I Have Reviewed OVER 400 Christmas MOVIES.
On all Christmas movies BEWARE OF FAKE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. Many reviewers have only have ONE REVIEW. When it's a POSITIVE REVIEW chances are that the reviewer was involved with the production. If its a negative review then they may have a huge grudge against the film for whatever reason. I am fare about these films. The only reason why I review them is to keep track of what "I have seen".
In this film
Two New York City-bound travelers find themselves inextricably linked when a snowstorm reroutes them to an airport hotel in Buffalo. Ever the eternal optimist and hopeless romantic, Paige desperately needs to find a way back home to meet her fiancee's parents before her forthcoming wedding. And it's somehow up to fellow passenger Dylan MacKenzie, who is permanently soured on romance following a recent heartbreak.
Candace limited acting range is very limited but she does a good job here. She doesn't have to stretch too hard for this film. However as much as I did enjoy this I think the film would have been much better had of cast "Alicia Witt" in this one.
Family safe but kids and most men will hate this.

Doesn't make sense
None of the characters are likable in the beginning of this movie, especially not Paige and Dylan. In Dylan's case, his humor might grow on you. Paige's disposition might partially be explained by her anxiety, even though she denies having any.
Even though their animosity towards each other seems to suddenly disappear, it is still hard to understand much of what happens between them after the change. Why in the world would she suddenly be willing to kiss him. The improvement is still nothing close to any reason for romantic feelings. There has been nothing between them to explain it. I realize that it is a common movie device to have two people who start out antagonistic turn into lovers, but in this case it is a transparent device - there is not enough spark. At best, the two just don't spend enough good times together.
Frank and Maxine's story is interesting, and definitely more reasonable.
There isn't enough humor to make up for the poor, unbelievable story.
