This movie has all the typical elements of a TV Christmas movie but with a few differences. Although many of the situations and problems are over the top, the acting is spot on and there's real chemistry between all the actors. I really enjoyed how they interacted with each other and made their characters' relationships believable. . Very little sugary sweet dialogue like you get on Hallmark. I normally fast forward through a lot of the Christmas movies produced these days but I never once hit the fast forward button this time.
