L'Héritage de Noël

This is, of course, "only" a Hallmark Channel Christmas movie - one among many.

But it's also one of the most charming ones I've seen. Jill Wagner is a revelation, and completely engaging as Hannah Harper, a New York executive sent to the town of Cookie Jar to close the sale of Aunt Sally's Christmas Cookie company to her large conglomerate. She must negotiate with the handsome nephew of the original owner, and sparks fly - it's a Hallmark movie, duh.

It will take oodles of cookies, lots of love, and a little bit of last-minute Christmas magic, but everything will be all right in the end.

A very sweet, tasty treat for Christmas 2016.

I have many "stones" against this film. flaws, predactibility, unrealism. but the poor of it has a small virtue - the name of town. and the spirit of family of a small community. and the idea of recipe for the cookies of aunt Sally. so, it works. with the well known love story and the end who you expect be different - sure, in this case is real forced, fake, bizarre -. but who coould resist to... Cookies Jar ? and, sure, twoo good looking lead actors, P. Lynn Johnson remembering Eve Marie Saints and the flavor of cookies.

I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 400 (C H R I S T M A S ) MOVIES AND SPECIALS.

BEWARE OF BOGUS REVIEWS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. NOW I HAVE NO AGENDA! I AM HONEST! I REVIEW MOVIES & SPECIALS AS A WAY TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT I HAVE SEEN!

Aunt Sally's Christmas Cookie Company is sold to a large conglomerate and executive Hannah (Wagner) must seal the deal and shut down the factory, which is the small town of Cookie Jar's lifeblood. What was supposed to be a simple assignment for Hannah becomes complicated when she meets Jake (Brown), the factory owner who's determined to keep the factory in town. Despite not being a fan of the holiday, the Christmas spirit in this small town is infectious and she gets swept up in the joy of the season

This film is very easy to enjoy. The location work in the film is well done. My favorite part of any Christmas movie is to see how they decorate the sets. This is one of the best visual designed films that I have seen this year.

AS for the film? Well its good. You know how it will end. I am more than happy to say that it is "One of the better films" on the Hallmark Channels.

Good acting, but Same old tired plot. Hallmark must have one writer. Something always needs saved, theres always a fiance who is wrong for the main character. They always make them unlikable so it's easy to see how the woman or man betrays them for another person. Always a charming child involved. And the woman always finds christmas spirit and love and sacrifice at the end. Problem is....these two actors, although fine actors had zero chemistry....zero. the man was morose and downbeat the whole movie. I felt nothing for them. Bland movie, bland rating.

This is a nice little Christmas movie! I like cookies, and I love Christmas! It's the typical big city vs small town story, but it's definitely worth the watch. The small town charm will win your over and make you want to be a part of it...especially at Christmas!!!
