An average, run of the mill Hallmark movie. I figured out an answer to their conundrum about the tree in the first twenty minutes. The cast was generally competent, the material ordinary. The little girl was especially a treat.

I am getting a little tired of people getting upset here about Hallmark not sharing their bigotry. Christian values involve loving ones neighbor and in Hallmark films the populace usually does that quite nicely. Those are the values I hope my now grown son has. I believe he does.

People spouting off about family values should start by looking in their own backyard. In the Hallmark world, they most certainly act as Jesus would have...with love.

I feel sorry for the actors here. Rochelle Aytes and Mark Taylor did a great job in their roles as the leads. Their chemistry could have been better, although I'm not sure if that wasn't due to a very poor script, which is simply a hatchet job re-write of Miss Christmas. Aytes performance was very good. she's very likeable and believable and has wonderful chemistry with Grace Sunar, who plays Kevin's daughter, who also does a fantastic job. The script however, has one ridiculous plot point after another, making the movie hard to watch until the end. If it weren't for the acting here, I never would have finished it.
