I liked this spin on A Christmas Carol.

Casting was pretty good. Erin runs a bit hot and cold with me but she suited this role. And Tyler always brings the fun, did think he's a bit underused here but maybe that's cos I just wanted to see him more. The romance was believable which is not something I usually relate to Hallmark movies. The rest of cast were perfectly fine. It's attempt at comedy didn't always hit but I did laugh occasionally.

The Australian accent was pretty cringe but worse was the use of the Aussie colloquialisms. I've lived in Australia they don't talk like that.

A watchable light movie to get one into the Christmas spirit even though it's only mid November.

This Plot! Hallmark you've done this before too too many times and I know Americans are obsessed with our royals but come on it's just pathetic at this point. Thankfully in real life most of our royals aren't marrying Americans (sorry Meghan). We don't want you here.

Fiona's accent is terrible but then again what accent should she have, why try to be English when you are in a fake country that is not in the U. K. it makes no sense. Apparently according to Americans all royals speak in RP. Even though most Americans won't even know what RP is.

Also the crowns look horribly fake

Warren is woefully misused in this.

All in all I'd rather have watched paint dry than watched this.

Throw in some chaos, a bit of silliness and a load of romance and you get this fun movie. Nikki and Warren are so comfortable with each other I enjoyed their last movie together as well. Their pairing is natural and easy. The support cast is solid and the football story appropriate for the season.

Definitely worth a watch.
