Best. Christmas. Ever!

The best word to describe this movie was weird. I heard someone say it sounded like AI wrote it or something. And that is very true. I don't understand exactly what they were going for, it's like someone saw a movie before and decided to make one but really didn't have any idea what they were doing. Like an alien made it and was trying to blend in with the humans. Nobody was offensively bad or anything acting wise, so of the people in it I wondered what they were doing there as they were "too" famous for such a low production Hallmark channel type movie. Netflix is just shooting this stuff out and canceling good stuff, it doesn't make a lot of sense to me. I would not recommend this weird movie.

This is certainly not as horrible as so many people are making it out to be. Like a lot have said, Christmas movies are supposed to be cheesy. The kids are cute. The story really isn't bad. It is cute. People are saying that it's confusing. There's nothing confusing about it. People are saying the plot is all over the place it really isn't. One thing I do agree on is the acting is a bit wooden they all could've done so much better. Who knows what the heck was going on during the filming you never know. As I said in my heading, I certainly won't watch this again, but it was cute enough. No big deal I'm not going to cry/& moan and groan about getting my time back. I've always had a crush on Heather Graham, And always liked Brandy, and I've always liked Jason Biggs, & the actor that played Brandy's characters husband I remember him from zombie nation. He was great in that , but they really all could've done better! Now., onto the new season of the Crown!!

I'm sorry to put down a Christmas movie, but the acting and directing was almost 'laugh out loud' bad.

The story is quite cute, but the directing, script and acting just don't bring the best out of it at all. I was quite shocked by it really.

The actors don't display any authenticity, so it's hard to connect to them or empathise with them. Maybe they were struggling with a poor script and poor direction, because they have acted better in their other films. The plot being a bit too far fetched at times doesn't help either.

Shame on you Netflix for releasing this while jacking up our subscription costs by multiples of the inflation rate!

Pinche Netflix you got me good on this one. The plot is caca. I still do not understand why I actually watched the whole thing. I guess i so bad that you keep on watching waiting on something to happen. And it kinda does, but holly cow, I'm still trying to figure out what in the world I watched. Starts decently, I digged the set up of the story and the characters but, really? And truste me, Im a very easy customer when it comes to consuming entertainment, but this movie is ridiculous. Please Netflix: I need back my hour and twenty minutes I spent watching this movie, plus the time i spent looking for something to watch.

Easily Netflix's most inexpensive film yet. You can tell just how many corners they cut in their edit to just give us a fluffy movie that tries to hard to be like Elf and falls flat on its face.

The little boy in the film was the most entertaining part, because the acting from the adults just didn't cut it. You would think Biggs and Graham, who were the 90s names of teenage comedies, would have some sort of chemistry but they did not.

Graham, who looks a lot like Michelle Pfeiffer and Madonna now, is reminiscent of Charlotte from Sex in the City here and perhaps Kristin Davis would have been a better choice to cast for her part. Norwood was okay, but as soon as she spoke, I just wanted Awkwafina for her part.

This was about a 2.5 or 3 out of 5 until the last 20 minutes. The film just got overly cheesy and defied too much logic.
