Tune in to see knockoff Angela Kinsey and Chef Joey Fatone calling food allergies nonsense. The supply of horrible Christmas movies seems to be never-ending and in that category, this movie did not disappoint. This movie came filled with the average amount of cringe (at times so bad, I'd have to look away) but also some hilarious moments. Some of my favorites include, the flashback scene where Kelsey is supposed to look about 16 but somehow they dressed her and made her up to look more like 36. -- Connor supposedly being strong-armed by two guys at the wedding-- this movie doubling down on its ridiculousness by having Connor propose after knowing Kelsey for all of 2(ish) weeks and them just using someone elses wedding as their own. If you love bad movies, and Christmas ones especially-- check it out!

I've seen my share of Hallmark/Netflix Christmas movies this month (it's been one of those months) and I have to say, within the genre of Christmas cheese, is this film really that bad? Let's try to be objective: Negatives:

• Very low budget. Everything looks very cheap, like they they used a friend's house to film it. The "dress shop" and "bakery" were all clearly just rooms in someone's house. Everyone looked like they were wearing their own clothes (why was Aunt Olivia always wearing a fascinator? Was she always just about to go to a wedding). That lobster looked fake. The lead actress's hair is the most expensive looking thing here. That's some good hair styling.
• Odd casting - where did they find these actors? The two leads were okay but everyone else looked unsure as to why they were there...maybe they owed the director a favour? The girl who was cast as "young Kelsey" had blue eyes when Kelsey clearly had brown eyes. Did this escape the casting director's notice? Who am I kidding, there was no casting director.
• Terrible acting - everyone from the coffee shop barista to the baker... everyone decided that OVERACTING was the way to go. The direction and editing was so awkward...someone yell cut already!

The movie is still playing but it is just so boring. The acting is, at moments, cringeworthy (the baker for example). Not much Christmas about the story either (apart from a wedding set around this time of year). Bad wedding planner, bad PI, bad (elaboration of a) Christmas story. And seriously, the things after the 'I love you' really come out of the blue! It makes no sense whatsoever, it's ridiculous even, because there is no spark to be seen between the actors. (End of movie.)
