Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Paul Magne Haakonsen This turned out to be one of the more enjoyable Christmas movies that I got around to watching during the Christmas season of 2017.Why?Well, because of the storyline that had elements of a classic Christmas tale laced up with some lighthearted comedy and romance. But also because they had some very nicely talented actors and actresses on the cast list. And the chemistry between Lacey Chabert and Paul Greene was so good.Sure, like all Christmas movies, then "A Wish For Christmas" was blessed with an overly predictable and generic storyline and plot. But hey, don't they all? I suppose that is part of the Christmas movie charm for some reason.While this does not have the making of a Christmas classic, it is definitely a Christmas movie worthy of being watched at least once for the holidays with your loved ones.

krstonoshic-94757 Christmas? What is the Christmas message here? It's OK to be humiliated and then humiliated again, and plus - grateful to be humiliated.This movie is disgrace for female first and then for men as well. I cant believe someone approved this to be on TV (or anywhere).Would anyone want to show this to their family?

Jack Vasen Lacey Chabert plays a total doormat who is turned into an assertive, confident closer via a Christmas wish. Question is, after getting the wish granted, should she still have some of that overly-apologetic wimpy character. My opinion is that it should be a lot less than the way it is played. Chabert goes back and forth from assertive to apologizing. Constantly. I guess the writers and/or director thinks otherwise, but to me it came off badly. Chabert didn't seem convincing in either one.Green also flip flopped. In the beginning he was over-demanding, shouting negative orders at the one guy who seemed to be his assistant. When he is with Sara on the road, he is ready to give up and only she salvages the car rental and the appointment. At times he seems to let her lead him around and at other times he seems angry that she is at least taking a last shot when there is nothing left to lose. He frequently has uncertainty in his eyes which is not consistent with the CEO of this company. After she seems to blow the pitch, he gets angry and bossy again. Then he shows up at work on Christmas as a nice guy again.I read reviews that complain the ending is too abrupt. While I agree that it wasn't totally comfortable, I also disagree thinking that there was no real mystery about what took place off screen. Neither scene, whether the client or the dad, would have been easy to film, or entertaining.I also read a review that said Sara returned to being wimpy. (BTW, that review has spoilers and is not marked as such.) But, her apologies to her boss after the failed pitch are no different than several apologies that took place earlier and it was certainly no wimp that climbed into the limo with the client. And she did not wimp out with her boss in the final scene.The film was lacking in romantic moments. It doesn't totally make sense that they are kissing at the end. And I don't remember a lot of humor. But there was a heartwarming sense of pride each time Sara took charge, and in the scene with the little girl, and with Peter's family. I was thinking we should call Sara "the fixer".I had trouble rating this movie. The first time I watched it, I left a rating of 9. After the second time, I downgraded it mostly because of the lack of romance.

Tina TinaS Thank you to the other reviewers who wrote about the dissatisfying ending. I did the same thing, re-watching the ending to see if I somehow missed the conversations between the male lead (Peter) and his father, and the female lead (Sara) and the jerky client. How the heck did everything get wrapped up so neatly? And I agree that it certainly appeared that Peter would not have run after Sara at the end if she hadn't gotten the contract signed, since he was totally cold to her when she arrived. Wow. True love.And way too much wasted filler... for example, wouldn't it have been cool if the mother and daughter who Sara helped at the car rental agency turned out to be the client's family, which is why he had a change of heart??? As it was, it seemed like just a silly waste of time that could otherwise have been used to explain the "happy ending."
