Memorable, crazy movie
I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
This movie has a great message. You could even look past the bad acting if it weren't for the horrible directing. I've never seen JW Myers' work before, and hope to never see it again. The constant frame change gave me a headache. Instead of developing a scene, he would just constantly frame the actors face while they talked, then snap cut to the next actor talking. It overwhelmed what was really a good movie.The movie itself was very predictable, but aren't all Christmas movies.You lose something, you learn the true meaning of life, you gain something. Plus, keeping the family together is a must, especially with Christmas around the corner. The best part is that the kids learn to respect something other than money. They learn that family and friends are the true wealth in life. Again, this movie has a great message.
OK, firstly, it's obvious I could be perceived as biased, considering I'm in the film. But I'm also one of those "film" people; I wouldn't b.s. a product just to push myself. That being said, this movie does have it's mild, rather unnoticeable to the untrained eye, low budget flaws, but it is EVERYTHING A HOLIDAY FILM SHOULD BE!A Christmas Tree Miracle covers a lot of very real issues many of us face in the world today, that we may never really pay much attention to. From young love & ignorant apathy, to living beyond one's means, being ungrateful for your blessings, and true loss... It wraps it all up in a clear, simple, yet beautiful story that reminds viewers what the holiday season, and life in general, is truly about. It's only downfalls are with overall production: the extensive post production voice-overs take a little away from the performances at times, otherwise the acting is quite strong throughout. And the lighting & editing seem to lack well versed finish. That is why I, someone who is in the film, deducted 2 stars from it's total: I give it an 8/10. Regardless, the story, the feeling, still shines through like the lights on our trees.A Christmas Tree Miracle very well make any viewer tear up, at very least you will get some of those feel-good goosebumps while watching it. And I bet that if given the right push, watching it could become a holiday tradition for millions, year after miraculous year.
This film is funny, heart warming, thought provoking, unique, family oriented and honest with a touch of seasonal magic. If you're looking for a film with a message of love, caring, fellowship and also for the entire family this film is it! From joyful, seasonal holiday themes to real life struggles, this film touches on many subjects and is sure to leave you crying AND smiling at the same time. The characters are all extremely believable with their own hardships, positive qualities, weaknesses and unique abilities. This film truly touches on the reason for the season!Unlike many other holiday themed films, this film does not focus on Santa, presents or reindeer but focuses on a real life struggle of a modern family who seems to have it all. The story accurately depicts the ability to get caught up in material gain, and sends out a clear message on how giving to those who need it most is the best gift of all. Giving to those in need can change everyone's life for the better, and this film follows a family as they battle and learn from the concept of living simply with the best intentions instead of living extravagantly with all of the wrong priorities.
My family really enjoyed this movie...It is a great story of faith, love and Christmas. It really makes you appreciated the important things in life and not to worry so much on the things that aren't. I think that the story line is one that a lot of families, especially families today, can relate to. I know that my family did. It is so easy these days to get consumed by work, friends and money...this movie helps remind the viewer that life is short and to see the joy in the small things.I really recommend this to anyone who loves Christmas movies and loves basically any feel good movie. It will now be a part of our family Christmas tradition!Great Job Kevin Sizemore!!
