Is the guy playing her father really old enough to be her father? And is Trish Stratus supposed to be the same age as him, and therefore 20ish years older than her?
A Christmas In The Rockies.....Yes corny, yes cheesy, bad acting, poor casting. Yes all lumberjacks daughter's are lumberjacks too. It's in their blood and their hair, makeup, and clothes always look perfect even while working out. Yes her father was 1 year old when she was born....but I don't really expect anything else from these movies. They are soooooooo far from reality that it makes me laugh. Plus extremely predictable. The only interesting character in the movie was the man who played Grandpa Sam. Please Santa buy some acting lessons for Mike Shara. Anyway Merry Christmas everyone. God bless.
Main chick born in 85
Dad born in 87
Boyfriend dude born in 84
Why???? Why isn't the dad in his 60s?!
I'm not paying a bit of attention to the story at all, so can't really say if it's good or not, but the age thing really threw me through a loop. It's yet another Christmas moving with the same music as the rest.
I have to come up with filler words because the required characters are 600 and I don't understand why. I see many other reviews much shorter than this and now you're stuck reading this blabber.
Jingle bells, jingle bells 63 to go.
Santa, reindeer, snow balls, elfs, Christmas tree.

'Christmas in the Rockies' (2020)
Opening thoughts: 2020 was a variable year for Christmas films, there were quite a large number that were average or less but there was also a good number that were above average and more. So much better than expected considering the circumstances, even if rushed production tended to show more so than usual. Will admit to having seen my fair share of above average and more Christmas films recently, but 'Christmas in the Rockies' is not one of them. Am not always keen on anything focused on competitions in this type of film and 'Christmas in the Rockies' does little to change my mind.
Good things: It does look nice, especially the scenery, and at least looks professional.
Did think also that the two leads were pretty good. Kimberly-Sue Murray and Stephen Huszar are very charming and give their roles heart and light-hearted-ness. Their characters aren't too perfect or over-flawed.
Bad things: The rest of the acting is another story. Most of it is going through the motions-like and most look too young or out of place. Mike Shara is more older brother than father figure and the lumberjack competitors are the wrong build and too neat to pass for lumberjacks. The characters on the whole are dull and can grate. Murray and Huszar's chemistry could have done with a good deal more spark, and it would have helped if the romantic relationship was more fleshed out and less rushed. There is too much focus on the competition, and the events surrounding it lack tension, don't go very far most of the time and are too contrived and formulaic.
Furthermore, the story drags quite a lot and the lack of tension and charm makes it feel really bland. The ending is very easily foreseeable early on and is too neat. The script has a very awkward flow and has too much cheese and corn, with the more dramatic parts being too sentimental. The music is forgettable at best and has little distinction. The direction is routine.
Concluding thoughts: Overall, very weak.
3/10.

Another movie with a contest to save the family _______ (logging company). Three weeks to train for a physical activity her competitors have been training for their whole lives and outweigh her 2-1 or more. So like many rom/coms don't even try to reconcile anything close to realism. But this one stretches way past even those. The story is lame with no real highs or lows or surprises. The "tag line" for the movie promo doesn't make sense and also gives away what might have been the only surprise way too close to the end. The climax plays out like all these movies do, just different details. The dialogue isn't much.
Mike Shara is too young to be Katie's dad and his acting is bad.
Kimberly-Sue Murray and Stephen Huszar are OK together, but Katie and Harrison cozy up pretty darn fast.
