    Meh, but really liked Kim.

    The actor that played Ben acted like he was asleep, very boring. Kim was awesome though, a little overacted at times, but wow she looks great!!! In fact best she has looked in years, not like the other plastic surgery friends. Being a big Facts of Life fan, great to see the old crew, well sort of, won't spoil that. Also love the Edna Edibles nod. Aside from that, the quirky friends were fun, but didn't care for the slow paced story, lack of honest heart, no touching, choking up moment. Sorry not going on my next year's watch list.

    Great Hometown Christmas Movie

    I love this movie. The characters were selected appropriately for this. I read some of the other reviews and this was a TV movie and it was written well for it. Keep them coming because I enjoy well written Christmas stories...reminds me of family and home!

    Nothing special

    Another save-the-family-business which also means save the town. It all depends on a secret uncovered in the effects of a recently passed relative, in this case her father. In order to make it work, the leading lady, Emma, has to work closely with her former beau who also happened to take over the company from her father. You can figure out how it turns out, both in business and personal lives. The story has no great highs or lows or surprises.

    The chemistry between Kim Fields and Adrian Holmes is good. They have decent screen time together. They spend a lot of time reminiscing.

    There's absolutely nothing wrong with this movie. It's just like a hundred others showing 24/7 on at least 4 cable channels. But nothing in it really grabbed me either.

    I LOVED this movie!

    This was such a cute movie!! You cant expect everything out of this movies. We know they're going to end up together at the end its just how these type of movies end but its the journey to get us there is what's important in a movie and this movie was light hearted and fun. I loved the chemistry between the leading actors. Kim did a really good job. Her character was passionate about Christmas and keeping her families legacy alive. If you just want something that you can just sit back and watch that puts you in a good mood this movie will do it for you. But if you expect there to be a perfect script then you'll be disappointed but the people who love Lifetime movies for what they are this one is so cute! I'm gonna rewatch it again.
