Rocky Mountain Christmas

Cute leads. Good story. Centering on a ranch woman comes home for Christmas to lick her wounds from a break up and be with her uncle and brother after the death of her aunt. Enter heartthrob actor looking to learn ranch skills for his next movie. Flirtation ensues and heavy hearts as her uncle considers selling the ranch. Will this be the last Christmas on the ranch? Will she follow her head or her heart?

Cute movie worth a watch!

It's not too corny or cheesy in terms of the story. I always wonder what might happen if a common woman meets a highly-known star. They try to make it seems real, but they don't pull it off that well. It's not a blockbuster movie that costs a lot to make, so you'll understand better when I put it to you that way. It's worth a viewing or two and more if it comes around every Holiday season. It doesn't top the 'Christmas Getaway' movie as the premiere this week, but it's decent enough to watch. Give it a shot! It is better than some of the past Hallmark movies. And I just noticed that I'm the first to give this movie a review. Well, it just premiered two nights ago, so that's understandable.

The movie was fine until she got off on the right side of the horse after the parade. A real ranch girl would know better🙄

I enjoyed this movie, I like both of the lead actors. I kept wondering if the actor came to learn how to be a rancher for his next movie what happened to the "rancher" training. All the training that I saw was about decorating for Christmas. I just found this to be odd, seems to me the rancher training would have involved typical ranch duties.

Sarah Davis (Lindy Booth) is a hotel designer in New York City with a promotion on the way. Her romantic life is in the drains after getting dumped by her boyfriend. She tries to escape the public spotlight to her uncle Roy (Treat Williams)'s ranch. Her quiet Christmas is interrupted when entitled Hollywood star Graham (Kristoffer Polaha) shows up doing research for a role.

Treat Williams doesn't have much to do. It's mostly relying on sweet Lindy Booth. She has a big smile but she's not doing much else here. I recognize Kristoffer Polaha from various TV shows. The plot tries to have some drama but none of it has any tension. That's the case for most of these Hallmark movies. It's low intensity romance. There is no romantic triangle to be had. There is a small parade and Christmas lighting. This follows the Hallmark pattern and it's fine for those who love those types of movies.
