Sealed with a List

I really enjoyed this movie. These two new actors to hallmark are great together. It was incredibly refreshing to see a new young couple with a nice genuine chemistry together. From the beginning of the movie you feel instantly connected to both characters because they truly seem to get along in a good way. It's really hard to not like Wyatt because he is adorable! The storyline was also new and different from most Christmas movies seen so far. Unfortunately, hallmark doesn't make enough sequel movies to there Christmas movies that are actually good. A must see Christmas movie for 2023. Hope to see this couple again soon.

From the start, I liked this Hallmark romantic comedy set at Christmastime because the female lead was different. Katie Findlay plays Carley Kincaid. Carley is not glamorous but cute and bright and likeable. Her best friend is leaving the country, and makes Carley promise to make a list of things she is going to do to change her life for the better. Almost a year later, Carley finds herself still stuck without having made the changes on her list.

Evan Roderick plays Wyatt Redmond, Carley's coworker. He is a spoiled rich kid, son of the owner of the company, and also feeling stuck and unfulfilled. He wakes up late and is late to work every day. He puts zero effort into doing his job. Carley does not like or respect him. Then something happens that requires the two of them to help each other and work as a team.

The movie draws the viewer in because of the likeable, relatable characters. Refreshingly, it does not follow the traditional pattern of a Hallmark romantic comedy. The only thing that I didn't like about it, is that it was too short. I would like to see more develop between Carley and Wyatt. Perhaps Hallmark can make us a sequel?

This was actually really good. Not too cheesy while not taking itself too seriously. No big bad fight to have to make up from just a natural progression of a relationship. The two actors had fantastic chemistry. I am just really happy with this. It was so sweet. The supporting characters were good and the lead characters were great. It's even close to how a realistic relationship can begin and grow. I mean obviously there is TV magic and not real but it's closer to real than other Christmas movies.

The rest is just to fill the character limit Now how rich people act might not be true to life but I wouldn't know as I am not rich. But I am sure there are some pampered rich kids out there.

Anyway A fun cute movie!

First off, I need to say: put Katie Findlay and Evan Roderick in everything. The chemistry was off the charts and felt so natural. So much of their banter had me smiling and/or laughing out loud as a result, and I love movies that make me do that!

Hallmark has definitely stepped it up this year, and this is EASILY one of my favorite CTC '23 offerings. The story was unique, and the side characters gelled super well with the leads. I love a good friends to lovers vibe, and this just hit every single mark perfectly. I truly can't think of a critique, except maybe I would've wanted it to be longer just so we could get some more sweet and endearing moments between Carley and Wyatt!

Absolutely loved it!

Evan Roderick and Katie Findlay are wonderful in this romantic Hallmark Holiday film in which Katie's character Carley makes some New Year's Eve resolutions to change her life and then proceeds to not follow them until her best friend calls to say she is coming for Christmas and wants to know how many she has checked off her list. With limited time to do the items on her list, Carley enlists Wyatt...the boss's undeserving son who was given the job as Carley's boss...the job she should have been promoted too. Carley begins by quitting her job and Wyatt, who does know how to have a good time slowly gets Carley to loosen up as she gets him to wake up early to an alarm and read the analysis reports that make it on his desk.

This film was fun and not your typical Hallmark film. It was nice that both characters had something to offer the other...but what really made this a must see Hallmark Holiday film for 2023 was Katie Findlay and Evan Roderick. Somehow these two suited one another in the best way possible and their interactions were very natural, including their comic delivery. This is recommendation from me and one of the better Hallmark holiday films of 2023.
