Fantastic

I first saw this movie in a re-run, and only saw the last half. After seeing the last half, I just couldn't wait to watch it from beginning to end. This is the kind of movie that after you start watching it you just can't leave it for any reason until it's over. All of the actors and actresses just made it so believable that you felt like you were friends with the characters at the end. I didn't even realize that Roma Downey was playing Kathleen until I'd been watching it for a few minutes. You wouldn't expect her to be good at the part of a struggling single mother, but she really was. It had the perfect casting combination, and the writers also knew what they were doing. It had a great plot, and is a movie that people would enjoy at just about any age. It's rare that you see a movie like this on television today.

A fantastic movie, my husband even likes this one.

This movie really needs to be put on video. This would add the perfect touch to not only mine but alot of family's video collection. Believe me I know alot about movies and videos. This is a great opportunity to reach alot of homes during the holiday.

Corporate exec needs a wife to finalize a deal

When a businessman decides to move the shop to Mexico for an improvement in profits he must impress the buyer with, not only the price, but with his image as a solid family man. The problem is he's a swinging bachelor. A plot is hatched to hire a woman and her child to pose as the spouse and offspring of the executive in order to push through he deal. After the "wife" moves in everything moves along smoothly for awhile but eventually begins to unravel. A christmas angel in disguise is present to soften the businessman's uncaring heart. Good holiday film.

This is basically a "coming to know what love is" movie using the atmosphere of Christmas

The inevitable happy outcome is telegraphed almost from the opening credits, however the characters are engaging enough to hold the viewer for entirety of the formulaic journey. A few plot elements do seem a bit of a stretch. For one, Hector Elizondo will buy the business provided the current owner is a family man, yet plans to move the business to Mexico causing the current employees to lose their jobs. For another, the natural father begs to see his little girl at Christmas, but only long enough to tell her that he can stay only for a day. Why bother to see her at all, one thinks.

Romantic Fluff But Fun

I liked this movie. Yes, it is formulaic. There is no doubt in your mind this is going to be a boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl. It is simply this: a feel good movie. And if you don't mind seeing a movie that has "been done before", slightly different plots, different actors, cute kids, at Christmas, and you love the moment the boy and girl realize they love each other, then get your mug of hot cocoa, grab some holiday presents you need to wrap, and watch something that doesn't require your rapt attention. I personally am a sucker for romance: corny, Disney, Classics, Jane Austen, Bronte, TV shows/ movies, etc, etc. As long as boy gets girl, happy ending, I'm in! It's okay to like movies like this: fluff entertainment. Every movie doesn't need to be deep.
