A Christmas Cruise

Truly bad film. Both the lead characters were unlikeable and didn't seem to like each other either. Moany, know it all male meets moany uncooperative woman and they live unhappily ever after. Awful script but the actors were convincingly unlikeable so I guess they were good?!

Vivica Fox plays journalist and aspiring novelist Pam Stevenson.

Pam is invited by her best friend on festive themed Christmas cruise. Pam plans to get an article out of it but things do not start well as she has to sleep in a rollaway bed as there are not twin beds in their cabin.

Pam dispenses life advice to other cruise guests such as a young engaged couple and finds romance herself with the cruise director.

This is another run of the mill Christmas themed romance movie that is made for television. This one looks a bit more expensive, in short it was not made in Canada. They even use the Queen Mary that is docked in LA for exterior shots.

Laughably, Fox who is in her 50s plays a child of the 90s, rather unconvincingly.

The movie is cute but just ok overall. I found the acting very scripted instead of fluid. Lack of true emotion. As a adult film it felt very juvenile.

I found myself checking my phone. The charecters had no chemistry and you could tell they weren't reallycon a ship. Love Boat was actually better.

Neither of the leads is appealing and their chemistry is weak. I didn't care what happened between them. The guy with the foot problems was not funny but just annoying.

The boat, oh sorry ship, is wimpy. Cruise directors have no time for flirting and besides that they all have real entertainment talents. You'd never catch him singing on a mic with a voice like St. John's.

The story doesn't really go anywhere except to the predictable ending. And besides that it made no sense.
