Angel Falls: A Novel Holiday

Hannah and Ryan were friends when they were young, then they grew apart when he moved and he got the job she wanted. Now, he is back in town and Leslie's mom hires him as a "special consultor" at the little publishing company.

This was okay. Nothing to do with the original Angel Falls. In fact, it could be seen without watching the other one first. They do share the city and the concept, but that's it. I like Jen Lilley, I think she is great. But, honestly, i'm getting tired of her. I want Hallmark to expand their leads a little. My favourite part was Carlo Marks. His character was very cheerful. I also thought they had great chemistry.

I do think that the Angel character was completely unnecessary in this case. We could have had the same result withouth him. He was the "listening" ear to Hannah.

FYI Jen Lilley had her baby on set with her so she wasn't pregnant. She looked amazing. I disagree I felt the leads had chemistry and the story line was typical Hallmark. I do agree this year they had way too many movies this year and I can't quite remember most of them after they air. Only a handful did I think were amazing. Often I find when I see the movies again I enjoy them more and more over the years.

I read a review and it states it was filmed in North Bay. My mother grew up there so I love seeing the area. I visited my Grandma when I was very young over 45 years ago so my memory is faint. I only remember her house and the snow. They owned a store on Main Street (Harry Mulligan) that has since burned down.

Uninspired writing and performances.

40 Hallmark Christmas shows this year is just too many. Cut it down to 20 (at most) and strive for quality over quantity.

I'd love to see Jen Lilley in a movie where she doesn't have to wear a coat. As stylish and numerous as they are.

7/10 - while I felt as though the guardian angel subplot was completely unnecessary in this context, I throughly enjoyed this Hallmark flick
