Un Noël en Californie: Les lumières de la ville

You never know what to expect with a sequel, usually disappointing. California Christmas City Lights was fantastic. The story had a great pace and Lauren Swickard once again carried the film with her incredible talent. Her chemistry with her hubby is nice to see also. Sometimes you see actors and they have no chemistry and tanks the film or show.

David del Rio did not disappoint. So funny. Love the Brandy character.

Well written, well done!!

I saw this trending at the top of Netflix and decided to watch it. I honestly loved it. The storyline was entertaining and there were a few good laughs. The chemistry between the two leads is great but Lauren Swickard really carries the film. I'm excited to see what this team does next.

Just like last year, this is a great break from all the unbelievable crap going on in the world. It's great just kicking back and following Joseph and Callie on their city Christmas adventure. Fun, feel good holiday entertainment!

Definitely a step down from the first one. Very formulaic (especially the ending) and some very annoying scenes with Manny. The movie never felt like Christmas time despite the decorations.

Maybe it was a mistake watching this right after the first one. It wasn't bad but somehow missed the charme of the first movie. They still had a storyline around the farm but that seemed pretty random too. At that point I started to get the vibe that Manny and the guy from Josephs old work were sublty going somewhere so it didn't make sense to me.

It's still a nice romance and I always enjoy sequels to find out what happened but it's not cheesy enough for a good christmas watch.
