Fit for Christmas

Save the fitness center from big time developer. Audrey flees NYC after a boyfriend fight and failed business. The boyfriend won't give up and dangles a good job opportunity back in NY. The lead couple crashes into each other and they exchange unpleasantries. Of course, he is the developer's son. Though the fundraiser project is a bit on the unusual side.

Amanda Kloots brings a lot of energy, maybe a bit too much, to the part of Audrey. She and Paul Greene have good chemistry, but the sparring part of the relationship continues past halfway in the movie. The other acting is good. The script is decent with some funny moments even if most of it is filled with the usual Christmas activities and contests and too much of the checklist "you like him".

Overall, this story is more of the usual stuff with no great highs or lows or surprises. It appeared originally in primetime on a legacy network where it is a little different from their norm, but it would get totally lost amid all the similar movies shown on the 24/7 Christmas movie networks like Hallmark and Lifetime.

One of the better hallmark romantic comedy's Amanda Koots was an excellent choice for the lead. Great chemistry between two leads also no distractions with other characters. Almost felt like the original hallmark movies were done. Just an good old fashion Christmas movie. Not overdone no hitting you over the head. Enjoyable movie.

Supporting characters were just that good supporting cast. But the best part is Amanda Koots. I was pleasantly surprised by her actong OK and how much she jelled with the lead. In addition no hidden messages by hallmark or characters this was. Refreshing movie and much better typical rom coms.

Is it just me but was the lead female,just way over the top no matter what? But seeing how she had so much input,no wonder or another more suitable actress would of been chosen.

Was like a typical Hallmark holiday movie,just on another channel.

Another overdone storyline,full of clichés galore! Oh no,a corporation is taking over & we(small town residents)must rebel.. At least it wasn't about saving the holiday fair or something as generic,lol.

Liked that all the decor,but still didn't help save this movie.

Overall cast decent,enjoy Paul G & acting was fine by other cast but again.. The lead female,ugh!

I suggest she go back to acting school,if it wasn't how the director told her to be.. During parts of the movie looked as though she had odd hair highlights or tinsel,a bit distracting.

Check this out,if you can't find"anything"to watch.

I was so excited for this movie as a Paul Greene fan, he's so charming, talented and always fun to watch. He had such amazing chemistry with the darling Amanda Kloots!! This movie is Amanda's movie debut, she also serves as co writer and producer. She/Her character have such great energy and is beyond gorgeous. Amanda and Paul looked like they were having an absolute blast filming this and it was just as fun to watch as a viewer. I love that fitness was at the forefront and of course a love triangle. There's so much humor, love, festivity and of course all the feels. Loved Paul Greene and Amanda Kloots together on a major network broadcast movie, such a fun film!

Apparently, I am in the minority but I did not love this movie. While like many, I am a fan of both Amanda and Paul, I found the swing in Audrey's personality from over-the-top bubbly fitness instructor to hostile Griffin hater just too much, and not realistic - particularly in the opening scenes. I also found some of the fitness segments a bit frantic. Perhaps some of this is over-acting or just the nature of a quickly made film with minimal re-takes. Hoping all the holiday moviemakers will move on soon from the same old save the (fill-in the blank) trope. There must be creativity out there. This one - like many others this season - was formulaic.
