A Frosty Affair

I definitely thought that this ending was sweet. But the beginning and middle were slow. And that's what makes a movie. It's worth a first watch, if you're like me and love romantic Christmas movies. But I definitely won't be watching again :-/. As much as I dislike giving a review as such, I want to be honest! Maybe you will find it more romantic than I did!

(Some spoilers but nothing major) When you sit down for a movie like this, you know what to expect. Saccharine sweetness that makes you want to roll your eyes but sometimes these movies surprise you so, like me, you remain ever hopeful. Unfortunately the biggest problem in this movie is Kate. Annoying Kate who thinks she knows everything. Invites herself to go on this journey with Redford and then is absolutely NOT helpful at all. Nearly sets the barn on fire, attracts a bear to their belongings because of course she doesn't listen to him. She can do it all, but does she help carry anything along the way? Nope. Does she listen to him about the ice? Not even a little bit.

This movie would have been tolerable if Kate had been a better person.

I really wanted to like this. I mean, it's obviously just a sappy romance movie, but it could've been better-executed. She was too shallow to believe he could possibly fall for her, and he was an underdeveloped character. There were too many rescues throughout the movie, and yet the movie needs rescuing.

Bad script, bad acting but a great scene with a bear.

Was feeling under the weather and selected this movie for light-hearted entertainment. Shawn Roberts shines as the lead and Jewel had some funny moments. Good movie, gorgeous scenery and easy story. warm up some cocoa and slip into a cheerful little film.
