A Wish for Christmas

BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA OR TIES TO FILMS I REVIEW.

It seem like Hallmark has 3 actresses they cast in all their films. "Lacey Chabert" "Candace Cameron-Bure" and "Alicia Witt". I am just waiting one day to see them all in one film together or it least have their Hallmark Movies take place in the same town. Well anyway this is my review of a solid Hallmark film that is one of the better ones I have seen this year.

In this film Lacey plays Sara a sweet young hard working career woman who people take advantage of. Her friend makes her do her work (And pick up coffee for her staff) and her boss just stole her idea and presented it as his own. Now at an office Christmas Sara is given a wish by a secret Santa. Her wish is for that she wants to not be afraid of speaking up for herself. Well guess what her wish comes true and she gets instantly reported after the big boss hears Sara giving her boss the riot act.

The story takes a predictable turn but you will still enjoy the romance. The film works and is highly enjoyable. Please watch it. It is one of the better films made so for that I have seen this year.

This is Lacey Chabert's 6th Christmas Movie and it is her best. I was about ready to give up on her. Finally a movie with some excitement that I don't fall asleep watching it. This was a good role for her. As unassertive Sara Thomas, she is wronged and is granted a wish to have the courage to speak up for 48 hours. Many scenes where she surprises by speaking up- all good. It was well done and the anticipation of what she is going to say/do next keeps the movie exciting. The admiration of her boss is just great and really makes the movie. The role of the boss is well done. Also the zillionaire Wilson was well played. The reviews preceding this one indicate a movie similar to her other five. No. This movie is much better. I will watch this one again and I am very happy it was good.

Just to remind. Matchmaker Santa (2012), Royal Christmas (2014), Tree that Saved Christmas (2014), Family for Christmas (2015), A Christmas Melody (2015).

This movie was so cute!! I loved the two leads, Paul Greene and Lacey Chabert, two Hallmark legends! They were so fun to watch together and I really love how the story incorporated more than just one theme. This story had some magic, lessons on believing in yourself, forgiveness and more! Especially compared to some of the thinly-veiled plots that are coming out this year (Holiday 2019) on Hallmark, this one is definitely a cut above! It's so cute and most importantly it's about family, friends and lifting up one another all year long! Christmas 365 :)

A Wish for Christmas is the perfect movie for the meek and mild this holiday season. Hallmark's Lacey Chabert stars as a classic pushover: she brings coffee for everyone in the office, does her colleague's work, and lets her boss steal her ideas. When she makes a Christmas wish for courage, her request is granted.

Along the way in her newfound life, Lacey takes charge of her career and starts to fall in love with her boss's boss, Paul Greene. Paul has his own demons to face, and the upbeat and slightly pushy Lacey helps him return home to face them with his family. In typical Hallmark fashion, this movie is more corny than realistic. I mean, if you'd really spent your whole life being a pushover, could you tell people off and they'd accept it? But it's Christmas, so we make allowances for cheesy plot lines, tidy endings, and embarrassingly terrible Christmas caroling. Give this one a watch when it makes a repeat appearance on television; it's not the best but it's entertaining.

Lacey Chabert is a very good actress, but her film is mediocre and very boring.
