I swear that Bailee Madison could light up Northpole with her own smile and happiness! This girl is a pure delight in just about everything she does. I enjoy the "Good Witch" series with her as well. She's the main reason to watch this film, despite excellent performances all around.
Bailee is Clementine, an elf who is concerned about the diminishing happiness around the world that is having a profound affect on the city, Northpole. She decides to do something about it.
Clementine finds a spark of hope in Kevin Hastings, a young boy who also believes that happiness and the Christmas Spirit is still alive despite evidence to the contrary.
Kevin, in a "Pay if Forward"-type scenario, decides to do something about it after his teacher assigns the class a holiday project.
Clementine ends up teaming up with Kevin to reignite the spark of happiness that is missing.
Besides a good cast and a decent story, the other reason this movie works so well is because it's not the typical "Hallmark Christmas Movie Template" that most of their films have. It stands on its own with its uniqueness.
So, if you're look for the non-typical Christmas film that will dazzle, delight, and even touch your heart, this is a good one to go with.
