Five Star Christmas (2020 TV Movie)
7/10
Lacking Chemistry
28 November 2020
Bethany is my absolute favorite among all the Hallmark actresses and I was really looking forward to this movie. The previews shown funny moments and silliness which I know she's great at, too! Unfortunately, it didn't quite deliver.

So what happened? I'm not quite sure.

To me, there seemed to be no chemistry. None between supposed family members. They actually did seem more like a bunch of strangers sharing a B&B than a family. And I definitely didn't detect any sparks between Bethany and Victor which was the most disappointing. Love them both in other movies but as a couple they just didn't click. They both seemed like they were holding back. Or maybe they were just too mismatched for this movie?

The main story was also somewhat predictable as I knew exactly what the twist was going to be in the first 10 minutes.

What I did like: The dad and Beth had a great romance starting which was cute.

And an Excellent cast! Loved all their different stories and getting to know them.
