Picture a Perfect Christmas

One of this years Hallmark Christmas offerings, Merritt Patterson and Jon Cor take the leads in this warm Christmas jumper, feel warm and fuzzy film. Sophie returns home (someone is always returning home in these films) to look after her Grandma, David lives next door to Grandma with his nephew Troy (there's often a child involved as well). The spirit of Christmas is in full force, these two good looking people find each other, find love, find a family, find out how to celebrate Christmas properly. Standard Hallmark fare but also a lovely watch on a Sunday afternoon whilst the weather is rubbish outside.

Me and Shell googled Hallmark towns and are planning a Christmas tour of these type of towns later on when we have money to afford it. Hallmark I am hooked on your Hot Chocolately goodness. You are my first sign of Christmas approaching, when you start to land on Christmas 24.

The scale of 20 for normal films does not apply for Hallmark films, instead we have a Christmas Bauble scale and this one receives a big ole shiny bauble, not a little tree space filler.

Well done to all the actors especially the first four listed under the movie title (on a completely different topic, IMDB should've also included a thumbs down to the actors we do not follow or care for since they decided to take down the message boards and we all know it was politically motivated). Ok back to movie, the main leads were perfect together, she's so adorable and male lead was so handsome. The little boy was cute as a button and I thought he did a great job. The actor who played the grandmother, I remember her from another Christmas movie where she's the matriarch of a very wealthy family, I loved her in that movie and I loved her in this one too. Again I say, well done to all involved in this project- it's just a shame Hallmark can't shoot all of the Christmas movies in an actual cold climate, I must say I'm so sick of fake snow! Other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed this particular movie!!!

And right this very moment we have "A Picture Perfect Christmas " to enjoy. Nothing over done in the acting department- just a solid feel good holiday movie. Enjoy!

I liked this story. The kid was cute and it was something different. The guy wearing 2 different shoes to work was not believable and at some points it was boring but overall it was good.

All the ingredients for a perfect Christmas movie come together with this Hallmark offering. Chemistry between leads Cor and Patterson is very believable and makes for a lovely movie. A cute kid being a kid and not a whining adult moves the story in the right direction. And an adorable dog is always a plus.

Yes, Hallmark got it right this time. Santa will not forget you.
