Angel Falls: A Novel Holiday

The blurb for this movie sounds MUCH better than what the writers managed to turn out.

I could never find any chemistry between the leads, and the Scrooge-like face and attitude of the "author to be helped" was just a turn off for most of the movie. And of course, the plot is really nothing more than a random collection of familiar cliches, prominent among them the male lead's decision between small-town happiness and big city success.

The female lead was never anything but irritating to me. She alternated between self-pity and forced perkiness, and I don't think the writers even meant to write a manic-depressive.

Yuck.

Uninspired writing and performances.

40 Hallmark Christmas shows this year is just too many. Cut it down to 20 (at most) and strive for quality over quantity.

Movie 21 out of my 100 christmas movies before Christmas day challenge with 64 days to go.

I picked this randomly and didn't know anything about it before watching it.

It had a familiar face as the lead actress and I thought the two main stars worked well together.

The movie was nice and sweet. A little flat at times but overall it was okay.

Will I watch it again? Probably not.

7/10 - while I felt as though the guardian angel subplot was completely unnecessary in this context, I throughly enjoyed this Hallmark flick

This is a Hallmark holiday romance between two high school rivals and Angel Falls natives, Hannah and Ryan. The two unite to try to sign a retired author to Hannah's family publishing business during the holidays.

There are actually angels in this holiday romance that can freeze time....just thought I would mention the elephant in the room!

Otherwise these are two very attractive people who have always seemed to like one another, who get a second chance to clear up misunderstandings and get to know one another...and guess what? They are both nice AND they like each other.

Christmas backdrop for this young attractive couple to fall in love. If that is your thing, this is for you...but otherwise a middle of the road romance with no surprises.
