3 years ago, I would've said Hallmark manufactures nothing but over emotional, superficial schmaltz, but the last 3 years have greatly changed that.
'Time for HIM to come home' has a great atemporal plot device mixed with an overarching Christmas mystery and underlying plot of holiday sadness. The script balances all plot lines nicely while adding a b plot of following the separated lovers.
This is a GREAT cast. Steve Bacic was THE 90s hot guy for any sci fi genre, so pulling him for the b plot was awesome. Plus, anytime a celeb plays a celeb always adds credible star power i.e. Country singer Tenille.
The only rough spot came from the seeming age discrepancy. Although the same age, Holland, the female lead looks early-mid twenties while Tyler Hynes looks like a male in his mid to late 30s. I couldn't believe they were classmates, let alone buy him as an undergrad in flashbacks.
This was a great, well-written film that didn't trauma milk and had great cast chemistry.
