Rettet das Santaland

An obvious vanity piece for the leads who are husband and wife in real life. They see each other through rose-colored glasses.... The rest of us, not so much. Both are too old to be playing young thirtys, and the female lead's claiming to be a model is very hard to swallow and detracts from being able to buy-in to the story.

The film attempts to redeem itself by promoting good values to young girls (beauty is to be found in the heart and actions) but loses credibility by then using the film as a marketing vehicle to sell a bracelet and book (See trivia notes.)

The 10-star reviews appear to be solicited from friends of the actress.

Likewise, I can only believe that Schneider and and Bernsen, true actors, must have done this out of charity or a favor owed to the female lead.. this is well beneath their talents.

A disappointment.... And I like watching cheesy Hallmark-type movies. Skip this one and watch the "Love's Enduring" franchise for better story telling.

Predictable and not so entertaining. Some really bad acting here. The song "pen pals forever" should never be sung again - forever. And then some bad directing and bad filmography top it off.

If you have anything else to do - anything - do that.

How is the main girl a fashion model? She is not attractive, like, at all. The girl playing the assistant would have been a much more believable choice.

I can't believe a professional screenwriter out their name on this garbage. Awful script.

Typical hokey cliche story of a Christmas movie. The lead actress is far from looking like a fashion model and is more average in looks and has an annoying nasally voice. Other actors were ho-hum. Gave it a 3 only for the Christmas decor, scenery, homey feels. Really waste of time though.
