Bah Humbug Bad

As a person that really enjoys Hallmark movies, I was so disappointed by this borefest. Absolutely no chemistry between the leads. Shaw spoke in monotones and added smirks and frowns for insight into the role. Kevin McGarrity does pop on the screen. It is a shame he had nothing (script) and no one (lead actress) to work with.

I will point out one good part of the movie-the clues to the scavenger hunt.

Unfortunately, I would not recommend wasting your time with this movie. Watching may be hazardous to maintaining your Holiday Spirit.

Interesting idea

The premise of the scavenger hunt is slightly unusual. There is also a hint of random-acts-of-kindness. This latter is the one endearing thing about this movie and there are a few tender moments as a result.

For me, on the down side, there were too many tropes that I'm tired of. Save the town ______ (fill in the blank). If you do what you are assigned to you will get a promotion. Old flames and why-did-you-leave-me. Matchmaking father (or other family and friends). Workaholic current boyfriend. Christmas traditions ticked off like a list (in this case a scavenger hunt list). But all these things are just building blocks for the story, even if most of them are building blocks I'm not thrilled by.

The story was OK, but it didn't really have any highs or lows other than the random acts of kindness. I knew very early on exactly how the major conflict would be resolved, and of course the general course of the story was as predictable as usual in these movies.

This is a Christmas romance movie, so the real question is how appealing are the two potential lovers? By themselves, both Kim Shaw and Kevin McGarry do a fine job and their characters are certainly kind and generous. And the movie gave them plenty of screen time together. The problem is that their time together just didn't grab my enthusiasm. They were worked well together, but I didn't really care if they stayed together.

Even though I didn't think this was a great movie, there was nothing really wrong with it and many viewers, especially Hallmark Christmas enthusiasts, may very well love it.

Just OK...

Not one of hallmarks best Christmas movies. Kevin was good but no chemistry with the actress.Enjoy Tom Arnold character also. Storyline just not very interesting - I felt it dragged
