Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

There are Christian movies and their are Christmas movies, some good, some bad.
Christmas Grace will never and should never escape church basement showings
before a congregation that I'm not sure thinks people behave as they do in this
film.I thought for a bit I was going back to the 50s when I remember a small toy store
three blocks from my house in Brooklyn on Nostrand Avenue between Avenue J
and Avenue K. Stores like the one that Ryan-Iver Klann and Rebekah Cook own haven't existed for decades. And I sure wouldn't think that Tim Kaiser
would start a new one. Just days ago chain Toys R Us has just gone out of
business.But there it is. Klann and Cook are a Christian couple that own a small toy
store in a small town and one fine day Tim Kaiser comes along and opens
another one across the street. He's well financed and also pulls something
sneaky and underhanded and the little toy store goes belly up.But it rebounds in a few months because of an idea Klann has and pretty soon
they've got Kaiser on the ropes business wise. Kaiser who's a real Grinch of a
human being is really getting his.What follows is so incredibly off the wall that I was stunned looking at the film.
Believe me in real life NO ONE is that generous.Not even hardcore evangelicals truly believe what happens here in their real
lives.

I am sure whoever wrote this film thought he had a winner however the film is no winner. The poorly constructed film suffers more problems than a senior citizen in a rest home on life support. Let's start with the story. A man has owned a store for years. He gets put out of business by a man who opens up a competing store. Our hero loses not only his store but not his faith. the reality is he lost his mind. In real life most women would of dumped him but his Stepford Wife sticks with him. See our hero decides to re-open his store after he makes a fortune on some toy. He then CONVERTS the devil that put him out of business.This whole film is stupid. The acting is nothing to brag about. The only thing good about this film is that there will not a be a sequel! If there is I won't see it. I think the film (as someone else stated) be remade. The idea of it is "good" it was just written poorly and acted with nobody with any talent!

I saw the reviews of this film and I had to judge it for myself. This film had so many "Good Reviews" and many "Bad Reviews". I had to see it just to see who was right. I figured out quickly the "Bad Reviews" were justified. There is many things that can wrong in a film. The casting. The directing. The story itself. So what went wrong here? Well "Everything"! Mainly the story was just too stupid and the actors were all terrible. Since this is a "Christmas Film" I expect a message about Jesus and the true meaning of Christmas. What I got here was a stupid film about a man who is a moron who is married to another moron. The film is not just bad but it is also boring. The best thing about this film is knowing I never will have to see it again!

Christmas movies are nice to watch. They can be really good or really bad. This film SUCKS. I don't mind films with a "Christian Theme" I mean after all "Christmas" is about the birth of Jesus. What I hate is films that are badly done. The worse offenders are movies like this that have "nothing of value". Unless You want to make a coaster out of the DVD. The Jacket Art is much better than the film. The problems with "Christmas Grace" is that the writing is bad. The cast is bad. The sound is bad. The plot is bad. The photography is bad. In this film a man who is a Christian loses his toy store when a chain store opens up on the same street as his. This does not cause him to lose his faith but it also drives him to rebuild his life and later re-open his store. The general idea of this film is fine "But it was badly done". The writer/director has no clue how to construct a film however none of the actors are any good. There is better acting in porn films.If you look at the "GOOD REVIEWS" they were all written in 2-3 day period. That makes me question the integrity of them. I think they were written by people who made the film. DO NOT BOTHER TO WATCH THIS. MAYBE IS YOUR DRUNK IT MIGHT BE GOOD!
