I don't know why this main actress keeps getting roles. She plays the same boring over the top nagging person who is ungrateful for those who care about her. Her character is soooo unwatchable. The story does not help either as I thought the movie was at least going to be in Italy so there would be nice scenery but no. I'm only 10 minutes in and I don't think I'll be able to switch back after the commercial break. Everyone else in the movie acts naturally. The best friend is fine, the main guy is consistent as he is in all his movies, but this main girl is so annoying and whinny. She is the typical pretty girl with big eyes and no personality.

Was this a comedy? The mystery movies this year have been a bit off with so muchhhhhh talking! Non stop! There seems to be some big story but all the convoluted stories, scenes, and running around, then circling back, just made it hard to follow. Santa didn't feel like Santa. Security guards are more trustworthy than police. This wanna be reporter tries to come out from under her mom's shadow, and there's a bunch of people at the news station and no one else to report the news? The magic of Christmas just wasn't in this movie. The very long make out scene so seemed very un- hallmark like. Also a random name drop of Beyoncé. Why are they name dropping celebs this year? Just stay in the hallmark snow globe not reality. This movie felt like a mess of a ride but I guess this is how all the mystery movies are. There's probably some appeal and certain audience that really like the chase of the clues and try to figure them out before the end but I lose interest half way and really don't care about the ending.
