Every Day Is Christmas

I wasn't sure I would like this film to start with, the cranky "Scrooge" character really was quite abrasive and offensive to watch, but I'm glad I stuck with it. I actually got a bit teary as they ventured through her "Christmas Past". The idea of using her parents as the Ghosts who visit was clever and makes you feel that emotion a bit more.

However, even in the end she still didn't seem to have grown that much and I'm pretty sure she wasn't good enough for the guy. He was lovely, but I couldn't understand what he had seen in her before the change and even after.

Also, I'm not sure why the Christmas Carol books are always so big when it's only 187 pages?

I wing rush back to watch it, but I probably will come back to it again.

I felt it delivered on point to the original. Gloria Reuben was a standout. The unbelievable part for me was the love story. Generally the acting was on par for a Christmas story. The characters were likeable. One scene that really stands out for me is when Toni Braxton locks herself in the bathroom - she looks so small.

Honestly I'm not a big fan of Christmas movies, but this was a cute spin on a classic. Wish it were a little longer, but was well written and acted. Two thumbs up. Toni was refreshing and committed to the role.

Two virtues define this film : the memory of late parents and their status of guardian angels and the return to Dickens classic book.

This real good points are enough for to not be very critic about movie mistakes.

The other virtue is just the effort of actors to give coherence and soul to a not very inspired , in run, adaptation. The effort of Toni braxton is obvious, admirable, in fact, against scenes in which a sort of vulgarity seems too present.

But, no doubts, it is a nice christmas film , against forced end.

The truth about connection with late parents, yes, for me this is the point . And this film use it in just beautiful manner.

I Have Reviewed OVER 500 "Christmas Films and Specials". Please BEWARE Of films and specials with just one review! For instance When "It's a POSITIVE" chances are that the reviewer was involved with the production. "If its Negative" then they may have a grudge against the film for whatever reason. I am fare about these films.

This is another "Christmas Carol" ripoff that has no charm or warmth to anything.

Toni Braxton is very wooden here. The dialog delivery is very painful to the ear. The rest of the cast does what it can with such a terrible screenplay. What is tired about this version is that it has a twist here and there but you how it will end.

I would like to see a version where things turn out different. That would be a true "Christmas Miracle"
