Alicia Witt's hair has life of its own!
23 January 2019
Yes, it's true! Her hair is able to move itself radically in a matter of only a second or two repeatedly throughout a scene. Look ma, no hands! My husband and I were entertained more by this than any intended facet of the movie. Bed head had its heyday. A hairbrush would be a good friend for Miss Witt.

The acting throughout the movie was terribly wooden; I can't remember when I watched something where I was unable to believe in a single character. Much of the weight of the actors' flat performances may be blamed, however, on a lackluster script.

As a professional musician, I was bored and then numbed by the repetitive motives of the never-ending background score.

I love Hallmark Christmas movies as part of my Christmas tradition. I fear we're seeing the result of the glut of too many premiere movies per season. The fresh quality once present is now often lacking. This one missed the mark on every level except for the unintended humor of the hair alive scene. For that, I give it a three.
