Christmas in Homestead

Although the topic has been covered many times, the movie was interesting and done fairly well. You'll find the daughter adorable and root for unlikely love to win out.

BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA.

In 1999 Julia Roberts starred in the motion picture "Notting Hill". The plot elements from that story is stolen and used for this film "Christmas in Homestead". What is nice about this version is that it runs faster than "Notting Hill" and the Christmas theme works well.

"Christmas in Homestead" is about one of the most famous actresses in the world. Her latest film is now shooting in the Christmas- obsessed town of Homestead, Iowa, to shoot a holiday-themed movie. She is thrown for a loop when a romance brews between her and local inn keeper and single dad, Matt. She is not not a "Christmas Lover" or "Hater" she just never took the time to enjoy "Christmas".

What is a nice touch in this film is that they make leads likable. They are not adversary's that fall in love. They are two people that meet each other at the right time. Also it doesn't make Hollywood filmmakers jerks. It makes them caring people that are doing their best to keep everybody happy and not destroying "Homestead".

This is a sweet film. Worth watching

Normally I don't watch Taylor Cole movies. I don't find her engaging so her movies don't keep me focused. But if you like kids then watch it to see Brooklyn Rae Silzer as the mayor's daughter. She is just the cutest and most adorable kid!

The movie has a few storylines besides just on the main actors so this also makes this movie worth watching.

Lots of spirit. Actress comes to town to film movie, disrupts the town and falls for the town's major, who runs the local inn. Lots and lots of Christmas decorations, customs, etc. to make this a nice cheery movie to watch while wrapping presents.

This is a cut above the usual Hallmark fare. The reason is good casting - the actors are excellent and bring dimension to the characters.
