Holiday Hearts

Many motives to love it. For story, party, romance and two ex school mates together, under the looks of a girl and her Miranda. A book about Humphrey and the first Christmas party of a inn after 25 years of precious tradition. A earm film. Yes, a Halmark one. But a very, very, very nice one.

Peyton and Ben, childhood friends, are reunited when they have to take care of their friend's daughter Lily, while he is in the hospital. All three of them spend time together while doing Lily's family Christmas traditions.

I like both Ashley Williams and Paul Campbell. Ashley lights up every scene she is in with that beautiful smile of hers. I truly enjoy watching her. I like Paul. I have seen him before. There was good chemistry, the kind of friends chemistry, not the romantic one. But, hey, i'll take it.

April is just around the corner and still months away from Christmas, this really makes you feel how magical that time of the year is. Maybe more than other Hallmark movies i've seen lately. I love when they have to go though a list of to-do before-event.

I'm glad that for once it was the guy who had to make decision whether to take the job or not. They always have the women choosing between love and career. So, kudos for that. I'm glad I watched this. A must watch for any time of the year, not just december.

Peyton Canaday (Ashley Williams) is an accountant who wants to demonstrate her extended talents as an event planner at her parents inn. Enter Dr. Ben Tyler (Paul Campbell) a beau from her past. A child by the name of Lily indirectly helps them find out what is really important during the holidays and the other 364 days of the year.

Williams lights up the screen and Campbell is just as infectious to watch. They make this holiday movie a good one to watch.

Bring out the hot cocoa and cookies this one will leave you with a smile and wishing everyone a Merry Christmas.

Characters in Holiday Hearts themselves do the same thing that creators of most Christmas movies do - cross off items from a checklist of Christmas related things (Christmas decoration, the tree, cookies, presents...). You won't find anything outstanding here, but it's a feel-good movie without unnecessary conflicts and misunderstandings. Ashley Williams is all smiles, and Paul and the little girl aren't bad either. Ideal when you're in the mood for simple and lighthearted holiday fun.

I absolutely adored Paul Campbell in Windiw Wonderland, but it seems like since then his Christmas characters have been so dull. This one is no exception. He seems bored, just going through the motions. No heart to this one, was it the writing or him. The story isn't too bad in this one, didn't care for the little girl actress either, a bit inexperienced and rushed. But the 2019 Hallmark Christmas movies have been overall a disappointment, this falls in that category. Bring the spark back Paul or skip the holiday movies.
