I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

No treats for the writers or creators of this hot mess of a Christmas film! It was bad from the start, yet I couldn't stop watching... Seriously, who buys a dog without talking to the person they live with? Ugh. The sleeping under her desk, bringing the dog to work multiple times after her boss makes her take it home. This woman has many other serious issues.. Horrible movie.

I am a Heartland fan and saw that Cindy Busby (played Ashley Stanton) starred in this movie- so I got the movie on DVD to watch. Time went by and I forgot why I got the movie and I spent the whole movie trying to figure out where I've seen this actress before. She plays a very nice character and it was nice to watch, but she really does much better playing the not so nice character who has the ability to be sweet when she wants something.The movie has some major flaws mostly involving parts of the story. It has some good points- we have lots of real snow. We have a discovery that the secret of a happy marriage is to be able to be yourself and maybe your best self with that other person.I did fall asleep at the end which tells a lot about the excitement of the movie.
