A Joyous Christmas is a 2017 Hallmark movie. This is a calm, snuggle under a blanket with a hot chocolate kind of a movie. It provides a good break from the endless romcom of crappy Christmas movies as the romance string of this plot is minor- not a motivator for the female lead. It’s predictable,Continue reading “A Joyous Christmas”

Charming Christmas
Charming Christmas is a 2015 hallmark movie that can be found on Prime. This is indeed a charming movie but Prime’s synopsis is misleading. Nick Clause is very engaging and carries the movie right up until the final awkward moment. There’s a sprinkling of magic, a scoop of cringe and a limited number of childContinue reading “Charming Christmas”
Miss Christmas
This is a 2017 Hallmark movie to add to your watchlist for sure. It’s lovely. There is no cringe or bad acting or scary romances and even the kid actor is great! I was instantly taken in by the female lead who has a Yorkie and prioritised Christmas over dating – I can relate. TheContinue reading “Miss Christmas”
A Christmas Prince
A Christmas Prince is a 2017 Netflix original movie and somewhat of a cult classic. I have long wondered what all the fuss is about and so, on a night when Jen was out at her staff Christmas dinner, I put it on. (Note: Jen refuses to watch it) The start is promising with aContinue reading “A Christmas Prince”
Christmas in Evergreen: Letters to Santa
This is a significant upgrade of the first movie of the series. It’s still missing a little something but it’s much better! Again, there’s no bah humbug bad guy, which is refreshing and what sets these movies apart is that the protagonist isn’t the one who needs to develop their Christmas spirit but again, isContinue reading “Christmas in Evergreen: Letters to Santa”
Christmas in Evergreen
Christmas in Evergreen is a 2017 Hallmark movie also available ion Channel 5 on the U.K. This movie has everything – more sparkles and jiggle bells than you could shake a stick at. However it’s flat. Like a pancake. Like a pancake with no syrup or cinnamon.It’s hard to say what makes this one aContinue reading “Christmas in Evergreen”
Smart Christmas
2018 Bulgarian, subtitled movie n Netflix. Ok, so I know time moves differently in the North Pole in order for the magic of Christmas to actually work, but if the elves are still collecting letters and checking the naughty and nice list on xmas Eve night, I have very serious concerns. I’m just saying, that’sContinue reading “Smart Christmas”
Just Another Christmas
Just Another Christmas is set in Brazil, is dubbed in English and on Netflix. The voiceover artist for the main character spends the first half an hour shouting. Initially, there’s not a lot of finesse in this performance but stick with it, it’s worth it in the end. Netflix describes this as a time-loop movie,Continue reading “Just Another Christmas”
His And Her Christmas
His and Her Christmas is a 2005 Christmas monstrosity. This movie is a slog. At 30 minutes in, you finally get the first glimpse of Christmas but this disappears quickly. The male lead’s best friend carries the show and all of the first 40 minutes could have been summed up in 5minutes. The steady camContinue reading “His And Her Christmas”
Christmas Under Wraps
Upon second watching of Christmas Under Wraps, we can summarise that this falls comfortably within the category of crappy Christmas movie. We have become a little immune to the cringes but this has very few and some touching moments. Once again, Candace Cameron Bure is the female lead and we are starting to see whyContinue reading “Christmas Under Wraps”
