Das Weihnachtsherz - Das Geschenk meines Lebens

Greatest Christmas movie ever!! Wonderful story for the whole family! Wish I would have discovered this sooner! Such a refreshing change from all the holiday romances. The way they developed the story was excellent. A movie about faith brings hope to people😊

I loved watching this film. It's not the biggest film with a never ending budget and lots of special effects, but it does tell story and carries a really important message and it does it very well. It shows the power of compassion, co- operation, determination & community, but also shows that we all have the ability to make a difference if you are committed enough. If you watch this film and you finish it not having thought about what you should be thankful for and/or you don't feel even slightly uplifted, you are either cold hearted or have missed the point of the film. Don't read between the lines & try to over think it, just watch it & let yourself go along with the story line.

...said no one ever, while watching this movie.

But I guess if you need something this obvious to warm your heart and give you faith, this is the kind of movie you will enjoy. But hey, that's why they make these movies, isn't it?

This film is different. It is a feel-good film for December. It is about being kind, about being afraid for your loved ones, it is about the difficult subject which heart transplant is, and it is about our reactions and feelings when we are very scared that our loved ones will die. I watched it with my children, an 8 yo and a teenager. It kept us interested and we had strong sympathy for the persons in the movie. It gave us a lot to talk about, because the questions of life, death, organ donation and illness is not something that comes up in a day to day discussion. My kids were very interested in the subject and really interested in the film. On the other hand, the acting is often pretty bad in the film, it is often very soap-opera like. But the kids weren't concerned about it, acting in children's movies is often pretty bad anyway. I just bit my tongue sometimes so I wouldn't blurt out "ouch" when the acting was too much of a cliché. So, I highly recommend the film for what it is, a good film for parents to watch with their kids and teenagers, to think with them, and talk about some thought provoking subjects. It is also a gorgeous relief from all the films that are filled with gore and profanity, finding good films to watch with kids can be so hard these days. So, don't expect Oscar winning performance, just enjoy the ride and the good sides in this film.

The Christmas Heart is a little different story. The Pilot made this movie in my opinion although all involved were good. Loved the story on this one. James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 12/21/2020
