Christmas Planner - Was für eine Bescherung!

Thanks to David Hassellhoff and Caroline Rhea, this was actually a very funny movie. It's nice to see we can have a Hallmark/Lifetime movie that is not a romance. Good family dynamic and career conflict exploration. The only thing marring it was Caroline's demanding boss, and a melt-down near the end which was really hateful and crazy. Once amends were made and sanity restored, it ended on a heart-tugging note that one could see coming a mile away. Good comic acting, good humor in the script. I recommend it.

MmmIs David Hasselhoff a robot?!? It was a little much but it kind of make sense by the end of the movie. I love Caroline Rhea because I watched a lot of Sabrina the Teenage Witch (little biased). The movie was overall very cheesy but works for a background movie.

BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE FILM. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA. I AM HONEST!

This movie follows the Fletcher family, specifically perfume executive Maya (Caroline Rhea) and her equally busy husband Jack (Barclay Hope). Both of them are busy dealing with the stress of their demanding jobs as well as with the effect that a recent move for Maya's career has had on their children. In order to impress both her boss and a potential new client, Maya agrees to host a Christmas party at her new home. This puts extra stress on her especially since both her and Jack's relatives have made plans to spend the holidays at their new house.

Jack suggests that Maya hire Owen (David Hasselhoff), a prestigious Christmas consultant, to plan the party in her stead. Despite some initial hesitations, the Fletchers hire Owen, who states that he will work every day except for Christmas Day, which he will spend with his family.

The film has nice joyful quality about it. It is a typical "Holiday Christmas Movie" but it has enough genuine laughs that helps make this film stand out. Worth watching. Family Safe

Not sure which is worse, this lame movie or "A Christmas Story." Have only watch each of them once, but won't ever watch them again.

While it's not the greatest movie made, i really loved this movie. The acting is pretty good for a made for tv christmas movie, especially hasselhoff who goes really all out in his performance. I bought that on dvd a few years ago and it became my go to movie for christmas day every year mostly because of how charming this movie is.
