"Same Time, Next Christmas" is a Comedy - Romance holiday movie in which we watch a couple who reconnects every year at Christmas, despite their lives taking different paths.
I found this movie simple and predictable but enjoyable enough. While the movie brings some festive cheer and holiday spirit, it ultimately struggles to break free from the typical rom-com formula. The combination of both Lea Michele who played as Olivia Anderson and Charles Michael Davis who played as Jeff Williams is charming enough, their relationship lacks the depth needed to make the story truly engaging. The plot itself is predictable and feels overly familiar, with few surprises to keep the audience invested. Despite its weaknesses, the movie does succeed in creating a cozy, feel-good atmosphere and the picturesque, warm, tropical setting helps. While the festive vibe is perfect for a holiday watch, despite missing the emotional depth or originality in the plot. In conclusion, I have to say that "Same Time, Next Christmas" is a decent choice for those looking for a light, predictable holiday romance and don't expect more from it.
