Holiday Affair

The very first time I saw this movie I didn't really like it that much but it was repeated the following year, and by the time I had seen it again it grew a little on me, and by the third year I liked it. They repeated it here once for five years straight and foolish me watched it but the funny thing is I really liked it.

The performances of Cynthia Gibb and the little boy played by Curis Blanck. Also David James Elliot from Jag as the dreamer who catches Ms Gibb's heart, and for a change the woman chasing the man.

I haven't seen the original movie this is a remake of but I plan to find a copy to watch just to compare.

Overall I gave the movie a 7/10

I love watching David James Elliott ... in anything! Let him read the Yellow Pages, just so I can watch his eyes twinkle. In this charming holiday fluff, he twinkles, grins, sparkles and generally makes you fall in love with him. It's easy to see how the poor lawyer might not have a chance.

i personally loved this movie why ? One Saturday evening ,it was snowing so the movie came on , I'm not a big fan of Christmas movie , but i said to myself i got nothing to do , so i would watch it i fell in love , this movie shows u that to take the biggest risk when you're on

the edge, the kid is kinda annoying but by the end of the movie u would fall in love with him , its a flick chick movie i would recommend u to watch it on a snowy Saturday with your family or loved one while drinking a hot chocolate it would make u fall all over in love just like ""while you were sleeping"" enjoy and prove me wrong

As a holiday film, this movie was worthwhile. It's not huge on plot and the character development needed some work. The one dimensional lawyer friend Paul was particularly cliched and inexpressive. The high point was the Christmas spirit. What's better than a 6-year old with an electric train or two for Christmas, and grandparents for Christmas dinner? While the love story isn't the greatest, it does have some moments of tension and a sweet premise. Good for viewing during the holiday season.

I for one loved this movie. The kid was a little annoying at times but other than that it combined two of my favorite things; Romance and Christmas. Even better that it had David James Elliot, a favorite of mine since getting into JAG. And the end? So many movies have the guy running after the girl. I thought it great that it was the girl chasing the guy. I would hope someday they put it on DVD so I can have it for a long time. And i can't wait to see the original to compare.
