Country Christmas Album

Horrible acting by all except Hanna Barefoot, the female lead. She's great, as always. Male lead is an awful singer. Surely they could have cast a more talented singer/actor.

Terrible acting and even worse singing, can't sing their way out of a paper bag. Her voice somewhat better than his. Not worth the time. No chemistry and no talent.

Blech...

The female lead is really good as far as the singing and acting, but the male lead was a horrible singer and the rest of the casts' acting was sub-par. It's a good thing I rented this. Couldn't even finish it. Barely made it 15 into it before pressing the stop button.

Wow, some of the reviews on this movie are harsh. Some of you are really just mean people. Greatest movie ever made? Maybe not, but it's not the worst either. Evan Gamble is never going to be mistaken for Johnny Cash, but I really don't think that's his goal either. We liked the movie. Is there anything better than cheesy Christmas movies playing during this time of year. No, no there is not. Put the movie on, turn the oven on, bake some cookies, and enjoy the season. If your goal is take in the next great cinematic master piece then maybe, just maybe head to the nearest theater, grab some popcorn, one of those super duper sized soft drinks, sit back, and enjoy. The rest of us will enjoy the feel good stories that movies like Country Christmas Album provide.

Have a great day everyone and Merry Christmas!

This movie is a refreshing change from the other hundred or so Christmas movies I've watched this year. The story is different and I thought maybe a little rough. The ending is abrupt.

The role of the ex-husband is interesting. I expected him to be a villain, but that didn't happen.

Most of the acting wasn't great, but I didn't think it was horrible. Hannah Barefoot was winsome and has a girl next door kind of beautiful. I didn't see a lot of chemistry between her and Evan Gamble. The fencing between them continued a bit too long and I never really warmed to Derek. Taylor Bedford as Mazzy does a decent job also.

There is a fair amount of singing Christmas songs, but more in bits and pieces than full length songs. They do 12 Days of Christmas with updated lyrics up to the 4th day. I agree with those who weren't impressed with Evan Gamble's voice, especially on O Holy Night. Hannah Barefoot is enjoyable to listen to.

Was it just me, or maybe my TV, or did the live performance of Winter Wonderland (an original, not the classic) sound washed out like in a cavern?

After watching this again almost a year later, I raised my estimation of it by a star.
