Candy Coated Christmas

Gag-worthy in all respects. Pie-faced Ree Drummond, the phony "pioneer woman" from Food Network makes her "acting" debut in this wretched concoction that must be aimed at moribund residents in nursing homes who can't get out of the TV room. They don't deserve it.

This Was an Excellent Usual Christmas Story and that's Okay!

Essentially the plot is a spoiled rich girl loses it all and goes to a small town to make ends meet again and it's more than meets the eye as she interacts with the town and it's people.

Yes it's cliche, but their are some unique elements.

The main actress is good as is the main actor. They are fine. They actually gave the main actress some PHYSICAL comedy bits and one liners and that was pretty fun and unique. She was actually great at line delivery and the physical bits.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this. 10 out of 10 from me. It's a Christmas movie with likeable beautiful people as ALL MOVIES should be!

I love all cheesy, predictable Christmas movies. But this one is awful. The leading lady is such a spoiled brat but then magically had a personality transplant. Ree Drummond also cannot act. I love her cooking shows but her "acting" (if you can call it that) is so wooden and unreal. I don't recommend, i was quite painful to watch 😕

I admitt , I liked it. Sure, a lot of cliches, not the best acting, the dusty recipe of Hallmark romance but few details are real nice and, for me, are the significant ones.

I liked the performance of ree Drummond as Bee, a sort of Santa in other films or a good witch. I liked the pink overcoat . Not last, I liked the fine job of Lee Garlington and Dia Frampton and John McCook.

The chemistry between Noah and Molly remains an enigma for me. Being only a man, not a surprise. The little town celebrating Christmas is a good point and the story of Christmas, each year in Hawaiii sounds reasonable. But the favorit aspect was the room of mother and the blanckets and the toys on shelf and the lights chain .

Sure, many mistakes, sins and errors. But, the last confession who must write for be more than indulgent with this film is simple and too personal : I love mint.

Though the story seemed good on paper, the bad acting and the awkward execution were two elements for disaster. They were just too obvious to ignore. Plus, everyone in that town were too mean to the main girl who was ignorant and spoiled, yes, but not that bad of a character to be treated that way.
