Santa Tell Me

This movie promises romance and Christmas magic, and let me tell you it DELIVERS. So nice to see Hallmark make a genuinely funny comedy that still has all the heart and feels a Christmas movie should! I love Erin Krakow from When Calls the Heart and have REALLY been missing Daniel Lissing from the show, and it's SO AMAZING to see them on screen together again. And Erin's other leading men? Oh. My. Goodness. I couldn't believe some of the surprise cameos who showed up to try and win her over. Watched it twice already, truly everything I was hoping for and more. All I want for Christmas is a sequel!

I enjoyed watching this movie very much! Seeing Jack and Elizabeth from 'When Calls The Heart' aka Chris and Olivia, together again was heartwarming. This couple has amazing on-screen chemistry and I hope Hallmark goes on to put them together in future movies.

This movie has a unique storyline, which I really liked. It shows the magic of Christmas seen from the eyes of a child and rings it back again 25 years later, when she's grown up. Olivia has a choice to make in order to find her soulmate, her true love.

The only part that was unrealistic was giving Olivia's childhood home a makeover in 3 weeks. In real life it would take much longer than that. However, I really could care less because the rest of the movie made up for that.

Olivia (Erin Krakow) is an interior designer who is forced to work with a new producer and director for the Christmas special, enter Chris (Daniel lissing). They inmediately start bickering about the project, and he suggest working on her childhood house. There, she finds a magical letter that warns her she will meet the love of her life called Nick. She then has 3 meet cutes with three different Nicks.

I love Erin, she always shines as the leading lady, she is amazing. And i'm gonna be honest, I was a bit bitter about Daniel coming back to Hallmark after going to the other channel and leaving WCTH, but the truth is that his chemistry with Erin is off the charts.

Unfortunately, that did not translate into this movie. They have few scenes together, not enough to appreciate it. You can only truly appreciate it in the final scene. Erin's character has way too much scenes with the dates, (featuring Hallmark's Benjamin Ayres and Christopher Rusell) few with Chris and almost none in the project they are working.

I think that this script was not ideal for this reunion and it sucked. I would have liked to watch them in a movie in which they spend all of it chasing something and forcing them into funny moments together.

And while it's a enjoyable and magical Christmas movie, I was disappointed by it.

Here was get the start of an antithetical romance, and the antithetical part lasts far longer than they manage in most movies where they try the trope.

A woman doing a Home Makeover type of TV show thinks she's getting in a rideshare and begins bitterly complaining about a man who's been assigned, out of the blue, as the director of her special. Of course, she'd gotten in the wrong car and the man she's complaining to IS the director, who of course doesn't correct her mistake until he finds out everything she has to say. LOL

Then a bit of the mystical pops up as a letter from Santa tells her she will find her true love in a man named Nick. She promptly meets cute with not one but THREE Nicks. Trying to figure out which one the mystical note means, she dates all three.

On the other hand, she starts to like the director more and more.

Cute movie, and one we might decide to watch again.

This movie was funny. It was entertaining. It was slightly unexpected. And all around a great hallmark film.

Olivia having the social capacity to date 3... wait 4 men AND organize teams of people to design a house AND film scenes for her show - I'm impressed! That must be her superpower.

I would say my main criticism is that kiss at the end. Did I need to watch them try to eat each others faces? No. It was a little much and not very pleasant to see. Maybe the actors were a little too familiar with each other after acting in When Calls The Heart together. But overall they were a cute couple in the film, I was definitely rooting for Nick in the end..
