A European Christmas

The start was a little cheesy but I persevered. Caprice's acting skills lack merit merit and all she did was smile inanely, from one scene to the next. The cafe scene where she photographed a family was a cringeworthy cliché. I hoped it would get better when the plot shifted to Serbia but even the scenery couldn't save it. The Ryan Reynolds lookalike brought some hope to the film because he acted naturally but it just didn't happen.

Christmas films have improved greatly since the early rom/coms with some reliable acting. I expected more from an up-to-date offering. I admit I didn't watch the full film as I became continually distracted. I watched A Miracle in Bethlehem (2011) earlier in the week and it put this film to shame.
