A Firehouse Christmas

The basic virtue is the recipe. Careful respected, fine used. A girl, her parents, the grandpa like a sort of Scrooge and a mother more interested by public image, a father reminding Peter Pan and the brave, courageous and charming girlfriend of the father, off course she is fireworker. But, against naivety and cliches, the films well works. A mix of romance and growing up, it is just- just nice.

What a horrible Christmas movie. In the end all the characters realized they've been massive arseholes. But the viewers had to suffer through all their awfulness for two hours to get there. This is a four alarm alert - stay away, stay far away from this movie. Minus a further half star for gratuitous Neil Lane and Kay Jewelers product placement. HORRIBLE!

Awful...............................terrible

The worst

Review Date 6/15/2019

I Have Reviewed OVER 500 "Christmas Films and Specials". Please BEWARE Of films and specials with just one review! For instance When "It's a POSITIVE" chances are that the reviewer was involved with the production. "If its Negative" then they may have a grudge against the film for whatever reason. I am fare about these films.

A woman's relationship with a former Olympian is tested during the holiday season when her beau's ex attempts to feign a rekindled romance with him in order to fuel the sales of her relationship-advice book.

It was hard for me to watch this film because I kept thinking Marcus Rosner looks like one of Donald Trumps sons or Adam Scott. The film however suffers because the writing is very inconsistent. Characters are not consistent and at times you are left scratching your head.

I watched this movie with my teen daughter. We watch about a dozen Christmas movies every year, and this one was bad enough to finally write a review. The premise was good so we kept watching with hope that it would get better. It didn't.

There were a number of plot gaps, script or Director shortcuts, and poor production in my opinion. This movie had such potential, but neither the Canadian name A Christmas Hero or international name Firehouse Christmas really made sense to the story.

The movie was predictable and had a decent cast, but the Director, writers and production crew had the movie bouncing all over the place and it almost seemed like the actors were having a hard time following the story-line themselves. Had they not cut so many corners in the script, this movie could have easily been a 7.5. Instead its barely a 5, and definitely a never watch again.
