A Belgian Chocolate Christmas

But this one does not really work for me

I guess for me I needed more actual chocolate making, this movie is all about dialogue and how tasty chocolate is. No actual production of chocolate outside of dialogue

I very much appreciated how clean the movie is. I appreciated no over the top drama.

The actors were ok, I doubt either of them knew anything about actual belgian chocolate making. At around 55 min into the movie they actually do cook up somehing, for me its too little too late.

I believe my wife would like this more than me.

I can ay that I generally enjoy GAF more than this one.

Unlike others, I really liked this movie. I have spent Christmas in Brussels for work and this movie definitely captured the mood and the feel of Belgium at Christmas. The story may be a little light, the acting was ok, but overall I enjoyed this movie quite a bit.

The mood of the movie gave you the feel of being awkward, but then again Kate, Jaclyn Hales, is an imposter, so awkward is in keeping with the story line.

I'm all for these types of movies: Good story, good actors, great location and Christmas in 3urope. I hope Great American Family continues to bring us more movies like this one.

Particularly GAKKY. No surprise coming from GAK. A woman goes to Brussels to learn about chocolate making impersonating her friend. She has minimal skills in the field. The actress portraying her is just awful. She is very fake. The man playing Matthias, the Belgium chocolatier is also awful. Can we please hire someone from Belgium with an actual accent???? Someone with a bit more emotion??? There is NO chemistry between the main actors. None at all. Don't waste 2 hours watching. Or rather, go watch the version from Hallmark with Lacey Chabert and Will Kemp which is a whole lot more interesting and romantic!!!

Well for starters, the movie is boring and it drags. The main characters have no spark or chemistry. The male lead is especially stale. I found myself wondering why he was casted because I did not find him interesting in the least bit. I managed to make it to the over half way mark and I had yet to see him show any interest in the female lead in any capacity. The writing is lackluster and there is a lot lost in the execution of bringing the story to life. I love clean movies. I subscribe to GAF specifically for that reason and there are plenty other movies that I like on GAF but just not this one. Complete fail on all fronts.

Great American Family.... Love you guys! Honestly!

But what was this? The strange close-ups, the lighting, the sound quality.... This was very difficult and quite frankly impossible to get through.

We turned it off after 45 minutes. And the bacon/gravel voice was just so bad.

Sorry guys. This was a miss. Maybe we will give it another shot during the holiday season but this just came across as a low quality, almost high-school type production.

We hope this is not a sign of things to come. We are looking forward so much to Great American Christmas year 3 but they must be better than this.

This was just not an enjoyable movie.
