    Painful to watch

    I taped this movie to watch later. Having a hard time watching even fast forwarding through a lot of it. Mateo always grins like a silly school boy from the start. No chemistry between the actors. It's just plain painful to watch.

    Typical Christmas movie

    These Lifetime and Hallmarks are all have same premise; which is single mom who goes back to hometown because she haven't been there in long time. Then, of course, the mom happens to meet like the only good looking guy in town who is single and does like everything. We all in the end of the movie, there going to fall in love in the end of movie. This movie is predictable.

    Ratings

    How do you get your ratings? One 8, two 5s, and eight below 5s gives it an overall rating of 5.9? Not believable due to the low ratings.

    if you can get thru the first half of this movie

    I found the first half of this movie to be slow and boring. The female lead's story was that of a spoiled brat. I had a hard time dealing with her whining and pity party. The lead actor pretty much carried the movie for me and the ending was good.

    nice intentions

    It is a Christmas film sustained by good intentions and by Marco Grazzini. And, in some measure, it is enough for a Hallmark movie . The try of supporting actors is not so bad, the steps of reconciliation father - daughter remains a sketch with unrealistic result but the film is real good intentioned and this saves some of it.

    The problem is the hole between first and second part and the improvised solutions for final.

    But, sure, it is only/ just Hallmark. Easy, nice intentioned and around romance. So, difficult ( and unfair ) to be very critic about it when the expectations, before the start credits.

    • Goofs
      When the packages fall off the roof of the car, only four packages fall and they land is a fairly linear pattern on the road. When Erin stops to pick them up, the packages on the ground are not only in a more random pattern on the ground, but none of the packages are left on the car's roof.
    • Quotes

      Farrah: Your daddy calls this his love tree.

      [Farrah giggles]

      Erin: I didn't know he did this.

      Farrah: Oh yeah. He says he carves the names of all the people he loves on this tree because even if he can't be with them to watch them grow up or grow old, he can watch this tree grow big and strong and know that everything will be okay.

      Erin: So sweet.

      Farrah: He couldn't love you or those girls more, or be more proud of you.
