Time for Them to Come Home for Christmas

This movie was thoroughly enjoyable. I am a huge Jessy Schram fan. Haven't seen her in anything I did not like. She and Brendan Penny develop great chemistry. Their characters help each other throughout the movie - as well as spreading some cheer along their road trip. The outcome of "Jane's" amnesia snd "Paul's" anxiety is handled very well.

I had to do a double-take with Lisa Durupt (as Annie, the sister). She is brunette in this movie - not blonde - as she usually is. I recognized her voice - but she looked so different. Not sure why they made her brunette next to Jessy's blonde - sisters might have the same hair color!

Fun movie though...

A stellar Hallmark cast with a sweet surprise appearance from Allison Sweeney! Always a joy to watch in any Hallmark movie!

Enjoyed the story, and especially how it wove in other characters!

Brenan Penny is a favorite! As are several of the supporting cast members.

Somehow, Christmas movies with amnesiac heroines seem to work, at Hallmark. The idea may be trite, but is developed credibly, again. Schram and Penny are quite good, acting with empathy and restrain. The story is simple and gentle. Just right in the Holiday spirit. Should you not be looking to be blown by shocking drama, you are encouraged to watch it and dwell in warm feelings, while resting cozily on your comfy couch.

Brendan Perry and Jessy Schram, I love them both and they have great chemistry. They have never disappointed me.

Then there is Lochlyn Munro, I am used to seeing him playing almost a soap opera villain type. Normally when he enters a scene my first thought is, what sleaziness is he up to this time. But no, Lochlyn proves what a good actor he is, he played the local sheriff as a competent, caring law enforcement officer. Even after the amnesia victim leaves town, he continues to work the case. Kudos, Lochlyn, great job. Left me wishing he had more scenes.

The film moves pretty slow at times and for that reason probably not a good family film, the kiddos will loose interest pretty quickly.

My advice: watch this movie.

The two main characters had excellent rapport and chemistry between them.

Acting was excellent with entire cast.

Puts you in the best frame of mind.

Well done.
