A Cheerful Christmas

4/10 - the story was fine, but by God was the main character beyond irritating

Lauren's character is immature, unprofessional and annoying. There is absolutely no chemistry between her and James. The story line itself was a wonderful idea, but it's hard to get past the lack of maturity and how irritating they made Lauren's character. Enthusiasm for her job and love of Christmas is great. She is just too unlikable to enjoy the good movie.

I am starting to wish Hallmark would not come to Ontario to film any Christmas movies. They just keep getting worse. Why is that? You save your absolute, most stupid stories for filming here? I would blame the cold temps for freezing the directors, actors and producers brains - but this is just crap writing and directing from the get go. Who approves these productions? I feel sorry for the actors, truly. It would be more enjoyable to just watch the winter scenery than to have to suffer through this horrid excuse of a movie. Enjoy the long view of the Rideau Canal, nothing else here worth watching.

The story is good, but Erica Deutschman is the worst actress ever! High school drama students are better. I had to switch the movie to something else midway. If it wasn't for her, I would have rated it higher. Also, the stuff hair sprayed curling iron hair curls are SO out! The location is awesome

I wouldn't even give this 1 star, I love all of the hallmark movies but this one was painful to watch !!
