Boring

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

I usually avoid spoilers. This review has massive ***SPOILERS*** I have to give the story some props because the premise of a writer doing a story on the history of a piece of art (the angel) is kind of unique. But a lot of what goes with that premise is ridiculous. And once we find out about Brady's tree on the roof, bingo, we know the ending.But that ending makes so little sense. The purpose of the angel was not to bring great-grandma and great-grandpa together but to bring Susan and Brady together??? Great-grandpa built the cabin in Murphysburg but lived in Bethlehem and then gave it to great-grandma even after she rejected him??? Susan, the copy-editor and wannabe writer has a month to write ONE story which will qualify her to be a staff writer??? (Is that all she was doing for a month? Because that's what it looked like.) OK, it's a love story. Actually two. And a Christmas story. There's a magic angel involved. I should just go along for the ride, right? I did, for the most part, but the acting wasn't good either. I usually like Jennifer Finnigan, but I thought her performance was stiff and shallow. Jonathan Scarfe had moments, but I also thought he was shallow. Tahmoh Penikett should have been a smooth player, but he was just a creepy stalker.True Christmas story lovers may find this movie OK, but there are so many better ones.

A woman is gifted a wooden Christmas Angel that has been passed from generations and sets to write a newspaper article about the history of it. The angel was originally made by her Great Grandfather for an actress that he loved, but their love never worked out.The angel has had a hand in her grandparents meeting and also in her parents meeting. So her mother is hoping the same ending for her.The potential love interests include an artist with a love of Christmas and a coworker who eschews Christmas and all it entails.Cute concept and movie.

I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 400 (C H R I S T M A S ) MOVIES AND SPECIALS.BEWARE OF SOME REVIEWERS THAT ONLY HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. WHEN ITS A POSITIVE THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. NOW I HAVE NO AGENDA! I AM HONEST! I REVIEW MOVIES & SPECIALS AS A WAY TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT I HAVE SEEN! I HAVE DISCOVERED MANY GEMS IN MY QUEST TO SEE AS MANY Christmas MOVIES AS I CAN. In this movie a woman's life changes in unexpected ways when, in the process of writing a newspaper article about her family's heirloom Christmas ornament, she meets an enthusiastic artist. The heirloom seems to bring people together. Our protagonist is someone who isn't looking for love but is not against it either. The film is one of those you should watch on a cold December Night. It is a very romantic but predictable. This film however is better than the average Hallmark movie. It has some very pretty settings and a story that will spark something even in the most cynical viewer.

During the holiday season tons of Christmas movies come out. They are purposely made to be feel good movies They are great to have on while you are putting decorations up - making cookies or anything to assist with that magical time of year. Which is a great thing especially that time of year. However you can only watch X amount of very expected guidelines with predictable repetitive story endings. Sometimes regardless of it being the holidays you want some substance. This offers just that. It is a great storyline that you really have to follow. Don't get me wrong it is still a feel good movie but part of that feel good you get is from when you walk away thinking wow!!! - That really was a great well thought nurtured storyline with an interesting story told!!! That is just my opinion - I say well worth watching & deciding yourself!!!
