This Is Our Christmas

So for me the story was fine. Parents and a guardian angel who is trying to encourage a teen daughter to understand the real meaning of the holidays. I have to say that the men in this movie were really attractive. The guys were not afraid to show emotion and I was moved by the performances. Look it is not the most in depth movie but if you are wanting to veggie out with family during the holidays this is perfect. No big story line. Easy to follow. ENJOYED IT-- I am from the Tampa bay area and I loved seeing snow scenes.

What I like about this Christmas movie is that they story was very grounded in reality. A young LA teenager is struggling with the loss of her Mom during the holidays. She is dealing with an empty feeling and is resentful. At the end of the movie she has a real transformation and she seems to come around. My family liked it. I enjoyed seeing Jerry & Ravin having fun in the snow filled mountains. Sorry for the other folks who watched it and did not see what we saw or got from this cute little film. I thought that the movie was pretty well acted considering what I see on Hallmark and Up Tv. The look and tone of the film was solid.

Very happily surprised to come across this little gold nugget of a holiday movie. I began to watch the film and enjoyed the characters that seemed very light hearted and Frank Capra esque. Then mid way through the film a distinguished older woman named Grandma Foxworth comes into a bakery. I kept looking and said to myself, "I know this actress". It was none other than Oscar winner Margaret O'Brien (Meet Me & St. Louis & Little Woman). Margaret and her grandson played by Vincent De Paul (James Foxworth) are magnificent together. They are classic old Hollywood in 2018. The movie looks like it could have been shot in 1940's style. I love Christmas movies filmed particularly in Hollywood. It had great nostalgia for me.

Struggled to find this film on here, as it seems to be called Beverly Hills Christmas 2. This is by far, the worst Christmas film I've watched. The acting is appalling and the characters lack any interesting qualities. The story line is jumbled and cringeworthy. Don't waste your time watching it.

We enjoyed watching it with the family, a classic Hallmark movie. It's a simple sweet film with many cute moments. There are some beautiful images. It was cool to see Big Bear and other iconic LA spots. We found the characters likable. The kids loved to see Santa and the elf. A good holiday film to watch with your family.
