Please don't spend money on this.
Absolutely the worst movie.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Mariah Carey directs and has a side part as an overbearing head PTA mom with mean girl attitude.Lacey Chabert is the lead a designer that must move home from LA to Ohio as her business failed.Skip It!
I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 400 Christmas MOVIES.BEWARE OF BOGUS REVIEWS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. NOW I HAVE NO AGENDA! I AM HONEST! I REVIEW Christmas MOVIES AS A WAY TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT I HAVE SEEN!A single mother moves back to her hometown with her young daughter. Having a hard time adjusting, the daughter seeks help from her music teacher to write a song for the Christmas variety show.Mariah Carey did fine job. The story is cute. For a first time director she knew how to stage a scene and create a mood. Is this a groundbreaking film "NO". Did the film fail? "NO" The film has a few messages here and there but that's fine with me. Its entertaining. I would watch this again "Maybe". I hope this film was a big enough success that Mariah gets another chance to direct another film
I've watched almost all of the Hallmark movies this season. This was definitely one of the best. The acting was good, and the conflicts weren't dragged out. I like most of the Lacey Chabert Hallmark movies. While it was predictable, it was well executed. The musical performance was one of the better Christmas Festivals. Obviously, this was helped by Mariah's directing. Most of the Hallmark movies with this plot requires the female to give up her "dream", but this one just pointed out that the dream could be pursued in a more supportive location.My only criticism was there was a bit of overindulgence of children's "attitudes" in the movie.
My wife loved this movie,me not so much. Within the 1st 30 minutes I knew they would stay in Ohio and not go back to LA. I knew the mother would get romantically involved with the music teacher. I also knew that all things would end up happy and the movie would end. So many Christmas movies especially on Hallmark Channel end up this way. It would have been a better movie if I could not predict the ending almost from the beginning. Also Tom the janitor it was so obvious he was playing Santa Claus. It was just so syrupy sweet and not like real life. I'd like to see some conflict in the movie. Of course there was the PTA mother that was so negative but at the end that worked out as well when her daughter got the best costume.
