This Is Our Christmas

Not great acting and a ridiculous number of plot lines. Most of which were ridiculous! They could have taken half the plot lines and still had too many.

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.

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.

This is not technically a sequel to "Beverly Hills Christmas". Some of the characters do carry over, but you don't need to see "BHC" to enjoy "This Is Our Christmas". The surprise addition here is the appearance of Margaret O'Brien who is as delightful as you would expect. (In the 1944 adaptation of "The Canterville Ghost" she managed to chew up as much scenery as Charles Laughton!)

The evergreen themes of finding the "true meaning" of Christmas and the importance of "helping others" are front and center here. But honestly - can we or our children learn that lesson too many times?

If you love Christmas movies (as I do), you can't go wrong with "This Is Our Christmas". A very nice movie to watch with the family

Such a cute little Christmas film! We loved it. It made us cry.
