Anything but Christmas (2012)

like many others Christmas movies. bitter-sweet, with few trips around dark memories from childhood. and the family as the best cure. modern, for the hypothesis of vulnerable Prince Charming, helped by the wise step son and the powerful Princess. the best part - inspired skill of Sergio Di Zio to propose his character as convincing, realistic and seductive. short, an inspired variation for a generous theme. remembering old small truths and using the fear by Christmas holiday, not so rare in our time, in wise way. so, a nice film. not great, maybe not memorable. but, useful.

This movie is so tedious and idiotic...and NOT in a "funny" way.It's as if none of the actors were given full scripts to work from..no one speaks in complete,understandable sentences and WAY too much time is wasted on ....what I PRESUME.... is supposed to be funny spots?Conversations never seem to come to any clear conclusion.I have actually watched it in its entirety..hoping there would be SOMETHING worthwhile at the end....but there was no tie ups...no explanations for the lead actress's very odd behavior and little more to explain the lead actor's hatred of Christmas.To make it worse.... the lead actress LOOKS and SOUNDS like Nancy Grace which is just too much for anyone to HAVE to tolerate for over a minute.A complete waste of a movie.

Excellent movie! It was light, funny and just what I needed. One of my favorite actors, Sergio Di Zio is in it and was awesome. Elaine Hendrix was in it. She's never been a favorite, but i absolutely adored her in it. The supporting cast was great, too. There was a realistic storyline that was touching and believable, I saved it on my DVR from the first year and watched it throughout the years. Unfortunately, it got erased and I haven't seen it since Christmas. I'm trying to fine a place where I can purchase it, but haven't been able to yet. Any suggestions of where it can be purchased? I'm really needing a Anything But Christmas fix.

I notices the title scroll by on the TV listings and I thought it sounded different. I caught it about a half hour into it and it was at a relatively interesting and exciting point in the plot. Overall I'd say the humour and romance are sort of cheap and cheesy compared to some major films but the spirit and heart of the story are strong. Ultimately the end is the best part in my opinion so don't let the one other review on here turn you away. Somehow I don't think many people will be checking these reviews prior to watching the film because it is one of those TV movies that most people who watch it would he channel surfers like I. Enjoy it of you haven't seen it!
