I'm 25 minutes in, and can't take it anymore. Wooden acting, stilted dialog. The premise of the movie is the lead gal loves loves everything about Christmas. The guy she's been dating for 3 years breaks up with her because of it. Gal is a budding author, with lots of rejection letters. So, the break up inspires her to write a book about saying NO NO NO to doing too much for Christmas.
This all means she now has to wear a disguise to Christmas shop. But she is spotted and recognized, by another another writer for the local rag who decides to "expose" her as a fraud.
But wait...the 2 have "met" online, and begin talking.
Example of dialog...
"You've come to the right place. Ice skating is always fun, there's baking and decorating Christmas cookies, making ornaments, getting and decorating a tree, sledding."
"Wow, she knows a lot about Christmas."
Seriously? My 7 year old grandson could have come up with that list.
As is usual for these movies, everyone lives in perfectly decorated million dollar homes, every single room professionally decorated Christmas decor. The sister overacts every single scene she is in.
