Christmas Cupid

Alright, well I just sat through this movie, despite it was a movie that was amazingly sassy.

Let's start off with the title, "Christmas Cupid"? I think the movie was somewhat given a wrong title, sure there was a love theme to the story, but there was no Cupid around. And I sure hope they hadn't intended the dead movie star to be Cupid, if so, that would just be morbidly sick.

The story told in "Christmas Cupid" is fairly easy to follow and straight forward, being a whole re-invention of the classic "Christmas Carol" story. Just spiced up to appeal to the modern and hip audience of the 21st century. In itself it was actually not a bad interpretation of the classic story, and it did kind of grow on you, despite there were times where you just wanted the movie to end.

As for the acting in the movie, well I think the people did a good enough job. And they had some fairly decent names on the list, like Chad Michael Murray, Ashley Benson, Christina Milian, and more.

I think there is something to the movie that appeals to everyone, but as a whole picture, I think the movie is perhaps more suited for a female audience, than it is for a male audience.

The movie was adequate, but I hardly think it will turn out to be a Christmas classic movie, that you will get to experience year after year.

Teens who want a relatable version of A Christmas Carol will flock to Christmas Cupid, starring the popular teen star from Pretty Little Liars, Ashley Benson. Ashley is the Jacob Marley to Christina Milian's Scrooge, and she visits her coworker to impart some life lessons before it's too late. As you can tell from the title, the main focus is love and finding Christina's happiness with another person, rather than just enjoying the Christmas spirit. But this is a teen movie - do you really expect it not to focus on boys, boys, boys?

Parts of it were cute, but it's really just geared to teenage girls. Diehard fans of the Dickens story will probably be appalled. Just as classic lovers should stay away from All American Christmas Carol, they should probably stay away from Christmas Cupid. But if you just like pretty girls in pretty dresses, giggling over which boy to kiss under the mistletoe, check out this festive comedy. You'll see some familiar faces, like Jackée, Burgess Jenkins, and Ashley Johnson.

Am I really watching a movie with Christina Milian and Chad Micheal Murray? Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. This movie has it all: hot men and Christmas. Chad Michael Murray smolders as the doctor love interest. I heard he really worked with a real doctor and emergency room for a week to get into character. This film is A Christmas Carol meets Clueless. This movie is charming and predictable. Ashley Benson is the comic relief and boy does she deliver! Christmas Cupid is a Christmas delight wrapped up in a present!

Badly over acted movie full of unpleasant, unrealistic characters. There are a couple of people here who like it which means I guess it appeals to someone. The movie lacks depth, sincerity and character development. It was painful to watch and how I ever endured it to the end, I will never know. If you're looking for a movie with some intelligence and warmth with a bit of that Christmasy feel to it, you won't find it here. The movie is emotionless and shallow. Don't waste your time if you have a reasonable IQ.

OK guys, let's face it. It's December, snow is falling and although we're stressed out, we want to relax and get into a Christmas mood. So we lean back and switch on "Christmas Cupid" in hope for a bit silly, but watchable movie.

I'm sorry I have to stop you right here. This movie is bad from the beginning to the end. The acting is dreadful, not in one million years do I buy the businesswoman on "the fast track". The storyline is somewhat incoherent, yet unforgivably predictable. Yes, we have all watched romantic comedies with a predictable ending, but this one has got to be one of the worst. Even calling it a "comedy" does it too much honour. The take on Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" was nicely thought, but horribly executed. Not to mention, that there was no cupid in the movie whatsoever.

This is not a movie I'd recommend for you to watch during Christmas time (or anytime, actually). Better go with some old classics, that'll really get you ready for the holidays!
