Avis à la une
Normal acting, typical xmas story.
What throws me back is is the ilumination, I don't kniw what the director of photography wanted to show, it's really basic, it doesn't look really profesional, it's well made but something is missing. The angulations some times are strange... Also the edition it's really bad, too long shots, artificial cuts...
It's a big budget xmas film student project.

Watching on prime and I'm not sure if my internet is lagging or if the movie feels like its lagging its weird cause it looks cute but that is annoying.
The story is obviously a take on Cyrano de Bergerac. Even Holly mentions that in the movie. There are a few of the common Rom/com tropes, but a lot of the common Christmas ones are not in this movie. The general outcome is predictable.
For me, two things were noticeable on the negative side. The audio sounded like it was cut in a busy area like a bar because background conversations were distracting. Very annoying! And many of the conversations between Holly and either of the two male opposites were awkward. Strange dialogue. Those with Josh might have been meant that way, but it was even true with David on too many occasions. As a result it was hard to see chemistry with Elisabeth Harnois and Jonathan Togo, but there was some.
There are a couple of funny moments. The confrontation between Josh and the recruiter with what followed was a good one. David's "date" to the prom is a nice touch also.
According to this website, the filming location is Lafayette LA. That's interesting because snow on the ground is prominent throughout the movie. A web search confirms that snow is rare, even problematic, in Louisiana.

This poor movie is SO bad. I am a Christmas movie junkie, so I am predisposed to like, so it is truly bad. It looks like it was filmed in a closet, except for the lawyer's hangout bar. You will not see any tourism shots of Lafayette LA. The dialogue is completely unnatural. The requisite little girl is very cute, but her dialogue stinks too. The story is Cyrano de Bergerac. There is very little Christmas in the movie. The two leads are planning a faculty ball, which my university would never do. I had to look up the references, I don't know what age group this was aimed at. Stephen King IT, is that in literature classes now?
What is with the audio and the music? Loud rings and bells and everything sounds like they filmed it in the bathroom. Horrible. Storyline and acting was mediocre.
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesWhen Emily mentions that Cupid's Arrow was written by one of the Facebook engineers, this is a reference to the short film Compatibility (2017) written and directed by writer Jack Marchetti. The short film is about a Facebook engineer who creates an algorithm that predicts romantic compatibility. The feature film version of that script was a 2015 Nicholl Fellowship quarter finalist.
- GaffesDuring one of the film's many "text-on-screen" sequences, one of the messages that appears misspells the word "Christmas" as "Chiristmas."
