    Did this movie even HAVE a hair dresser?!

    Hands down the worst hair I have ever seen on screen. If I had been the hair dresser, I'd have fired myself and submitted my name as Alan Smithee for the credits. As a bonus, the bad guy's toupee looked like it came from the clearance aisle at Party City.

    The plot won't even matter to you because all you see is the frizzy fried bangs. Between the brassy highlights and overly permed texture, it's like going back in time to 1987 in middle school when we were just learning how to use perms and curling irons, and still our hair usually turned out better than this! She should have stuck a dead squirrel on her head and called it a day.

    had potential but the hairstylist should have been fired

    This is playing on Netflix right now. It's kind of cute but is just the usual formula. The hair is so bad. I'm glad I'm not the only person that noticed that. It seems like the hair stylist got one color of highlights and used it on the actors that played Gwen Gavin and her mother. The only person that decent hair was the actress that played her friend Becky. The hair of Gwen looks like it was fried when it got its highlights. Even her Grandpa had bad hair when his bangs were combed over his bald spot. Combed into a v pointing down to his nose. Let's not say anything about the toupee the character Dante had. Best way to enjoy the movie, is to close your eyes and not have to look at the hair.

    Oh my god that hair...

    REALLY that hair! So distracting! Acting a bit off, couldn't fully get taken in by the movie. Good story idea, but weak execution. The tv program angle was also badly written. They tried something but it just didn't fit well together in my opinion.

    Nah

    I initially tuned in for Erica Durance, but I couldn't even last 15 minutes. Not worth my time. Lifetime Christmas movies are lackluster compared to Hallmark Christmas movies. They aren't as good.

    Poor costuming and fake snow

    No Canadian wears bright yellow pants in winter! Bizarre costuming. Vernon Falls isn't necessarily in Canada, but this movie was filmed in Ontario.

    Also, totally distracted by the fake blankety snow and Gwen's inexplicable right-hand drive vehicle.
