Room for two please?
I'd say that for me the leads aren't right for each other, but it turns out that they're married in real life? She's very lucky, he has a great butt!
It's a good story, with elements of Dirty Dancing as well as many Christmas films that have gone before.
It's cute because it has kids dressed as reindeer in it and I do like the dancing part too.
It's what you should expect from a made for TV Crimbo film.

Not Disappointed
I was a fan of the TV show big time rush so I was looking forward to this movie. I was not disappointed.
I think four factors influence the quality of the Halmark Christmas movie.
Was the romance believable? I thought it was here without any huge does of melodrama.
Did it relate to Christmas? I thought the movie was very well done visually and I thought it had some nice family and tradition themes as well. The kid and kids were cute too, so that has to count for something. (the kid also was not really the matchmaker which I enjoyed because I find that plot creepy generally) What about the minor characters and subplots? Not many subplots here, but I thought the bit parts were well played and added to the movie.
Four, was it funny? Not so much. It was sweet in parts but not really funny.
So all told I felt it was a better than average Hallmark Christmas movie.

Below average...
"Enchanted Christmas" is a Romance movie in which we watch a widow returning to her hometown with her daughter in order to renovate a lodge. There she will have to face her past and reconsider some of her choices.
I have to admit that I did not have high expectations from this movie and I just watched it to spend my time and nothing more. The direction which was made by Terry Cunningham was average but he tried to create the Christmas feeling that we all want to see during these days. Despite that, it was obvious that "Enchanted Christmas" had a low budget but the result was not the best. The interpretations of Alexa PenaVega who played as Laura Trudeau, Carlos PenaVega who played as Ricardo Archuleta and Rene Rivera who played as Manuel Montoya were good for this movie but they could not save it. Lastly, I have to say that "Enchanted Christmas" is an average Christmas movie and I do not recommend it to anyone because I believe you can find better Christmas movies to watch.

The Penavegas!!
I watched because Alexa and Carlos Penavega were the starring actors.
A real life couple that previously competed on Dancing with the Stars, so you know they have the dancing chops!
Cute Christmas film, a solid six on the scale.

Slow start
Not to adventurous, the first 45 min are so slow.
