be only link for entire script. and the love story is too...cold. but, after the final credits, it could be defined as nice movie. and this is the only significant thing, in fact.

poohpooh-34241 I watch almost all of the Hallmark Christmas movies but this couple really have no chemistry on screen at all. The kids are super cute in the movie, plus love that they are toy-makers.

zyxnix Catherine Bell is top shelf lady material...however...something has happened to her face. Her checks just seemed to be so puffy...maybe she had a cold or something during filming. I just couldn't get past that. I have to go watch old Jag episodes to get over this. Overall, it was a good movie.

Jack Vasen Most of my favorite Christmas movies have a leading lady who is energetic and quirky. This time, it is Eric Close, as Robert, that has that spirit. He and Catherine Bell, as Lydia, are a great compliment to each other. The movie is enjoyable as we watch their relationship grow. Robert needs to learn to organize and Lydia could use some spontaneity.Many Christmas movies are appealing because of one or more kids. Trinity Rose Likins, as Amelia does a great job as a beautiful little girl. Her memories of her mom are special. Jesse Filkow is her brother, Thomas, and he rounds out the family.This story doesn't surprise us much, but neither does it stretch our credibility. It manages to provide heartwarming moments without doing so.
