The Christmas Secret

For a mostly unknown cast, this movie was pretty good.

The only actor I recognized was Michael Hogan, from the remake of Battlestar Galatica.

A woman with two kids is going through some financial hard times, losing her job after being a good Samaritan, facing an upcoming eviction, and a rotten ex-husband looking to take her kids away.

What follows partially through a case of mistaken identity is a magical story of finding lost family, finding what your heart desires and helping keep the Christmas magic alive.

Worth the view. Charming & Delightful!

In my opinion the movie starts out slow, and honestly did not grab my attention. I even looked for something else on TV to watch, but nothing else interested me either. As I continued to watch I got engrossed in the story line, and was wonderfully surprised how it all comes together in the end!! Very uniquely, and beautifully written!! I will watch this whenever I see it on TV in the future for sure!! It's about a single mother of two kids. She loses her job after being late because she saw a lady collapse and proceeded to give her CPR. Then she finds a new job only an hour after losing her first one. While she is providing CPR to the lady, her necklace falls off, and lands inside the coat of the lady she is giving CPR to. Throughout the movie a guy keeps showing up (in a good way). The necklace, the lady who hired her right after losing her job, the lady she gave CPR to, and the mysterious guy...you just have to watch this movie to find out the incredible story of how they all tie together in a magical way!!

Worth watching even in 2022. This movie is one of the best Christmas movies I have watched in a long time. Hallmark did a great job of casting all the right actors. They all had great chemistry from the leads to the supporting actors. The story was real and very relatable to many of us. Hallmark doesn't always hit the mark with their movies most of the time they are predictable and the same story over and over. This one was not that yes I'm sure many would say they knew how it would end but it still made me tear up to see it all come together at the end. For me it's a feel good must watch even years after it was filmed.

This is a tearjerker and the best ending I've seen in long time. The actress playing the female lead here is so good and you can't help but to root for her. I highly recommend watching this one. The kids were adorable. The male lead is an actor I'm not all that familiar with and he was fine and played a good guy, I just didn't get any warmth from the character.

It has all the virtues of a Hallmark films. but, in happy way, not the sins. the first motif is the cast. giving the right performance. it is predictable. but well crafted. it gives a generous message. using the same recipe and the same rules of a story about emotions, questions, vulnerability and revelation. in interesting way. a story about miracle. you know it. and that is the secret ingredient of the charme of this film.
