Mistletoe in Montana

Apparently Christmas takes place in the summer in this movie. The grass is green and there is zero snow. Beautiful scenery, but completely filmed out of season. There was no chemistry between the two main characters. I can picture a scenario where they were best friends from college that dated twice and decide being friends was better. I liked all the characters, however, especially Merry's dad and the girl. I loved the photography arch and the message of being present in your kids life and ditching the devices. I also loved that they cast a Native American two actors and made them multi dimensional instead of a sterotype. It was an okay movie, but a little dull.

Have enjoyed Melissa in other Hallmark movies and loved Duane in NCIS, but they had absolutely no chemistry in this. It was excruciating and couldn't watch it til the end. And where was the snow??!!

No chemistry in this one. Just a whole bunch of silly. Really poor casting of the daughter. Just not likeable. 3 stars for MJH because even when she is in a flop of a movie. I still like her.

I usually don't watch Christmas movies on Lifetime or Hallmark Channel unless my friend is playing an extra on them. But I saw Duane Henry (killed off of NCIS😡) and Jamey Sheridan was in it so decided to watch.

It's not a bad movie and the acting isn't bad either. It's the typical from-Christmas movie so expect cheesy storylines. It's not bad in my opinion. Would I watch it again? Probably not.

Yes, there are flaws, but when I need a distraction I don't focus on the negative. Duane Henry did well in this role and I look forward to more of his movies.

As far as the mistakes, I don't take them seriously and have to laugh when the clothing, makeup, and hair don't reflect what would happen in real life. Ditto for the indoor and outdoor decorations. Of course, if they did reflect real life, there would be complaints.

The snow, or lack thereof, is a glaring error and I am not certain why the decison was made to film a Montana winter without snow.

If you need perfection in your movies, this is not for you, but if you like Duane Henry or you want to just escape the pressures of the season, this is a good choice.
