Christmas at the Chateau

Some may claim this is a parody; but, unfortunately, even if that was true, it was a very bad parody. It was uneven with no redeeming qualities at all. The only bright spot was the lovely inn. The only way this dog could have been salvaged is if they made it into a silent film, while showing clips of the inn.

There is nothing good to say about this movie - poor writing, stilted acting, unlikable characters and muddled direction - I could not stand to watch it to the end.

This has some of the most laughably bad lighting and editing I've ever seen in a commercially released movie. In more than one scene the light completely changes from one POV to the next. One scene in particular stands out as a clunker: the bank guy and his fat buddy are in his office. The one guy is sitting. Then it cuts to show the guy walking to the chair they just showed him seated in! And the other guy is doing something like they didn't even know they had started rolling.!!! Just laughably bad and edited by someone who apparently had no concept of what editing involved or apparently had never seen a film before.

If this was made to be a parody of Christmas movies then it did well. I honestly believe this is the worst movie I have ever seen made unless showtime is doing some charity thing where they take submissions for films made by junior high kids on an iPhone. I am sure the people who made it care for it greatly but my friends and I will now make a Christmas tradition to watch and laugh at this "film." Plot is all over the place and makes so little sense.

While there are actors, writers, directors, producers, who are rejected for far better scripts, acting, and production value, these drecks got PAID FOR THIS? And Showtime is paying to air it?

Come on Man! Women are not this stupid and so desperately in need of romance to waste their time on this!
