Angel Falls: A Novel Holiday

Same town a different angel and a cute couple. Gabby in the first one was working on town to find Christmas spirit again and she had a lot of enthusiasm to get that change to occur. Don't expect the same. The angel is working in the background in this one. it's a cute movie. Jen Lilly has playing insecurity to almost neurotically annoying. She's the main reason why I didn't give it more stars. But she does get better as her character begins to interact more with the love interest. If you like hallmark movies give it a watch but not worth a rewatch in my opinion.

The blurb for this movie sounds MUCH better than what the writers managed to turn out.

I could never find any chemistry between the leads, and the Scrooge-like face and attitude of the "author to be helped" was just a turn off for most of the movie. And of course, the plot is really nothing more than a random collection of familiar cliches, prominent among them the male lead's decision between small-town happiness and big city success.

The female lead was never anything but irritating to me. She alternated between self-pity and forced perkiness, and I don't think the writers even meant to write a manic-depressive.

Yuck.

Uninspired writing and performances.

40 Hallmark Christmas shows this year is just too many. Cut it down to 20 (at most) and strive for quality over quantity.

Movie 21 out of my 100 christmas movies before Christmas day challenge with 64 days to go.

I picked this randomly and didn't know anything about it before watching it.

It had a familiar face as the lead actress and I thought the two main stars worked well together.

The movie was nice and sweet. A little flat at times but overall it was okay.

Will I watch it again? Probably not.

I'd love to see Jen Lilley in a movie where she doesn't have to wear a coat. As stylish and numerous as they are.
