Uninspiring

This movie is an example of writers taking the checklist of all the Christmas movie themes and tropes and marking them off one by one. Emma wants a promotion which is dangled in front of her. There is a contest, in this case between villages for decorating. There is Emma's romantic opposite, Alex, who has both the demanding father and a daughter who connects with Emma. Emma and Alex have a rough first meeting. Far too quickly those around them start telling Emma and Alex separately that the other looks at them in a special way. There is a gag where the two drink hot chocolate that leaves the whipped cream on their faces. Emma leaves a boyfriend back in New York who for once doesn't dump her at the start. The fact that her home is across the ocean is an obstacle to the new potential romance. There is a ball. Both the contest and the ball require Emma and Alex to work together. Emma's boyfriend shows up unexpectedly creating a problem even beyond the developing romance with Alex.To be fair, there are a few old standards missing. No snowball fight. Or snowman contest. The leads don't bake cookies together.Sometimes I say the thing that's true about this movie. There are no great highs or lows or surprises. The ending is quite predictable.The acting isn't exactly bad, but it's not good, especially a couple of characters. Jill Winternitz isn't bad but has little spark and isn't totally natural at times. She has only a little quiet chemistry with Dominic Watters. The character of the laird is inconsistent.This movie is probably ok for either diehards who love the same old stuff, or for those who are relatively new to the genre. I am suspicious of all the 1 and 2 star reviews, 8 out of 18 total. At least those who criticized the cultural accuracy said something beside that it was awful, and some of those criticisms might have some merit. While I think the movie was derivative and not well acted, I think horrible or awful is a little too far.

Not as Bad as Some Reviewers Say

I watched the whole movie, and found it partly good and partly bad. Of the acting, only one actor was truly terrible. A couple were not great, but passable, and most were fully believable. The two leads were pretty good, he better than she. The story, as with most others like this, was predictable. But so what!The film had a certain charm, and if you could overlook the over-obvious reactions of the laird to just about everything, the story was very affirming. A feel good movie.I have a few quibbles with some of the direction and decisions, like the male lead's hair was always a mess. The young girl (the laird's granddaughter) was sweet and a good actor to boot. Anyway, overall, it was definitely better than some reviewers thought.

Ending didn't feel like a castle

This could have been a Christmas classic but it was disappointing because I was expecting Emma to decorate the castle so wonderfully and at the end I was waiting for her to make a grand entrance in the magnificent castle ballroom all decked out with her Christmas decorations her coming down a grand staircase in that red gown. Instead the end was in some tacky set with hardly any decorations and it looked like a cheap hall not a castle. Very anticlimactic ending ruined the whole point of the movie which was her decorating the inside of the castle. Where are the spectacular decorations that she was going to do inside the castle? The ending could have been magical if the atmosphere was right because it was a good story with good actors.
