Project: Puppies for Christmas

I'm so happy to find a modern movie that has two main girl characters who set a good example in the way they treat each other, manners, morals and respectful attitudes towards adults. It was a wholesome movie that the whole family could enjoy. Have your tissues ready!

The only reason I put it on TV was because I saw Cavaliers in the stock image. Then with John Ratzenburger, I had hope for it being decent. I remember him playing Santa in a Hallmark movie once. And TG for him, because the rest of it was a disaster. It was poorly written and badly directed. A 7th grader would have shot better camera angles. I don't know if this was a charity film sponsored by the Morman church or the long lost niece twice removed who asked good ole uncle John to through her a bone in the film industry. Sad to say, I'm grateful for fast forward options to by pass the bad acting and bad directing. I have never seen a bad Christmas movie, but now I have.

I guess an extremely low budget caused this movie to suffer with poor direction, amateurish camera work, haphazard sound management, shoddy editing, etc. I don't think they planned it like this. A shame, because the story it tells is a beautiful one. Most of the actors came through, despite the above shortcomings. If you grit your teeth while watching this movie, you'll end up being happy that you saw it, but somebody should really do a remake.
