This film is definitely aimed at a younger film audience, based on its secondary story and the cast as a whole. It does deliver to some degree, but is almost a complete rip off of another story about the 12 wishes of Christmas or something like that.
The lead guy is cute in his way and the bonus with him is that you could use his ears to pick up satellite wherever you are. I always liked having something to hold on to.
Vanessa (Sugar Motta from 'Glee') actually does a great job in the lead female role, it's just a shame that the story and directing don't support her to show her full potential. It's not a serious story.
The 'Boyfriend' Rod, is a terrible actor. The best friend is one of those annoying millennials that takes a selfie every five minutes and Morgan Fairchild would not be my first choice as Mrs Kringle, she can't even smile properly with all that work she's had done!
So overall, not a great supporting cast, maybe that's why Vanessa Lengies? shines?
I might watch it again in a few years time, so I'm not saying it's awful, but it's easier to pick faults than to see the good things. Oh yeah, I've just remembered, she has a great wardrobe in it, some lovely dresses.
A traditional "Be Careful What You Wish For" story set at Christmas.
