Mr. Miracle

This is just not good. Rob Morrow is unwatchable. His facial expressions, the use of his hands, his odd voice? And the random rules, why urgency of needing to help by Christmas Eve or he's permanently banished to... Heaven? I love cheesy Christmas movies. This was not that.

Rob Morrow's direction in playing the character of Mr. Miracle was very annoying, distracting and almost Aspberger's-like in this otherwise wonderful screenplay of Debbie Macomber.

While the storyline was delightful, the directing of Rob Morrow's portrayal of Mr. Miracle was abysmal. His facial expressions and twitches made him seem mentally challenged rather than a Christmas angel "newbie" as portrayed in the book.

While MRS. MIRACLE is very clever, MR. MIRACLE falls short as a result of the lead character's performance. I don't believe it is a reflection on Rob Morrow's talent but the direction he received.

Would love to see a part two next year with another director.

The movie has no heart. For some reason the point seems to be for this angel, Rob Morrow, to get the main character, Addie, to "believe" in herself. Why? I have no idea. There is no sense of urgency or meaning to this fact. Now here I am at the end of the movie still not able to figure out what the heck her problem is! The main character we are suppose to care about Addie, seems lost, self centered and has zero self awareness and resents her Dad for nothing. You want to slap the character. I had nothing but irritation for her. Was not impressed by the actress playing her. It is hard to have any sympathy for her, when she had two loving supportive parents but does not like herself. Go to therapy then but do not make an entire movie around it! Rob Morrow decided to go with a very strange voice and odd take on being a new angel. He is hard to watch. He acts like a backwards person who walks around is a daze. It does not work. It does not even feel very Christmas-y. If you want a nice movie to play in the background while you work around the house, skip this one.

Hmmm...how can I fill 10 lines just to say this movie was horrible?

Well, I was very disappointed. The plot was lousy...the main players lacked talent and were annoying...the lead actress looked like she came out of the '50's with that goofy hairstyle and general appearance.

Mr. Miracle was obnoxious...very obnoxious...and goofy. Enough said about him!

It's a shame this movie is a spin-off of Mrs. Miracle, in which Doris Roberts was fantastic...as always! There's no rhyme or reason why Mr. Miracle...a talentless nobody...was chosen for his part, while a seasoned, TALENTED actress, Doris Roberts, had made her "Mrs. Miracle" movies so particularly wonderful.

This is definitely one movie that I will change the channel when it comes on...for I will not submit myself to this stupidity!

Rob Morrow is a fledgling guardian angel. He has been assigned to help Britt Irvin get her life back on track after the death of her father in this well-meaning but distracted Hallmark Channel Christmas Season movie.

Morrow as the hopelessly clueless angel offers a funny performance with a squeaky voice, but his story of learning how to do his job seems like it should be comedy relief from the budding romance between Miss Irvin and William Vaughan. Yet it takes up about half the movie and it feels like padding. More than that, it seems like auctorial commentary, telling the audience how they are supposed to feel, whether they do or not.

The details of making this movie -- the camera-work, the performances -- are well done. Unfortunately, the script seems more about the mechanical operation of the plot and telling the audience what to feel than letting us discover it within ourselves.
