I don't know if marketing people themselves are actually the ones writing these stories or what, but if I have to see one more Hallmark movie about a marketer I'm going to throw my hot chocolate at the screen. I'm sick of movies about people trying to reform workaholics in general. "Oh my gosh y'all look how busy I am!" Too busy to watch Hallmark movies I bet, so have mercy on the rest of us. Just once I want to see some chill people falling in love and enjoying their lives. I would ask what the selfless social worker even saw in her but he was one of those dudes who waits around forever to date a woman by being her "friend," so never mind they deserve each other. Kind of a toxic story, the emotional parts weren't emotional, and the funny parts weren't funny.
I actually really liked the concept here, putting a romantic twist on A Christmas Carol. I am also fine with the two leads. I really like Asian women, and though others have complained about her age, Asian women tend to look young longer, and it didn't bother me at all. If there is an issue here, it is just that the male lead was significantly out of her league.
That kind of leads me to my main issue with this movie. The issue that causes me to give it among the lowest ratings I've ever given a Hallmark Christmas movie. The issue is that I am a man, and this movie is SO written for women. Normally, not a big deal, as all Hallmark movies are written for women, but this is such a female fantasy that it gets on my male nerves. Yeah, I know there have been plenty of movies and books through the years that were essentially male fantasies, but that doesn't mean I need to enjoy this.
The fantasy here is that a woman can blaze through a series of great guys with an even greater guy in the friendzone, and no worries, that greater guy will still be there patiently waiting for you once you've finally decided to give up the boyfriend train and show the man some affection for once.
No, I'm afraid her friend would have had plenty of options and been long gone by time she finally came around.
Frankly, this is the only Christmas movie that would have been best served by the male lead telling the female lead to buzz off at the end. THAT would have been a great ending.

Well, this 2021 Christmas movie was actually a nice take on the classic tale of the ghosts of Christmas past. When I sat down to watch "Boyfriends of Christmas Past" from writer Lisa Parsons and director Don McBrearty, I wasn't sure what I was in for. I only saw the movie's cover, and opted to sit down and watch it.
The storyline was good and enjoyable, and as I mentioned above, it was a nice take on a classic Christmas story, updated to today's society and what not. So yeah, I was definitely genuinely entertained from watching this movie. And it is a movie that I can and will warmly recommend.
The story is about Lauren (played by Catherine Haena Kim) whom is visited by past boyfriends in the days up to Christmas, as she is struggling to realize and see something that is right before her very nose.
"Boyfriends of Christmas Past" was nicely constructed and had a good narrative. And that made for a very wholesome movie. And there certainly was a nice Christmas-feel to the entire movie.
The movie has a good cast ensemble, with the likes of Catherine Haena Kim, Raymond Ablack and Paul Sun-Hyung Lee on the cast list.
My rating of "Boyfriends of Christmas Past" lands on a six out of ten stars. This one is definitely worth the time and effort.

This story is a mix of two movies, Christmas Carol and Ghost of Girlfriends Past. The problem with this movie is the lead actors had no chemistry whatsoever. Throughout the entire movie, you see no transition from her end, while his character transitions. The storyline was good, but the actors were wrong. You need actors with on-screen chemistry. Plus, I don't understand how the story can be so long, yet the ending culminates in under 2 minutes.
It's an okay movie but the whole Christmas past thing is over played. Also Lauren... Is not it. Her acting is terrible. Nate is great. I actually met him on set for Degrassi auditions haha small world. They should've cast another female though. Sorry Lauren. The ending was pretty obvious. Within the first few minutes I knew what would happen.
