Christmas Bells Are Ringing

Review Date 7/7/2019

I have Reviewed OVER 500 "Christmas Films Christmas Television show episodes and Television Specials". Please BEWARE Of films and specials with just one review! For instance When "It's a POSITIVE" chances are that the reviewer was involved with the production. "If its Negative" then they may have a grudge against the film for whatever reason. I am fare about these films. I am on a mission to watch every Christmas Movie ever made. Since 2014 I average 100 a year.

Sam grew up spending summers at her family's vacation home on Cape Cod, where she and Mike, a local boy, became inseparable friends. The untimely death of Sam's mother brought those summers to an end for Sam, who couldn't bear the thought of returning. Thirteen years later, they meet again when she returns to Cape Cod for her father's Christmas Eve wedding.

What is nice about this is that this film is not about a woman looking for love or giving on love. Its about a woman who is hoping to land a big job and falling in love with her childhood food. The scene at the wedding is 100% accurate on how most people would feel in her situation. Bravo on the writing.

I think most people over 30 will enjoy this film the most because you can relate to the issues that pop up in this wonderful little gem.

I will watch again. Josh Kelly is so charming I can't wait to see what he does next!

We enjoyed the movie very much. I do understand filming is difficult but BC does not substitute for Cape Cod. Different vibe all together.

I'm never a big fan of cheesy holiday movies but this one was good. It wasn't overacted or too "cheesy." I really liked the lead actress.

Living here in the UK, the geography of the film wasn't a concern, but the story line and acting was far better than a lot of Hallmark's output. The lead players admittedly had little chemistry, but Emilie Ullerup is pleasant to watch and her acting is far superior to most of those in Hallmark's stable.

I would say - again from the point of view of someone in England, but is Deck The Halls the only carol ever sung in the States ? because according to Hallmark its the only one ever played in their films; with the odd O Come All Ye Faithful and Silent Night thrown in.

Seems the dad Mark Humphrey and Rebecca Staab soon to be stepmom look younger than Emilie Ullerup and Josh Kelly beautiful movie scenery
