Our Little Secret

Our Little Secret movie Non-violent amusing comedy that is fun to watch as all of the characters try so hard not to hurt each other's feelings that it actually fails and backfires in humorous and embarrassing ways and sometimes actually succeeds. If you want to escape for a couple of hours this worked for me.

Mixes business with friendship and family sorting out how to deal with personal history that suddenly without warning resurfaces many years later at the most inconvenient time. Or was it? Is this torture, Karma, or true love? You'll have to watch it to find out.

Best choice so far this year.

Formulas work. It's why content creation companies, like Netflix, churn out familiar movies starring people on a contract. Sometimes though, the formula breaks down. The script trying too hard for laughs, or an archetypical character, or everyone looking like the movie is an ad for plastic surgery and Botox.

Here we have an awkward situation which just doesn't feel awkward. Add in the evil mother-in-law and cute pets. Shake, don't stir, and you have a mess of a movie which never fits well. Like hammering a jigsaw piece into place.

Not gonna lie, I was hoping the mother in law would turn out to be a vampire. Ageless and all that. But everything about this movie falls flat. I get it, it's hard to show emotion when your face doesn't move.

So I expected another cheesy, poorly acted Hallmark-type movie (like her terrible cheesy Netflix Christmas skiing film where she loses her memory), but Our Little Secret was a surprisingly solid romantic comedy. The dysfunctional family subplot reminded me of The Family Stone and Happiest Season, adding a bit of heart and charm and of course gotta love Kristin Chwnoweth. It's also great to see Lindsay Lohan back in proper movies, and seeing again her comedic acting and charm that originally made her a star. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a cozy, feel-good Christmas movie. Worth watching.

I actually felt like watching the proposal. Ideas were good, there was fun and honestly for the first time in a while i actually felt chemistry between linday and her co-star. I'm very surprised in a very good way and i did enjoy watching it from start to end . Glad to see a real return for Lindsay as the previous movies for holidays werent that good. ( also a good return to well written movies with a storyline and not just " movie stars ") Maybe its time for lindsay to move from christmas movies and return to more commercial ones.

Definitively must watch! Enjoy!

Merry christmas everyone !!!!!!!!!

Its like a lot of movies, somethign to watch vs nothing, is what I categorize it Its not a movie to pick to intentionally watch much less pay to see And the aful filter on their skin kept making me think it as an AI generated movie or one where cartoons characters are supposed to look real. I could not even concentrate on the movie because of how eerie their complexions looked vs natural.

In short if you just want to watch an okay movie or occupy time then sure watch this. But its not something I would pick if my time is really important. Id personally want to watch a movie thats at least a 7 and this is not one.
