I'm Glad It's Christmas

As a professional musician, I am horrified that this woman (Jessica Lowndes) is called a singer. Simply listen to her duet of Deck the Halls with Paul Greene and you know she is not. She cannot match pitch and maintain a key from one phrase to the next. Maybe this was because of multiple takes? If so, why was there no consistent key established? Shame on the music production team for allowing something so painfully out of tune to make it to the final version. Maybe they can't hear pitch either. My musician husband and I rewound the scene about five times with our jaws on the floor. Have never heard such an unprofessional final musical product in a movie, except where the singer was SUPPOSED to be awful, like Florence Foster Jenkins. And then came Joy to The World, which wasn't. Sad to build an entire movie plot around this woman singing, when she cannot. I scored as high as four stars only because Gladys Knight and Paul Greene CAN sing.

It was a beautiful simple Christmas movie. It was not as cringy as some Christmas movies but no need to overanalyse. Just watch it when in the right mood - aka around Christmas and enjoy the story. And in this day and age where everything is littered with virtue signalling, it was nice to watch something clutter free and wholesome.

A group of people working hard, trying to reach their dreams, opportunity knocking, supporting each other even when it means letting go and making the tough decisions one needs to make it in life.

Overall great vibes and brings the Christmas cheer to life. I enjoyed it.

I seriously don't know WHY the Title of the movie is Listed WRONG here on this web page!!??? The correct title is as Listed in my preface above!!

This is an adorable movie with some wonderful singing. Gladys Knight ads some sparkle in her character. Yes, it's a typical boy with baggage meets girl but it's supposed to be a "feel good" story or it wouldn't be on this channel.

I think some of the critics here were critical because the story could've moved a little faster, there's a little bit too much "eye gazing" between girl and boy and there is a "Scrooge" person amongst the characters that the story probably could've done without, but hey, it's a Christmas movie.

I personally think with the awesome voices in the crowd there should've been More Singing, because it's a Christmas movie!!

It's definitely worth watching!!

I'm Glad It's Christmas- was so enjoyable to watch & to have all 3 leads sing and sing together was fantastic!

This was not a typical Christmas cookie cutter Christmas movie! Don't understand the negative reviews? Please spread love not hate, especially during Christmas. The movie featured all new original songs. Beautiful voices and top acting from Gladys, Paul & Jessica. The chemistry between Paul Greene & Jessica Lowndes was pretty amazing. They were beyond adorable together. And how lucky are we to have THE iconic Gladys Knight in a holiday movie?! Such a blessing & gift, please watch feel good this movie! Absolutely loved the all the singing and would love to see more beautiful moments like these in upcoming Christmas movies.

I am so sorry this movie is so bad! The script is soooo boring, and so slow!!! Let's say Jessica keeps saying "I don't know!" most of the movie, even when things seem turning for better! Music is nice, both actors sing well, but really, the story is silly, no plot, and Jessica plays very badly... one face, mostly a huge smile, that's it. And can we talk about the reaction times?! Embarassing!

I think her best friend (actress Sierra Wooldridge) was the one playing better in the whole movie! Not kidding: she did great! Along with Paul Greene who is always pretty nice and very good!

By the way I am pretty sure this movie could have been like 10 minutes shorter if they had cut all the downtime when Jessica Lowndes just thinks or mumbles!

Last thing... I watched other movies with Jessica but this is the only one where they dressed her like a pin up! I don't know why! No need for that in a family movie...
