WARNING: I haven't watched the full movie yet!

I don't hate the movie. I liked the dancing in it, but the movie just seemed like your typical feel-good Christmas movie, which isn't a bad thing. One of my problems is how nice they make the characters. I'm only saying this because previously these two (Monique Coleman and Corbin Bleu) played the couple Taylor and Chad. The contrast is that Taylor and Chad had sass. Taylor always had snarky remarks and Chad always had witty ones. Nonetheless, they were good friends.

It was just kind of hard seeing the same actors play characters who were too nice and didn't seem to have a lot of personality or flaws. That's some of the things I would look for in a character. That's one of the reasons why I loved High School Musical so much. The characters had fun and distinctive personalities. I feel like Hallmark and Lifetime could do a bit more of that in their movies. I don't know why that would hurt, even though they like to keep their plots plain.

Corbin Bleu and Monique Coleman are delightful in this nostalgic story about a young love, soulmates who find each other through dance, and their childhood Christmas vacations.

When closing the family inn means they could lose their connection to each other, and other children will miss having the Christmas of their lifetime, they're inspired to fight to keep it all alive.

The generation that grew with these two actors in High School Musical will be thrilled to see them as grown ups, but with the same wholesome and magical story. Adult love does not need to be overly forward or sexualized. If Hallmark does classy love successfully, why not Lifetime.

I'm very pleased with this beautiful movie, and others done this season, which show classy, and culturally inclusive stories that celebrate family and love in all its forms.

AND - Can we talk about those dance numbers?

Sooo awesome! Just a handful of modern TV Christmas movies are so artsy, do it right, and this one got it perfectly.

Please continue to make beautiful movies and to be a network that celebrates diversity Lifetime!

BRAVO!
