UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

kz917-1 Finally a movie where Candace Cameron Bure isn't completely annoying!Alan Thicke portrays CCB's father and tycoon of hip young hotels for the jet set.He sends CCB to take stock of his latest purchase and plan how to tear it all down and make it new and edgy for their clientele.Well what do you know but shortly after arriving and butting heads with the current owners son (Jesse Hutch) they soon begin to fall for one another!Can CCB convince her father to keep the family charm of their new purchase?!

Rob-o How do you pronounce Candice Cameron Bure's married name? Boo-ray? Byueree? My wife and I are confused about it. Perhaps the opening or closing credits can provide a pronunciation of her last name. It would be more helpful if it was the closing credits because we only watched the last 30 minutes of this movie on the Hallmark Channel this morning. This movie is really helping us look past Thanksgiving and toward Christmas, which is then followed by New Year's and Martin Luther King Day. I am now really excited for Martin Luther King Day.So this movie not only starred Candace Cameron Boo-ray, but also Alan Thicke and a guy who looked kind of like Channing Tatum. Alan Thicke has no Christmas spirit - this is evidenced by him eating at an empty restaurant on Christmas Eve. He then realizes his life is sad and he makes up with his daughter and gives his blessing for poor-man's Channing Tatum to become his son-in-law. I was pleasantly surprised by the explosion at the end of the movie. Seeing the closing credits roll over all of those charred bodies was the kind of twist that you don't see in too many Hallmark movies. Merry Xmas!

adoptshelterpetstoday Another great quality movie with the very talented, very enjoyable Candace Cameron-Bure!.......But was it absolutely necessary to dig up the talentless, drab, vocally-annoying Alan Thicke?.....Oh well, at least he didn't appear in it much......Anyway, everything else was on the plus side: the plot was very enjoyable. The location was ideal...all the scenery and décor was beautiful...wonderful! It was well written and had very good directing. The supporting cast was well-casted...no one was annoying...(as is the case sometimes in good movies otherwise)................Sometimes it's difficult to separate the actual person from the part he / she is playing. If their exposed personal standards are low, then that casts a shadow on what ever decent part they play.............. However, having heard Candace talk about her respectable personal / family life on "Home and Family," it's consistent with the respectable parts she plays, which makes her decent movies even more enjoyable to watch. In fact, I consider her to be the contemporary Doris Day........"You are a wonderful asset, Candace, for upholding moral standards in life and also for contributing them to the movie industry...which often tends to be risqué and offensive."

boblipton Alan Thicke's corporation has bought the Snow Valley resort from its third generation and sends his daughter, Candace Cameron Bure, to survey it. She arrives in the middle of its Christmas season and finds love with both Jesse Hutch and the idea of Christmas in this Hallmark Channel seasonal romantic comedy.It's a nicely written movie. Mr. Hutch is oppressed by four generations of tradition, including an elaborate series of events and recipes and even regular family guests which must be rigorously followed, with no room for the changes he wants to make. Ms. Bure feels rootless and enchanted by the order and beauty she sees about her. Add in some quite lovely camera-work of the snow-drenched landscape near Vancouver, and you have a fine holiday romcom.
