Great Holiday Movie. Lots of Christmas Cheer and heroine helping out the small town and the local tree farm. Mostly all ups and no downs. Good acting. Bonnie Somerville and Brennan Elliot are great. Bonnie is sweet, determined and easy to watch, not like SOME Hallmark movies where the heroine is a royal pain!! Good show!

Finding your way even when you're not sure where you're going. How many times have we made plans, only to find we have to take a detour. Bonnie Somerville plays a wonderful role and there's a warm connection between her and the young "Jo" played by Madison Brydges. Maddie Duncan (played by Bonnie) sets off on a road trip after being given a Classic Red Mustang; just that thought alone would be exciting for anyone. However, there's much more to this movie; it's about unexpected change and walking away from the "on-paper-perfect-plan" of your life and stepping into a happiness that you never thought could possibly exist.

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 AGENDAMaddie, a high-powered marketing executive, is on her way to a client's wedding but her plans are derailed by car trouble. When a fork in the road leads her to Christmas Valley, a town in love with Christmas, an unexpected encounter and a group of strangers that start to feel like family will have her questioning what she's really been missing in life. Starring Brennan Elliott and Bonnie Somerville.What was nice that this film did not make the business woman a mega you know what. They also did not make the love interest combatants or polar opposites. They even made the business woman someone likes children. Now of course the woman never thought she wanted to be a mom until she meets this one child.........Now what makes this film work is that it is self aware that we have seen this type of Christmas Film played out countless times before. What they did was they made the audience fall in love with the locals and the town itself. This film makes you want to live in the town of "Christmas Valley".Family safe. Young children will be bored. Adults with children will enjoy this nice film!

I'm from Argentina so during Christmas time - which is not a huge thing as it it in the US - it's summer in my country, luckily i've spent the last 6 years in the US during that time and it's movies like this that make me appreciate every journey even more. Christmas is such a special thing and this movie translates exactly that feeling. It is truly magical. Yet this movie is everything we know about Hallmark. The plot was good, there were a few lines which were amazing - as in make me laugh for real, amazing - the characters were lovely, and so was the soundtrack. It's the very first time I notice the soundtrack.It's indeed a very beautiful movie, and it's the perfect one to enjoy on Christmas time. It will be even more special.
