Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Kirpianuscus Not different by many others Christmas movies, using the same sweet romanticism, with few drops of religion, solitude and ...a horse, it is only nice. and this is the good point. because , in this case, the most important detail could be the status of hot chocolate film. and, few good performances and few references to classic scenes of genre are enough for ignore the not inspired parts and the unrealistic scenes. but the real great thing is the science to use the well known recipe of genre. in simple manner, without many innovations, it is the typical Christmas film - comfortable, nice and romantic.
rightisright Watching this movie again five years later, it's striking how sterile and predictable this year's Hallmark movies are.Emily Hampshire is not the usual fake looking blond used these days as the female lead in Hallmark movies. She's cute, quirky and funny as the lead girl. I've never been much of a Joey Lawrence fan, but he's fine here as a decent guy out in a bad spot. The ending is as stupid and contrived as they come, but you really want to see these two together, so it'll do. It's strange home Hallmark movies these days completely avoid any mention of religion, so it's nice to see both Jewish and Catholics portrayed.
Christmas-Reviewer In this film two "Thirty Something" adults are both sick and tired of friends and family trying to match them up-especially during the holidays. In this film a commitment-phobic Rob Marino (Joey Lawrence) breaks up with his girlfriend before Thanksgiving, he is criticized by his big Italian family about his inability to keep a relationship through the holidays. Wanting to prove them wrong and fulfill his dying grandmother's (Paula Shaw) wish to see him happy in love, Rob goes online and finds Julie (Emily Hampshire), another single New Yorker who's meddling Jewish mom (Marilu Henner), has driven her to seek a temporary boyfriend. Rob and Julie agree to pose as a couple through the holidays to get their families off their backs. But things get complicated when Rob's Catholic clan and Julie's Jewish family get involved. With Christmas coming and Hanukkah around the corner, they double their efforts to keep the charade going, only to discover their fake feelings may be a little too real. The film does move along at a nice pace. My only problem is that Joey Lawrence is miscast. Since this is a Hallmark movie I am a little shocked that Candace Cameron did not snap up this role (Unless she did not want to play a Jewish Girl) Has lots nice moments. Not perfect but very enjoyable.
Zoooma Here is yet another Hallmark Channel Made-for-TV Christmas movie, this time starring the awesome (ha!) Joey Lawrence (whooaaa!) He's actually does have decent acting talent and isn't all that bad. Neither is Emily Hampshire, the lead Canadian here. But the movie itself has a dumb, overused premise and is nothing but predictable. Why I'm watching 90 minutes of Christmas fluff each week I am not sure. You'd think more than 1 out of every 20 would be above average but they're seemingly all nearly the same.5.6 / 10 stars--Zoooma, a Kat Pirate Screener
