Christmas in the Rockies

Is the guy playing her father really old enough to be her father? And is Trish Stratus supposed to be the same age as him, and therefore 20ish years older than her?

Are you kidding? I'm not even going to bother reviewing the story - a romcom's pretty much a romcom, so don't expect art. But there's nothing about this that even tries. Women do lumberjack competitions, but they train as hard as the men and are totally badass. We're supposed to buy that this little ball of fluff is going to grab an axe and just step in? Puh-leeze.

But the part that's really offensive is that this was shot in Ontario, on the other side of the country from the Rockies. Like, 3500 km away from the mountains that are Right Behind Them all through this movie. That's cynical and fraudulent. You wanna make a movie about (something) in the Rockies? The least you can do is buy a bus ticket and go there.

A Christmas In The Rockies.....Yes corny, yes cheesy, bad acting, poor casting. Yes all lumberjacks daughter's are lumberjacks too. It's in their blood and their hair, makeup, and clothes always look perfect even while working out. Yes her father was 1 year old when she was born....but I don't really expect anything else from these movies. They are soooooooo far from reality that it makes me laugh. Plus extremely predictable. The only interesting character in the movie was the man who played Grandpa Sam. Please Santa buy some acting lessons for Mike Shara. Anyway Merry Christmas everyone. God bless.

I know that this is a romance movie and it's not supposed to be accurate but a girl that was raised in the Rockies and any man that has gone to school should know that bears hibernate in the winter especially by Christmas. I have never seen a man (Jack) compete against a woman (Jill) in any lumberjack competition and I have seen a lot as my brother competed as a lumberjack. Lumberjack competitions require a lot of strength and speed in which men and women are very unequal. A person who hasn't trained in while would be so stiff after the first day and would need a couple of days to recuperate as she seemed to be after the first training session. Any one that has done any manual work in a while know that your hands would be so blistered, after swinging an axe, which would stop the training longer than the sore muscles. Finally...why would a highly competitive good looking woman settle for a plain looking aging dude like Stephen Huszar?

Another movie with a contest to save the family _______ (logging company). Three weeks to train for a physical activity her competitors have been training for their whole lives and outweigh her 2-1 or more. So like many rom/coms don't even try to reconcile anything close to realism. But this one stretches way past even those. The story is lame with no real highs or lows or surprises. The "tag line" for the movie promo doesn't make sense and also gives away what might have been the only surprise way too close to the end. The climax plays out like all these movies do, just different details. The dialogue isn't much.

Mike Shara is too young to be Katie's dad and his acting is bad.

Kimberly-Sue Murray and Stephen Huszar are OK together, but Katie and Harrison cozy up pretty darn fast.
