Il Natale dei cuccioli

This was abysmal, even for a Hallmark movie. Nothing about it makes sense. Why is a man who's smooth enough to have six girlfriends too cowardly to break up with one? Why does a rich CEO whose dad is willing to hand him a pile of money at the drop of a hat think he's in financial danger? Why does a CEO who has a home in Silicon Valley and a penthouse in NYC seem completely unfamiliar with the concept of flying? Why was an entire staff of tech professionals unable to come up with the idea to "make this product smaller"? Why does the lead actress have more chemistry with any woman on screen than with the male lead? Why did the screenwriter think Animal Track is an amazing app name? (At least give me a Pooch Ping or a Critter Getter) Why is there a montage of two people doing literally nothing? Why are people riding jetskis in the Hudson River in December?

I have never hated a character/actress more than the lead in this movie. She is completely miserable. Her character is bitter the entire movie. The acting is horrible.

In one part she talks about how she's upset the company owner doesn't give her credit and then immediately after says she can't help him at a meeting because she's "just a therapist." She also keeps calling him a jerk when he's literally done nothing jerky.

Let's not forget in the beginning of the movie she's talking to someone about how it's "30 degrees out" but everyone in the background is wearing t shirts.

Movie is trash. Not even worth watching for the pups since they're only in it for about 5 minutes.

Name of the movie should be change to "12 days of trash"

I saw this movie a couple of years ago and hated it. I noticed it on today so I thought I would give it another chance. Ihave to say it was just as absolutely terrible as I remembered. The female lead is totally unlikable. Even when something bad happened I had no sympathy for her. She was sarcastic, snarky, condescending and just plain mean. Most of the other actors looked bored and I can't really blame them because I was too.

Words fail me to describe the dialogue, just like they appear to have failed the writers when they wrote the script. I have no idea what tone they were going for.

The only good thing was the dogs but they weren't given enough screen time.

I just kept thinking "I don't like this woman, shouldn't the main character be likable?" The males are all jerks and the women are not much better. The whole movie is so negative. The only decent character is the sister and her character makes little sense. Why would she hire a canine therapist? In fact the whole movie makes no real sense. The dogs are cute and the sister is a normal human, That is the only pleasantry about it.

I love Hallmark & Hallmark-esque movies, which should tell you I can tolerate some absolute nonsense, but this has got to be one of the worst movies ever made. Its such a stinker, it makes the average Hallmark movie look like Oscar bait.

The lead actress does actual Joey Tribbiani "smell the fart" acting and the plot has so many holes you could grate cheese with it.

I was so incensed by how bad this movie was, I restarted my IMDB account just to leave this review. Learn from my mistakes and avoid this like the plague.
