Memorable, crazy movie

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Yep. It wasn't that romantic, but possibly not the fault of the actors. Hallmark serves up such recycled scripts it's a wonder no one has caught on this can't last forever.
There was a lot of problems in this movie which were hard to miss, from the fake snow (blankets) to the sooo painfully digitally created car interior scenes, not to mention the reindeer who never really got their chance to shine...but I will give this one props for using a few new actors. Plus I did get in a real Christmasy mood.I only wish that hot chocolate was real.

Not that this movie was bad. For me it was more the fact it did not catch my interest. This is another of the - we're going to lose our inn- movies. Problem is, I didn't care that much. And closing it makes sense apart from the tradition aspect. I didn't think Nicky Whelan and Josh Kelly's characters connected. And their solution to the problem is lame.The details of this story were a little unusual, but not enough. Jared says early on to his dad that he has something of a situation, but that mystery doesn't really get explored unless it is the romance..This is pretty much what you expect from a Hallmark Christmas move. I enjoy them, but not this one. But for others who like this type of movie, you might find something to like.
Christmas-Reviewer
I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 400 ( C H R I S T M A S ) MOVIES AND SPECIALS.PLEASE BEWARE OF SOME REVIEWERS THAT ONLY HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. WHEN ITS A POSITIVE THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. NOW I HAVE NO AGENDA! I REVIEW MOVIES & SPECIALS AS A WAY TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT I HAVE SEEN! I HAVE DISCOVERED MANY GEMS IN MY QUEST TO SEE AS MANY " C H R I S T M A S " MOVIES AS I CAN. Someone keeps reporting my reviews. I guess they are jealous because I do tell the truth. I want to point out that I never make snide remarks about actors weight or real life sexual orientation. If there acting is terrible or limited "I talk about that". If a story is bad "I will mention that" So why am I being "picked on"? IMDB will not even tell me what someone found offensive. Well on to the review :A group of adults from different parts of the country have sworn off partaking in holiday events. Two of those people are Molly and Jared. Upon arriving at their destination, they discover it's a Christmas themed ranch. With no flight out until after Christmas!I do not want to give more story away. I will say it is what you expect but so well made. The casting is great and it has everything you would want in a "Christmas Movie". What I like about this film it hits its marks expertly. The film is about "Love" "Hope" , and "Forgiveness". I also like how it show traditions are important and its okay to make new ones throughout all of our lives. Of all the "Countdown To Christmas Movies 2017" this one was the best. I will see this again & again. Merry Christmas

The opening premise is kind of funny, but that was about all I could get into. I have these pretty high expectations now regarding hall mark christmas movies, some of them through the years have been surprisingly goodUnfortunately, this particular movie is pretty flat, kind of like eating cardboard. It might be something ladies may enjoy, but definitely not any interest for a guy. Even for one who has a short list of hall mark holliday favorites.Flat, bland, uninteresting, I guess it was just made to fill a slot on an agenda.
