Christmas at Grand Valley

To critic a Hallmark Christmas film seems, for many reasons, a fundamental mistake. Because the recipe is so clear, precise and superficial than the high expectations are bizarre. In this case, the recipe gives the consolation. Entire one. The story is poor and good intentioned, the performances are not surprising and the predictability is the expected one. And the twist... . So, nice.

The coolest thing about this movie is The Wonder Years Kevin Arnold's grumpy dad (Dan Lauria), here playing the cheerful father of The Wonder Years ' Winnie (Danica McKeller). Other than that, there really isn't much here....

I would have to agree with most of the other reviewers here. This movie was just plain ole boring. The leads had ZERO chemistry together. I always enjoy BE but whose idea was it to cut his hair that way?.... No, no, no... he's so handsome but wow, that hair cut was the worst. While I like DM, I just find her acting to be the same... same sad faces, same bewildered look.... idk... but this movie had no zest, no zeal.. no spark! Sorry :-(

This year of holiday moves on Hallmark have been a real hit or miss for the 2018 season. This isn't one of their worst but it's not one of their better either. I happen to love Brennon Elliot and I enjoy quite a bit of Danica McKellar movies. I was expecting so much. Danica has been in so many Christmas Hallmark movies that I enjoyed except this movie. This movie just fell short. The supporting cast was great. I found myself more intrigue by the supporting cast story than the actually main story. I can't say if Brennon and Danica just didn't have good chemistry or if this was just a poorly written movie. I usually rematch the Christmas Movies as much as I can before hallmark goes back to their regular programming, it's safe to say I saw this once and won't be watching it again. I hope Hallmarks 2019 Christmas countdown line up has better movies than the 2018 line up.

Danica McKellar and Brendan Elliott are so miscast and dull.Grand Valley town is beautiful story just blah.best person is Vera the dad and the kids . Danica McKellar and Brennan Elliott so plastic looking not like real people . Danica always overacts like a drama queen she was good as a child actress but should stick to math skills.those awful fake eyelashes.Brennan doesn't fit in Hallmark too Hollywoodish
