Snowcapped Christmas

Great movie with great scenery and predictable story line. Obviously the writers know nothing about ice fishing. Five people never share one hole in the ice and worms and standard fishing poles are not used by ice fisherman! In the ice skating scene the little girl is given like two minutes on the ice. Ridiculous! Otherwise a nice family movie with a common ending!

I liked Falling for Christmas because it was not your typical holiday movie. The theme was about dreams but not just fantasy, it was about real life decisions. It was not a sugar-coated fairy tale yet it was full of drama and hope. The setting was interesting and beautiful. There was a good dose of comedy mixed in, just enough to give a chuckle or two. It left me with a good feeling and instilled a hope that there is always more to look forward to. I would recommend this movie to all ages. I enjoyed it very much.

Nice chemistry from Hallmark fave Niall Matter and his costar put the cherry on top of this one. Good story with some tension and suspense and the bad guy turns out out to have some comic potential as well. Lisa Whelchel is charming as the Mom and her secondary romance with Niall's brother? Uncle? fills the time nicely. Fits in with the Hallmark ethos without the usual themes of saving the (fill in the blank), town v. country, or royal imbroglio.

A bit lame and hokey but enjoyable. An international figure skater is sent to a mountain rehabilitation retreat center and meets a former hockey player and learns maybe there is more to life after skating. Cute premise and story, nice to see Lisa Whelchel from Facts of Life! The only thing that was "off" were the fake vista screens for some of the outdoor shots. Enjoyable overall.

Canadian movie with Canadian actors, filmed in the Canadian mountains, my wife and I were able to watch it on Amazon streaming movies.

These Hallmark movies all have a familiar theme, two very attractive people who happen to be single for different reasons meet, there is mild friction at first, but as they get to know each other find they are in fact a perfect couple.

Leah Renee is 30-ish Claire Benson, figure skater who aspires to her country's championship in a few weeks but she has an injury. She is sent to a clinic at a resort in the mountains to see a specialist and recover properly.

Her limo stranded in the new snowfall she is given a lift by 35-ish Niall Matter as local Luke, driving his snowmobile. They don't know anything about each other but he is a retired multiple MVP professional hockey players so he probably owns the resort and everything near it.

It also happens that Luke has a young daughter, aspiring figure skater, who recognizes Claire, so there is that additional opportunity for bonding.

Overall a very pleasant movie with attractive characters and a bit of comedy from situations Claire's coach gets into when he visits her in the mountains.
