A Christmas Star

This movie is as good or better as typical Hallmark romances. I, too, was initially drawn because of Daniel Lissing, but I found Sara Canning every bit as engaging. (If you liked this movie, you might try "The Christmas Temp" with Canning and Robin Dunne.)

"No chemistry" according to some reviews? Hogwash! The chemistry was palpable (do you not speak " body language").

Weak script? Hey, it is a tradition romance: the plot and outcome were predictable the moment both characters were introduced. We watch it for the personalities and their chemistry. Sloppy astronomy? Very obvious, but I suspend disbelief with these movies anyway, so only a minor irritant.

This movie was a keeper for me.

This is mostly an unusual story, although there is the ever-present Christmas Festival. Sara Canning and Daniel Lissing have good chemistry. The overall acting is mostly fair.

The climax is too sappy, even cheesy, a little too much for me and I like sappy.

From a technical standpoint regarding Astronomy, I give this movie tons of credit because one of the running themes through the movie is light pollution. Other technical aspects were very mixed.

GAC Family has put out once again a wonderful Christmas Movie called A Christmas Star. The two stars that were in the movie are Daniel Lissing from When Calls The Heart and Sara Canning from the Vampire Diaries. The Director of the movie is Jessica Harmon. She did such a phenomenal job at directing , picking the location to shoot. Well done Jessica and also picking the BEST actors to star in it.

A Christmas Star is one of Daniel Lissing's best Christmas Movie he has ever done in his career. Sine he movies to GAC Family Network I think his career has skyrocketed. This is the best move that Dan could have ever done. He was o phenomenonal on When Calls the Heart as Jack Thornton, but this by far is the BEST movie and Character he has ever played. He shows the soft side of him and it shows how diverse Dan is. He can play any character good or bad and he makes you love that character. Thank you Dan.

I absolutely love this movie and recommend it to families to watch and get to know Dan. Well done well done.

Sara Canning as Madeline wow this was her BEST work she has ever done in my book. Sara showed us that you can find love in the right place at the right time as Madeline. Sara has a diverse career. I mean she can play any character and you love that character. Sara played on the vampire diaries, Kevel 16, the right kind of wrong etc..

Dan and Sara the BEST work I have seen you do. Thank you.

I recommend you watching the movie.

An interesting topic but the script is weak. Sara Canning was miscast, she overacts. Daniel Lissing is good, believable as a county ranger. The rest of the cast are ok. The story got dumb towards the end. Nice location.

The writers could have made this a better story with better word-smithing. The chemistry between the 2 main characters is also a bit weak. No believable spark.
