Blending Christmas

A very tired vehicle to reunite the Brady crew. All the actors seem to be looking around to find the drama, and find their lines. Marsha, Marsha, Marsha .... Help!!!

The acting is below average. The story has no depth or spark and the conflict is way overblown. Aaron O'Connell and Haylie Duff are comfortable together but don't really have a spark either.

I thought this was a cute little homage to old Sitcom stars. Many of the original cast of the king of sitcoms, The Brady Bunch, was in this, including Cousin Oliver! Jennifer Elise Cox even had a role. She was the actress who played Jan in The Brady Bunch movie (Marsha, Marsha Marsha!) and pretty much stole the show. She has her moment in this one with her "Michelle, Michelle, Michelle" (and her "Laura, Laura, Laura," in case we didn't get it the first time.)

Greg Evigan of BJ and the Bear, and Telma Hopkins who added a ghostly presence. As well as Beth Broderick of Sabrina the Teenage Witch. She is always a welcome presence in a movie lending as always credibility, warmth, and common sense.

The plot was pretty slight with Aaron O'Connell trying to propose to Haylie Duff (7th Heaven among others) at a Dude Ranch (where else?) in the midst of feuding families.

It was harmless fun.

I am at a loss as to what the source of IMdB25288's hatred and spitefulness towards Ms Duff is. Not content with spewing vitriol and insults with one review, He goes in for a second round in a follow-up. The woman has 74 credits spanning from 1997 to 2021 and one on the way. Someone likes her. Maybe she broke his crayons when they were kids.

**Oh, I see his 2 reviews have been removed. Or maybe he deleted them. Good.**

I'm not sure if anyone else would realize that Northern Arizona has massive snowfall in the winter months. It's not likely you could go shirtless in the morning. I'm not complaining because Aaron O'Connell is very fine. But him being shirtless for 2 minutes of this train wreck of a movie doesn't warrant the other 83 minutes of torture. The Brady Bunch reunion was really lame.

I think this was an attempt to give paychecks to a bunch (pardon the pun) of old 70's tv show actors.

I think the only smart one to pass was Maureen McCormick.

Unless you are bored out of your mind and want to go retro then watch but don't have any expectations.

Let's face it nobody watched this film for Ms. Duff. Regardless of her appearance or acting!! I, simply watched it for the Brady Bunch Reunion plus Oliver. I mean that was the catch to draw viewers in, in all of the ads I saw for it they spotlighted them. Congratulations it worked!
