I have seen Meghan Ory and Andrew W Walker in other movies but their on-screen chemistry in Dashing Through the Snow is exceptional. Here is Ash, with her intensely caring nature and buoyant warmhearted personality and strong, laconic, sensitive Dash, haunted by his war-zone past and aftermath. They are a perfect on-screen match and superb with the puppy. They only needed formally to tie the knot in the end to rate 10 with me. DV I think they should team up again. Starcraft would be a good name for the shop.

Our family enjoys watching Christmas movies. This one passed the doze test (no one fell asleep) but I would not watch it again (my son-18 might). The story seems OK but the movie did not succeed in making it interesting or compelling. My wife said she didn't hate it, but it wasn't that good either. I guess we give it a Fair rating.The leading role actress was very pleasant and likable. Her character was fairly well developed and defined. We had some really nice scenes of kids dressed as reindeer, a man giving away puppies, boys switching license plates. No real cohesion to the main story line. The story had some real suspense and surprise, but the film did not exploit it. They just didn't pull it off. It probably could have been a good movie.

BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA.I was looking forward to this film. Andrew W. Walke was in "A Bride For Christmas". That was a "Wonderful" film and I was happy to see him again in a Christmas theme film. (Maybe He will do another) In this film (A minor updating of It Happened One Night) a woman can't board her plane. She ends up in the last rental car the airport has but it is being rented by Dash who agrees to let her ride with him as long as she pays for the gas. The film has a nice quick pace and its never boring but it could of been better. My problems is the subplots. There is a few subplots that get resolved "off camera" which is the downfall of the viewing experience. This is the rare case that a LONGER FILM would of been better. This film is enjoyable but it had so much more potential.

After reading the book I was excited for the movie. It was nothing at all like the book. Even the character names were different. The whole story line didn't flow or even make sense. At the beginning (in the book) Ashley is supposed to be trying to get a flight to Seattle to surprise her mom for Christmas the man behind her is Dash and they have some dealings with the reservations clerk which sets it up for when Ashley tries to get a rental car and Dash is once again behind her and ends up with the car. In the movie he just shows up at the car ticket counter and cuts ahead of Ashley and grabs the car. From there it goes down hill like the kids exchanging license plates. It should of been a California plate but the kids do this is Orgegon so suddenly their rental is from Oregon. Hated this movie and was so upset that it wasn't even close to the book.
