Christmas-Reviewer 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.This Christmas film is a winner. George Newbern and Roma Downey star and after all these years I still hope they will do some other film together. In this film The Sons of Mistletoe boy's orphanage is a happy place. Run by the charismatic Jimmy Adams (George Newbern, Father of the Bride), the home has become one big family. But when its largest benefactor dies and leaves the orphanage to his daughter, Helen Radke (Roma Downey, TV's Touched by an Angel), Jimmy worries about funding, especially as the old house begins to show its wear. Just when it appears that Ms. Radke is going to pull the plug on her father's investment, a Christmas miracle changes everything.This film channels the Disney films of the 1960's & 1970's. George Newbern has an effortless charm that makes this film a standout.
blizzardstar I love this movie.It is very heartwarming and a movie that makes you feel good about people.Great to see Roma Downey in a movie,I love her in Touched By An Angel.Any fan of hers will surely enjoy watching this movie. It is one that I will watch and enjoy many times in the future. If you like Lifetime movies or Hallmark movies,I think you would enjoy this movie. A movie everyone in the family can watch. I would recommend this movie as one to be enjoyed during the holidays. If you have not seen it,watch it when it is shown on TV,I think you will enjoy it.A small town with some great people in it to bring out the best in each other.Just a real feel good type movie that makes you smile after watching.
cada123 Some films are diminished by predictable story lines. This is not one of them. Rather, the very fact that one could almost call out what was going to happen, scene after scene, was in some strange way suspenseful: would I guess right? Yes! Oh, I am so glad!Maybe this was due in part to the unfamiliarity of seeing Roma Downey playing the heavy for a change. Then again, it was not only her scenes where this happens. She came across as believable, once I got over the fact that here, she's no angel. It was nice to see her with a character that has a bit of growing to do. Another definite plus: the boys from the home played off each other nicely. I got the impression that these young actors truly cared about each other, as much as their characters did.This is not a movie to get one's teeth into. It is a bit of a schmaltzy tear-jerker, with which to warm your soul on a cold winter evening. It is comfortable and delightful, with just the right touch of romance and the Christmas spirit.
Sean Richard McCarthy Nothing special, but a cute little movie for the Christmas season. It's about a Foster Home endangered by the new land lady. It is comical with a touch of drama. -->> AAA, OH YES, ROMANCE!! Yes!, > You will see this as well. This movie is ok, but NOTHING SPECIAL!
