The 12 Days of Christmas Eve

Kelsey & Spencer have wonderful chemistry acting together. Kelsey Grammer can stand alone, but his daughter working with him made this film so heartwarming. I love the story of this show. Everything about it is what Christmas should be about. Everyone enjoys nice gifts, but love and time are what matters. I loved the entire cast, and I hope more are to follow. My very favorite part was them singing The Irish lullaby from one of my favorite Bing Crosby movies, Going my way with Barry Fitzgerald. Maybe you guys can do a remake of that together? I think Kelsey sings nice and could definitely pull off remaking any Big Crosby movie from the Golden Age.

This movie had a good idea, and some mid to good acting, but it fails multiple times

The original premise is good, it goes on a route(Redemption or death) none of the movies I have seen of the type touches(Except maybe groundhog but that is not "learn or die" that is more like "Die to reset the day" kind of thing)

The whole point of the Groundhog day situations is that they learn by failing You got Murray's situation where he fails a ton and like 10 years go by in the movie(Really, google it) You got Pete's christmas(Which I prefer over "Christmas every day" to be honest, where he learns little by little, always finding new things to learn about himself and those surrounding him and the growth, as in Groundhog, is slow and steady You even have Happy Death day where she also learns little by little all that was wrong with her life and outlook

And that is where this fails abysmally, you have Santa guiding him, or even outright telling him what is wrong, that rests importance to the learning curve and makes it feel rushed by the end.

And then there is the lessons learned thing, when he realizes what is wrong, he still gets it wrong a few times.

The end goes on a high note and it is refreshing to see a character outright speaking about christ, which I find sad, but in this day and age seems to be taboo(Like speaking about christianity as a religion and talking about the nativity in that context, not in Jingle Bells context)

So that ending(and the good acting from several of the actors) saved this movie... will I see it again? Only in the holidays(Yeah, I am a christmashead, I sometimes see xmas movies outside of the season), but it could have been much better.

I wasn't expecting much when my girlfriend and I start watching "The 12 Days of Christmas Eve", but the film has pleasantly surprised us both. This movie ignited the Christmas spark in me and I am really grateful for it. "The 12 Days of Christmas Eve" does have this something which movies rarely have. Well done to everyone involved in making this film: screenwriter, director, actresses, actors, technical staff. Love for ourselves and others, generosity, kindness and being always in present time with people you love, are messages of this movie we all should remember and always have in our minds.

Mawkish Starts off ok but gets tedious in the middle.

Then just irritating.

After a while I just fast forwarded it.

Lacks any of the the Dickensian charm and lessons that are so wonderful in most of the Christmas Scrooge movies.

Not a good groundhog movie either.

Off putting with Kelsey Grammars feet too.

Supporting actors not great so must have been low budget.

How lunch more of a review do I need to write to submit this. Ridiculous that I have to have so many characters that I am just filling the space to get this submitted.

Halve the number please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not sure what scrooges the people that have this 1 or 2 stars are but this is a beautifully executed holiday movie.

It's obviously not an original script but it's been written in a way that is highly relatable and connects with the audience.

I wouldn't call this a typical feel good movie but there are emotions throughout more like a holiday rollercoaster.

Acting is on point and I'd be happy to watch this again or possible every year.
