Caitlin - Mein Geist der Weihnacht

Am I really watching a movie with Christina Milian and Chad Micheal Murray? Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. This movie has it all: hot men and Christmas. Chad Michael Murray smolders as the doctor love interest. I heard he really worked with a real doctor and emergency room for a week to get into character. This film is A Christmas Carol meets Clueless. This movie is charming and predictable. Ashley Benson is the comic relief and boy does she deliver! Christmas Cupid is a Christmas delight wrapped up in a present!

OK guys, let's face it. It's December, snow is falling and although we're stressed out, we want to relax and get into a Christmas mood. So we lean back and switch on "Christmas Cupid" in hope for a bit silly, but watchable movie.

I'm sorry I have to stop you right here. This movie is bad from the beginning to the end. The acting is dreadful, not in one million years do I buy the businesswoman on "the fast track". The storyline is somewhat incoherent, yet unforgivably predictable. Yes, we have all watched romantic comedies with a predictable ending, but this one has got to be one of the worst. Even calling it a "comedy" does it too much honour. The take on Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" was nicely thought, but horribly executed. Not to mention, that there was no cupid in the movie whatsoever.

This is not a movie I'd recommend for you to watch during Christmas time (or anytime, actually). Better go with some old classics, that'll really get you ready for the holidays!

Teens who want a relatable version of A Christmas Carol will flock to Christmas Cupid, starring the popular teen star from Pretty Little Liars, Ashley Benson. Ashley is the Jacob Marley to Christina Milian's Scrooge, and she visits her coworker to impart some life lessons before it's too late. As you can tell from the title, the main focus is love and finding Christina's happiness with another person, rather than just enjoying the Christmas spirit. But this is a teen movie - do you really expect it not to focus on boys, boys, boys?

Parts of it were cute, but it's really just geared to teenage girls. Diehard fans of the Dickens story will probably be appalled. Just as classic lovers should stay away from All American Christmas Carol, they should probably stay away from Christmas Cupid. But if you just like pretty girls in pretty dresses, giggling over which boy to kiss under the mistletoe, check out this festive comedy. You'll see some familiar faces, like Jackée, Burgess Jenkins, and Ashley Johnson.

Yet another Christmas Carol remake, this time with Christina Milan playing a money hungry pathetic Public relations exec. Of course its predictable, its Dickens's classic, but the acting is B- or C+ grade. The one positive is Ashley Benson who plays the modern Jacob Marley, she pretty much steals every scene, not that says much,

This movie is very entertaining. The music is bad, the acting is decent, and the story is pretty well done. I enjoyed the chemistry between all the characters, but the main character was the worst. It was hard to find something redeeming about her as the story went on. Patrick deserved way better than what he was given. But, like all movies, the ending was perfect for everyone. Overall, it's a nice Christmas movie with a good lesson.
