Bringing Christmas Home

Wonderful story that captures the heart and has a sweet adventure while love develops. The beauty of of this movie is that all cast are incredibly talented (main, supporting, extras) that bring to life this beautiful story. I have a great respect for military personnel who sacrifice their lives. This movie honors that perspective. The sets, the costumes, the music, the make-up are perfect in my opinion. This movie also addresses the stress military personnel experience in the line of duty without getting too graphic and the challenges returning to civiian life --- all written in good taste. LOVE IT!!

"Bringing Christmas Home" is a touching reminder that the greatest gifts we can give are those that honor the past, connect us in the present, and inspire hope for the future.

My family and I loved this heartfelt Christmas movie. It focuses on our military/veterans and also family and love. Jill Wagner and Paul Greene star in this film and really do have great chemistry and on screen magic. An antique store owner enlists the help of a retired military professor to help reunite a lost artifact from the war to its owner. It's a beautiful story as they work together to solve the mystery in time for Christmas. There's of course a love story or two! Great acting from Paul Greene and Jill Wagner. Highly recommend and cannot wait to rewatch with my family again this holiday season. Also beautiful music and song at the end.

This movie was absolutely beautiful and so endearing, I loved it!! There was such a rich story and mystery that honors and celebrates our veterans and military. Paul Greene is my favorite actor and he absolutely shined with the beautiful Jill Wagner. Their chemistry was electric and also sweet. I was teary eyed in multiple parts, in the best way. I haven't felt this connected to a Christmas movie in a while, I'm so glad I watched this premiere. Paul has an original song featured in the movie that really brought a whole new level of emotion and heart to the story. Would love a sequel of this or series based off of this story 10/10!!! Beautiful veteran Christmas tale.

One of the better Christmas movies produced by GAC. But, Jill Wagner should have been the highlight of the movie.

Her appearance and performance were less than we've come to expect from her. I understand Wagner had to cut almost all of her lovely blonde hair off, for another job she was filming around the time she made this, but that auburn colored wig was just awful.

Maybe it was because it was so different from the blonde hair we have come to associate with Wagner.

They could have tried harder to make it look real, by at least attempting to match her natural hair color.

Past the appearance of one of the main characters, I actually enjoyed the movie. I just wish GAC & Hallmark would either try harder to make military themed movies look real, or not try so hard to dumb the topic & dialogue down for the viewers.
