My Best Friend's Christmas

Colton Little is a doll, and basically the best thing in the movie. The dialogue is stilted and awkward and the main girl is SO bad!! Someone needs to start making decent Christmas movies.

Sad, the acting was really bad. The plot is familiar to too many other movies. If the acting was better, I would give a 5/10. Underneath the lead actresses makeup, I think a pretty woman is there!

To be honest, this one didn't last on our screen for more than the third scene. The female lead is one of those actors who thinks that emoting requires CONSTANT head wiggling while she delivers lines. Of course, it doesn't sell the dialogue, it only distracts from it as the viewer becomes increasingly fascinated with whether the next random wiggle will be the one which makes her so dizzy she topples over.

Her ultra-irritating little girl voice didn't help.

Then the second actress came on and damned if she didn't have the same poor style, though her voice WAS irritating too, at least it wasn't as bad as the lead. However, she added pouty to every line. Yuck.

We have no intention of suffering through all that for the entire movie.

Would love to review this film but because the music was SO loud could not hear most of it, if any film makers ever read these reviews please please think of people with hearing problems. Apart from that the acting was not that brilliant, Seen this story more then once in loads of films, in fact ended up turning it off because of the Loud music missed most of it,

Very rarely do I rate one of these Christmacy/Hallmarkish made for TV rom coms below a 5, but this one was bad.

Now I can actually enjoy a movie where the heroine has more chemistry with the guy she does not end up with. Angrily Ever After is an example. But with this heroine, I didn't like her with either guy. She had more romantic moments with the ex she was trying to get back, but they fell flat to me because of the way she was treating his girlfriend. Grant, I think his name was, was in a committed relationship with Bella. Ashely, our heroine, smiled up in Bella's face, pretended to be her friend while undermining her to get close to Grant the whole time. This was not cute in the least.

So we get ice skating, long intimate walks etc with Ashley and Grant as Ashely tries her best to reconnect with him. Yet no romance at all with Ashley and Liam. Liam really was the best friend, and their interactions were platonic while Ashley chased Grant.

I only watched to the end to see Ashley apologize to everyone. I could not root for a HEA btw Ashley and Liam, as he deserved so MUCH better.
