A Godwink Christmas: Miracle of Love

I look forward to new entries in this series especially when it's based on a true story. This one says "inspired by" and there's no telling what that means in terms of sticking to the actual story. I say that because it becomes relevant in this movie especially as regards the last part of the movie. Some incredible things happen that qualify as miraculous. Unfortunately, the movie appears to associate some of that directly to Joy.

The first part of the movie focuses on the volunteer team working on a project to finish the construction of a house for a family who lost everything in a fire. The team, often inspired by Joy's ideas, quickly becomes totally invested in making the family's new house a welcoming home. There are many sentimental moments. The story appears to be heading for predictable, but there is a huge twist before the climax.

There is good chemistry between Katherine Barrell and Alberto Frezza, (I was mildly surprised to see that Barrell's character had the same name, Joy, as her character on Good Witch.)

This wasn't my favorite or the Godwink film series on Hallmark, but not for lack of trying. I liked the main couple Joy and Eric. They meet during a two week service gig. He flunked out of seminary school and is going to try to be a writer, she just finished her degree as a nurse practitioner and is just waiting to take the boards.

The two meet at the airport and fit together like two peas in a pod. While making a home for a family who lost theirs in a fire, Eric and Joy get closer to one another. Big conflict arises in that Joy has a boyfriend.

My favorite part of these Godwink films has become the photos of the real families at the end.

More religious than most of the hallmark films. If you appreciate that this might be a film for you.

Based on a true story, this is one of my very favorites of the year!!! Acting was great. Love the storyline, characters, service, aspect, and love. Just enjoyed watching and really feeling the story. Looks like hallmark put some extra into this movie, and it shows.

Also, check out Mrs. Miracle story and for good fun The Christmas House. Hallmark 2021 only had a top 5 movies for me so far but now, it's 6! Sweet as can be!

A very nice storyline about a team of young people working together on a service project to help a family who have experienced a house fire. Very slow moving and plot was lacking, but ending very touching as it showed how God can intervene in extraordinary ways.

Watched this movie just to look at Alberto Frezza. Happy days!

Movie wasn't too bad either. Didn't think that the actress playing Joy was as bad as some reviewers thought.

Nice that it's a true story too.
