Holiday Road Trip

He is only good actor in this lame movie Patrick Is awful actor and female lead Ashley bland.

Streaming tv will not last long with such awful movies.

Even this 9 yr old movie is bad.

This is a fun movie with lots of humor. And it's enjoyable to watch the female lead's transformation as a character.

Ashley Scott plays an executive for a company that produces pet supplies. Just after getting into a fight with her boyfriend about their relationship status, she takes up with the company's mascot and the company president's son on a road trip across America at Christmastime in an effort to get home for the holiday season.

Susan Olson, Donna Pescow, and Mindy Cohn also played roles in this film, which, when I stumbled across the names, piqued my interest, so when I found out it was on TV, I hunkered down for the evening with the movie. It's not bad, but a bit clichéd. If you have a couple of hours during the holiday season and it airs in your area, go for it! But don't break up any holiday plans to sit down for it...you'll be disappointed.

I watch a lot of Hallmark Christmas movies every year, although this is not one of them, it is a refreshing break from the predictable script. It even has a stripping Santa but don't worry it is a PG movie. Funny with a lot of well known actors and actresses.

I've watched a bunch of Christmas movies with Patrick Muldoon. I was trying to understand what's happened to him. Has he always been a mediocre actor? His roles often are so cringy to the degree that it's not funny anymore. All the magic that you expect from cinema is gone. You feel exhausted after watching those low-budget, zero talent works. Probably he keeps doing it for money.

Anyway, "Holiday Road Trip" while it looks exactly like one of the other typical TV movies with Patrick Muldoon, it's not that bad as the vast majority of them. I enjoyed Ashley Scott's acting abilities. She was surprisingly good, she made me believe her character. She was not afraid to show insecurities. It was a refreshing break from the trending "weak man and strong businesswoman" cliche. It's still there, but it's dosed and is not the driving force for the story.

Speaking of. Story may seem as unoriginal, predictable, unrealistic, far from good, but it gets the job done for me. It still delivers that sense of romance when you find someone to join you on your journey through life. There is a scene in the movie:

• I've tried to escape my boring predictable life, and see what happened.

• For a minute you were pretty cool".

It's exactly what I want to wish to those involved in making predictable, dull, awkward movies. Please take a risk. It may happen that the result will surprise you.

Overall it's better than the other one I've watched with Patrick, where everyone farts, or burps. I've faith in him, he can do better than average...
