It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

This film deviates from the typical Hallmark boy-meets-girl formula in that it has a clever, witty script and two stars whose chemistry is palpable. As one of the side characters remarks of the two, "Bickering is a sign of affection."The script is very well written, and reminds me of classics with Tracy and Hepburn. Paul Campbell is adorable and Chyler Leigh is the perfect foil to his annoying witticisms.Add to that scene-stealer Naomi Judd and you have a truly enjoyable movie.

I am a total Christmas nut - there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of some aspect of Christmas. Yep, am even happy about decorations showing up in stores before the end of summer. Window Wonderland is a delightful story which is well written and well acted. The main characters compete for the favor of their boss by decorating the front windows of the department store where they're employed. The plot weaves in and out, circumstances change, people interplay, and a story, which I believe could end up being a Christmas Classic, evolves. With a wonderful ending, it's sure to satisfy even the pickiest of viewers. It's a fairly new release (2013) so I'm having a bit of a problem finding a copy to purchase but I'm sure that will happen, too. Window Wonderland is well worth the watch and will help warm your heart for the Christmas season.

I didn't expect much and figured I could just turn it off if it was uninteresting; and Window Wonderland was a pleasant surprise.The story draws you in to the point you can at least watch it to the end.The characters started to matter to me and it would be great to see a second movie.I have seen a lot of disappointing movies lately and this was a good break. If you like some of the Hallmark Channel presentations; then this might be a good one for you.

This looks to start out as a standard Hallmark romantic comedy, where she is a brittle and uptight urban girl and he is a relaxed and casually brilliant guy. However, it quickly becomes apparent that they are both facades, come-ons to get people to buy the merchandise they offer, just like the windows they decorate in this good Hallmark Christmas romcom.The essential plot points are all in place: the woman who has been decorating the store's windows for twenty years has left, taking her senior staff with her, leaving only Chyler Leigh and Paul Campbell to battle for the top spot.It's a well-assembled romantic comedy that mostly works, even with Vancouver standing in for Manhattan and a mall standing in for what is, judging from the facade shown in the establishing shots, Bloomingdale's. While I have some issues with the flat, grey light that much of this movie is shot in and the usual overwhelming music, in sum total this is a good Hallmark TV movie.
