Right, well when I saw that Maverick logo on the screen, I have to say that my expectations to "A Holiday For Harmony" went from slim to none, as their track record of movies that I've seen has been questionable at best.
But in the spirit of Christmas and the fact that I was doing a Christmas movie marathon, then I decided to give writer and director Amiri Koronz Thompson's movie a fair chance.
This movie was a swing and a miss. The writing was atrocious. I haven't stumbled upon a more ridiculous and laughable Christmas movie in all of my time. It was cringeworthy and physically painful to sit through this dumpster fire of a movie. Well, truth be told I didn't even make it far into the ordeal before I gave up out of sheer and utter boredom. There was nothing Christmassy about this movie, and the storyline was just rubbish.
Then there was the acting performances, which would best be described as wooden, lacking spirit, out of tune and generally just downright dull. Of course I wasn't familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list, but then again I can't say that I was the least bit impressed or inspired by what I witnessed on the screen.
Amiri Koronz Thompson delivered a movie that was as far away from sappy Hallmark Christmas movies as you could possibly get. And this is definitely not a movie that I will be returning to attempt finish watching. If you enjoy sappy Christmas movies, do yourself a favor and give "A Holiday for Harmony" a wide berth.
My rating of "A Holiday for Harmony" lands on a one out of ten stars. You would find more entertainment by staring into a glass of eggnog that you've just given a good swirl.
