Melt My Heart This Christmas

For starters the soundtrack is overpowering at times.

The flow seems uneven. The humor is based on missteps and misunderstandings.

Stephen Huszar's Jack is unnaturally awkward. The relationship with Laura Vandervort's Holly is stiff. Any romance between them is barely justified by the story.

I thought Vandervoort does a nice job of the timid assistant in a confusing situation.

Much of the movie is about Holly and Bianca. Holly is supposed to be the student, but she is trying to build up Bianca.

Like so many movies of this type, there is a secret held by one of the leads. The secret has the potential to create big problems for Holly.

I liked the way the writers turned things around for all involved. I didn't see it coming.

The character Holly's name for her company was Verre. Each time I heard it I thought it should have been called Le Verre in keeping with the French name for glass. The one word Verre felt flat each time it was said. Calling it Le Verre would have been a more classier name in my opinion. The movie was enjoyable for a Sunday evening.

This movie is a subtle (to some and obvious to others) and lame attempt to parody to The Devil wears Prada. Some characters are obviously borrowed from the movie along with some of their looks and characteristics such as Miranda, Nigel, Andrea. Cute movie but the similarities are too distracting not to notice.

I love watching holiday movies but the makeup on the cast was a bit distracting to me. Bianca had makeup on her hair, two of the other women looked as if makeup was plastered on, and Holly's makeup was a shade or so off from her neck. Cute movie nonetheless. I wasn't too familiar with the cast but they did a good job.
