It was a little slow but Bridges was so adorable that it made it work. There were multiple comments in the reviews that it was not believable but she was too old for him. One reviewer even incorrectly switched their ages. He is just three years younger than she is - hardly a big difference. But he has a youthful look about him. Will watch this again and again. Why isn't he in more of these? I used to think his grandfather Lloyd Bridges was also extremely handsome.
Yet another Hallmark movie that follows that very familiar Hallmark recipe of how to construct a Christmas movie.But I will say that in this instance, it actually worked out quite well, because this movie managed to lift itself out of the average and somewhat generic gutter that these trademark Hallmark movies turn out to be.Why?Well, because of the storyline, although it was predictable to the core, but also because of the acting performances by a very motivated cast ensemble.This movie felt very magical and had something to offer for the entire movie. While it is not a Christmas classic, it is still a movie that is well worth the time and effort to sit down and watch with the family and loved ones.
This movie was mostly endurable because of Jordan Bridges.The plot is eerily similar to one with Candace Cameron except the roles were reversed.Certainly had some funny moments, the lead actress ending up on the roof and stranding the male lead on the ski lift.Cute..for a recycled plot! I also think the locale may have been the same!
I fell in love with Alison Sweeney watching DOOL in the 90's when she was the conniving monster Sammi Brady, so she can do no wrong. Still after all these years she looks good in a tight pair of jeans. Young ladies should take notes. Overall, the story is good with good supporting characters. I'm just not buying this guy Evan he looks way too young for her. Couldn't get past that.
