As a Hallmark movie expert, this is one of the good ones to catch this 2024 holiday season. We had rewatch to catch who wrote dialogue. It is very fun to watch. The story is more believable than other Hallmark movies. Yea, it is illegal to party crash and pose as a lawyer, but it is all part of the storyline and good. Both lead actresses were perfectly cast. The post skiing scene was especially funny for us non skiers. The Indian themed wedding was so beautiful and gave representation. Felt the ending gave a perfect resolution to the conflict of the storyline. Keep Holiday Chasers part of your Hallmark Countdown.

I won't bother with "Holiday Crashers" again. Aside from elements of the plot being somewhat close to illegal in the real world, it was kind of silly.

Although I enjoyed - as always - Lynsey Fonseca's performance, Daniella Monet as Bri really got on my nerves.

Props to Hallmark for casting Jag Bal as one of the love interests. I enjoy seeing a little diversity in these Christmas movies, unlike certain other networks where that seems to be a bridge too far.

Good to see Hallmark regulars/veterans Keith MacKechnie and Laura Soltis. They are both very reliable in the acting department, and "Holiday Crashers" certainly does not blot their respective copybooks.

This was a disappointment. I really like the lead actors, but the story....lie after lie after lie. These women aren't teenagers! They are full grown and still playing games like children! How could anyone take them seriously? Not to mention beginning relationships with a lie? Never a good beginning to a lasting, healthy relationship no matter what the romantic comedies try to tell us. And because of the deception and childishness of the characters, they are not as endearing as they could have been. I just didn't enjoy this story. The sets were gorgeous; all the actors beautiful....the story was just lame and dumb and some parts downright silly.

Two best friends, Toni (Lyndsy Fonseca) and Bri (DanielkanMonet) try to add some excitement to their mundane lives by crashing exclusive Holiday parties and assuming false identities. They each meet a guy they are attracted to but things go bad when Justin (Chris McNally) thinks Toni is a lawyer and enlists her help on a potential business deal, but the truth is she had a panic attack and never completed law school. The situation becomes more complicated because Justin's recent breakup involved a lying girlfriend and one thing he hates are liars! There's also a hidden deception with Bri and her flame Vinny (Jag Bal). The lead actors have great chemistry. The movie is entertaining and a bit unique, although it has the usual Hallmark "conflict" as part of the plot. My complaint, as with all Hallmark movies, is that they need to tighten the middle of the script and allow more time for the script to focus on the story conclusion which always feels hurried and rushed and squeezed in to the final 10 minutes. In this movie we want more of the relationship between Toni and Justin instead of the proverbial "a year later" and a lot happened in that time. BUT a nice movie overall.
