The Holiday Calendar

The concept of the movie and the calendar gifts were unique but the rest of the movie was average. First off they act like this girl is some struggling artist with her brand new car and her giant apartment. She's more like the daughter of a wealthy lawyer so she can be a photographer all she wants. Then the male lead has braids and a unibrow going on where it makes you root for the other guy. The meet cute with that other guy was pretty cute so the movie gets points there.

It's a holiday movie, don't expect too much . It's wachable. Poor acting dough... But I liked the idea with the calendar, I could use that one in real life... :) It's worth waching if you don't expect too much from a Christmas movie.

It's easy to say that yes this movie is highly predictable. I'd presume that's one of the reasons it's receiving a large load of bad reviews. I think coming from my point of view is that the film is like any other good Christmas movie. It's predictable although always has a moral behind it. It's worth giving a watch. No you're not going to watch it more then once this year but it's still pretty good.

I thought this was a cute holiday movie. I wouldn't say it's an awarding winning movie that truly touched my soul! No nothing like that. Just a cute, clean family movie. Def. gave me the Hallmark Christmas movie vibe.

If we're rating according to how well the movie accomplished its goals, I have to give this a rave review. Somehow Netflix noticed that people love watching bad holiday TV movies, so they made their own perfect versions, taking every gloriously terrible detail into account. The Holiday Calendar combines a ridiculous plot, adorably unrealistic characters, incredibly cheesy writing, over-the top scoring, and the perfect amount of cliche, both of the Christmas variety and of the bad movie variety. It's a perfected version of your average Hallmark movie, but without the soulless blonde leads. I have to take off one point because it's neither a "good" movie nor an official satire, but it certainly impressed me. Netflix understands TV watchers better than any television network.
