Appuntamento a Natale

The plot is interesting and the movie could have a lot more potential if the plot was told better is some parts. Especially in the beginning of the movie a lot of things seems to be rushed

I wish we could learn more about the characters, especially Layla, so we could relate to and understand her more.

I liked Layla and Teddy together, their chemistry was cute and i liked the way they got to know each other and how their relationship was built.

Overall it was a sweet Christmas movie that we all know how it will end with good actors, one of those movies you watch when you get home after a busy day to relax.

Quick thoughts: The outfits starred, especially Layla & Teddy's lip-syncing contest tandem! I appreciated how the soundtrack slowly grew into the movie. Both Christina Milian and Devale Ellis nailed their respective roles, the professional divide kept the banter dry. Plus, I would love to run around a city doing side quests as an unknowing first date! The sets were the perfect pinch of Hallmark with a splash high-quality production to fulfill my holiday movie wishes. This silly rom-com will certainly be under my Christmas Tree this year!

6.8/10 (7) (Definitely Recommend)

I was browsing all the streaming services for a movie to watch when this one caught my eye. Immediately after watching the trailer, I wanted to watch this movie. However, I didn't have very high hopes for it. In the end, I would say it only slightly exceeded expectations.

The only thing I'll say, that may spoil the movie slightly, is that I should've been more aware at the beginning. The ending was not what I was expecting until about halfway through the film.

While "Meet Me Next Christmas" isn't super unique in its storytelling, it's the chemistry of the actors and characters that make it an enticing watch. Christina Milian and Devale Ellis bond very really well together in the pursuit of a non-existent Pentatonix ticket. There's a fun bond between the two that makes you cheer them on as they seek that ticket.

There's a humanity to the story. It goes beyond a love story, but includes an emotional connection between strangers. It's the Christmas spirit that really gets it going. Plus, Pentatonix for me has always been associated with Christmas because that's the type of songs I first heard when I was introduced to them.

Overall, I really enjoyed this movie and I would definitely watch it again. I enjoyed the love and human connections. While it's not super Christmas-y in its storytelling, for some like me, it may get you into that Christmas type of feel. It's a cute romcom with great chemistry between the leads, and while it has aome parts that are weird, they eventually make the film work. The end end overall is that it may seem cheesy to some, to others I do believe you'll have fun with it.

That's it for now. Thanks for taking time to read my review. Happy watching and enjoy the show!

Honestly I'm confused by some of the reviews. I just watched 4 Christmas love stories in a row and this one was less cheesy than those ones. Sure it's a hallmark meets jingle all the way type feel but I thought it was overall a cute message. Adding pentatonix was awesome for me, but if anything they were a bit cheesy and awkward at moments. Still fun to have their songs play in the background and the ending was cool. She was set on how the universe works, ive met girls just like this. So the writing didn't bother me much. I've met many a crazies. He was a man that went above and beyond while catching some feelings. Really not as bad of writing as some of the comments I read. I liked it enough to want to watch it again someday. Maybe I'll change my mind. It helped that I saw some pretty awful writing before this movie.

I watched this on Netflix.

If you have never heard of Pentatonix, you will by the end of the show. Actually, Pentatonix is a singing group from Arlington, TX. They were on a show called the Sing off and have been recording ever since. This movie features two actors that I'm very familiar with. One is Christina Milian. I love how she has turned into this Hallmark Christmas movie specialist. She is more versatile than that, but she has found a niche that works for her and I love that for her. The movie is somewhat predictable. It lacks some of the wit and punchlines that could have made it more memorable, but overall Christmas time is hear and I didn't hear Mariah Carey once in this movie because again, have you heard of pentatonix? I gave this movie a 7 strictly off my respect and appreciation for Christina Milian, been a fan a long time.
