Christmas in Homestead

This is a great family movie that has a number of different themes and some wonderful surprises. I really enjoyed the writing and plot of the story and the casting of the actors. There was more humor than I expected and even the minor characters had some good story lines. In addition, the plot took some twists that I hadn't predicted and I was left wondering about the fate of the characters until the end. The backdrop of the Christmas town was well thought out and provided a good surrounding scene for the development of the story and added that wonderful Christmas atmosphere. This is a movie worth recording on your DVR and watching while it's snowing outside and you're sitting under a blanket with a hot chocolate.

Not too bad as these movies go. Fairly believable and love that it was filmed in Dahlonega, GA, I only live 45 mi from there.

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 MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA.

In 1999 Julia Roberts starred in the motion picture "Notting Hill". The plot elements from that story is stolen and used for this film "Christmas in Homestead". What is nice about this version is that it runs faster than "Notting Hill" and the Christmas theme works well.

"Christmas in Homestead" is about one of the most famous actresses in the world. Her latest film is now shooting in the Christmas- obsessed town of Homestead, Iowa, to shoot a holiday-themed movie. She is thrown for a loop when a romance brews between her and local inn keeper and single dad, Matt. She is not not a "Christmas Lover" or "Hater" she just never took the time to enjoy "Christmas".

What is a nice touch in this film is that they make leads likable. They are not adversary's that fall in love. They are two people that meet each other at the right time. Also it doesn't make Hollywood filmmakers jerks. It makes them caring people that are doing their best to keep everybody happy and not destroying "Homestead".

This is a sweet film. Worth watching

Although the topic has been covered many times, the movie was interesting and done fairly well. You'll find the daughter adorable and root for unlikely love to win out.

When a famous movie star travels to a small town and falls in love with a single dad, will it work out or will their different backgrounds get in the way? In Christmas in Homestead, the incredibly beautiful Taylor Cole and the handsome and sensitive Michael Rady are paired up together. They have great chemistry together, and from their first scenes together, it's easy to root for them.

While the basic story of the movie isn't the best or most complex in the world, the romance makes up for it. Plus, it's always fun to watch beautiful people on the big screen, and Taylor is gorgeous! Brooklyn Rae Silzer, Michael's daughter, is also very pretty, and her sweet personality makes you hope she'll have a career when she gets older. I have a soft spot in my heart for this movie because it reminds me of a real-life experience of mine, so since everyone has different memories, I might like this Hallmark Christmas movie more than the average Jane. Then again, if I found it accessible, you might too! Give it a try the next time it's aired on television and see if you get swept up in the romance between the beautiful actress and the small-town hotel owner.
