A Dickens of a Holiday! (2021 TV Movie)
10/10
A Dickens of a movie
14 December 2021
Quite honestly I've been put off by many Hallmark movies since they've gone PC and woke in 2020. However, one can stumble across a very, very good one if one looks hard enough. Don't need the PC to keep me warm. "A Dickens..." is a '10' for me: quick repartee, humor, enthusiastic performances from the two main characters, and a, general, a fun Hallmark movie to watch, and one I'll be sure to watch each Christmas.

D'Orsay and. Polaha.do a wonderful job. Their character's chemistry is obvious from the get go. I'd like to see more of them in future HM movies. There a few twists and surprises, but none of the typical 'go away' and 'come back' that Hallmark has scripted in almost all of their editions. I very rarely give a '10' for any movie, let alone Hallmark, but I'd highly recommend this one as a 'must' watch. The only (and I mean only) drawback was Polaha's over-acting as Scrooge which was, I'm sure in the script. But that was a very minor drawback, it all worked out in the end.

Again, watch this one, very entertaining and very fine acting by all. It's a 'repeat' watch on my list, and a Dickens of a movie.
