Married by Christmas

This story is so bad it is actually offensive, not interesting or engaging at all. Not a Christmas movie, not an uplifting story, just bad. How this type of story gets made into a movie is mind boggling.

Review Date 6/2/2019

I Have Reviewed OVER 500 "Christmas Films and Specials". Please BEWARE Of films and specials with just one review! For instance When "It's a POSITIVE" chances are that the reviewer was involved with the production. "If its Negative" then they may have a grudge against the film for whatever reason. I am fare about these films.

In this film Due to an antiquated clause in her grandmother's will, an ambitious young executive may lose her place at the family company unless she can get married by Christmas.

The acting is very good in this. The story moves at a very nice pace. Motives are very understandable and most of all believable. What I like was the fact that the story took a chances with the ending and so you don't get the predictable ending that these type of films usually give.

Worth watching

Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend.

It's great to see April Browlby on the screen ("Crazy Meg" from "How I Met Your Mother") and Jes Macallan is excellent, carrying the movie.

There is plenty of humor and romantic tension leading to contentious drama, but it is a little bland.

I think the production intended on the hook of "she's gotta get married by Christmas" to land, but it's not exactly reflected in the movie as the main plot point nor an actual character goal.

The movie has some fun in it though so it might be a "decent curl up with someone and give it a go" night.

...but I like quirky. And the cast performs amazingly in this film, with the added benefit of some zippy dialog. But a special shout-out to Jes Macallan. Don't know if I've ever seen her before, but she does a deft turn as a conflicted sister and her acting is superb.

The concept of the movie is super messed up. A family company passes on to the new HUSBAND of the first daughter to get married...not the first married daughter...her HUSBAND. what century is it again?

the only saving grace was Jes Macallan because she's awesome and a few good jokes sprinkled in.
