If you are really feeling down in the dumps, then this is
the one for you. Every character in this movie has an opportunity to whine, suffer, complain, or fly off the handle.
You have never heard so much negativity in a Hallmark Holiday movie before.
Sometimes you wonder why some of these people just don't slap each other into sensibility. Remember Cher in "Moonstruck" ? "Snap out of it !" The actors do their best here but the script is sometimes just too amateurish to overcome. We love Barbara Nivens and she is able to rise above the material but she is just not in here enough. And Jason Fernandes as Miguel is quite good.
Also, the production values are sometimes beyond belief.
For example, during the first hour, there is a shot of a house with what's supposed to be snow on the roof, but it looks like a bunch of second graders slopped it all together.
Nevertheless, if you would like some company to suffer with this Holiday season, this has plenty to offer.
