Ghosts of Christmas Always

Production quality and acting better than most. Really good story my wife and I both enjoyed, Several surprises in the story that we didn't see coming which again was refreshing for a Hallmark movie and usual Christmas movies. Diverse cast is good to see and where some of the secondary parts were the kind you wanted to know more about by the end. The movie is a bit of a mystery through-ought and it's not about girl getting the guy she wants, although there is a bit of that. The characters don't really know what is going on or think they know and you get to experience them figuring out as they go along. Solid Christmas movie.

We're all familiar with the cookie cutter (literally) Christmas tv movies that give us endless variations on the same 4 or 5 basic storylines. This movie is a refreshing change of pace, offering a unique & quirky take on the familiar Scrooge tale. The ensemble cast really clicks and the dialogue is snappy & brisk, the emotions are honest & believable. The ghost of Christmas past is a hoot and has some great one-liners. Of course there's a happy ending, but with a surprising twist. This is one of the most enjoyable Hallmark Christmas movies that I've seen in many years. A thoroughly entertaining and heartwarming story. Well done!

When I review Hallmark, I rate based on other Hallmark shows I've seen because that's what I hope for when I check the IMDB rating before I decide to watch a movie. I already know what to 'sort of' expect. This one is different!! Ghosts of Christmas Always is a definite must see. The script is so unique taking us on a 'sorta familiar' ride but then the twists and turns. The number of times I said "Wait a minute!?" and couldn't wait to see where the story was going to go next. The performances all deserves high accolades with a wonderful blend of heart and humour. AND of course Christmas magic. I loved this one! Bravo Hallmark.

It's become a yearly tradition to try and watch as many Hallmark holiday movies as we can. For the most part, 30 minutes into each, we can figure out how they'll end but continue to watch because Hallmark gives us that escape from reality and a good feeling. This movie hower, was so very different and had a great twist at the end. It had just about everything you could want in a great rom-com, comedy, romance, heartache, tragedy and a great finale!

The actors were great each with their own little quirks to pull off this fantasy of a story. We may have given this a 10 star rating but, when the movies was over we both had to think and talk about the ending and say, oh yes....that must be what happened. This was the best Hallmark holiday movie we've seen in memory. Highly recommend it. This is one we'd watch again to pick up on things we might have missed or just to enjoy it again.

Sometimes some of my "pre-season Christmas movie picks" end up being a let down and others (like this movie) end up being a pleasant surprise. I absolutely loved Ghosts of Christmas Always and the movie's new twist on a classic! This was my first time seeing Kim Matula and Ian Harding. They had a lovely chemistry and sparkled in their Hallmark debut-And I will tune in every single time "Carl Winslow" is in a movie (more of him, please!) The "scrooging" ghosts had a fun and fresh dynamic together. This was a heartwarming movie that really checked off all my boxes for a feel good Christmas movie. My family will watch every Christmas season!
