Christmas on Holly Lane

A sweet, fun Christmas movie for all the family. This movie has more depth than your average cheesy festive watch. Behind the fun and preparations for Christmas is the theme of strong friendships that last the test of time.

This was really better than I ever thought it was going to be. Not your typical Christmas storyline but still a bit predictable. I found this refreshing! It was such a nice change of pace. It shows us that we all have problems and the importance of having friends and family to share them with and allowing each other to help each other. I enjoyed the different pace of this Christmas movie and glad they took a chance by not following the pack! Three friends from childhood who lift each other up and truly believe in each other. It has more real life pitfalls than your typical Christmas movie does but I think that's why I really enjoyed it. Just a nice change of pace!

Christmas on Holly Lane tells a story of three friends growing uptogether. Sarah, Riley, and Cat bond one Christmas. Riley a child of two alcholics and Kat who lost her parents and was taken in by cousins. Kat in paticular never experience a family until that day she bonded with her friends.

What a nice movie!Not the usual Christmass movie, it's more like how 3 long time friends change their lives for better.Just watch this movie and i am sure you will like it.

The film is good. When I saw the actress playing the role of "Sarah" I knew I have see her somewhere. I had to google the film and discovered that it's the same wonderful Sarah Lancaster from Chuck. I admire the friendship between Sarah , Riley and Cat. I have always love friends that are always there for each other during the good and bad times. The friendship between the three friends is very nice and wonderful. I will rate this movie 9/10.
