Mon héroïne de Noël

Weak characters, profoundly dumb and weaker Tom. Overacting, unrealistic and terrible script.

Just a flop however you see it.

What a pity, as there could have been a decent and happy Christmas story. This was just dumb and silly. Directors should head for the nearest cliff....

...but it's down there. It follows the usual formula: guy/girl meets girl/guy, one of them has an attachment to someone else who won't let the other one go, overbearing relative/friend, relative/friend encourages the girl/guy to go after their true love, there's a big misunderstanding and guy/girl storms off from girl/guy, then they finally come together and get engaged after a ridiculously short amount of time. That's ok, but it's how that whole thing is done that matters. In this case, it was a dud. The father/grandfather is far too overbearing and neither his daughter or his ex-son-in-law will stand up to him. The guy (ex-son-in-law who meets firefighter woman) not only lets his father-in-law walk all over him, but also his ex. The Evil Ex uses the kid as a lever to get him to do what she wants. Will he ever push back? Meanwhile, the kid suffers from Mom's manipulations and Grandpa's drill sergeant like orders, and seeks out the only person who can care about her without paying a consequence: the firefighter woman. Will the ex and the grandpa find their hearts and everyone live happily ever after? Gee, I really don't know!

There are some serious problems:

• That's not the standard protocol for how firefighters go in to rescue people.
• It's ridiculous to think that that's how chimneys are constructed, especially in luxury houses.
• The product placement of the engagement ring, being sure to highlight and linger on the open ring box so the camera can center on the brand name several times, is tacky, tacky, tacky and cheapens the movie.

Unless you HAVE to watch every Christmas romance movie, give this one a pass and go watch Killer Klowns From Outer Space. The acting is better and at least you can get some real laughs.

What a horrible Christmas movie. In the end all the characters realized they've been massive arseholes. But the viewers had to suffer through all their awfulness for two hours to get there. This is a four alarm alert - stay away, stay far away from this movie. Minus a further half star for gratuitous Neil Lane and Kay Jewelers product placement. HORRIBLE!

I do love a Christmas movie - full of cheese! However this one was just horrid. They were a horrible bunch of people. The grandfather was foul. The dad didn't have any balls to stand up and say 'she's my kid, sod off!' The mother was HORRID! Who would refuse to give their daughter a Christmas present on Christmas morning from her dad??

Review Date 6/15/2019

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.

A woman's relationship with a former Olympian is tested during the holiday season when her beau's ex attempts to feign a rekindled romance with him in order to fuel the sales of her relationship-advice book.

It was hard for me to watch this film because I kept thinking Marcus Rosner looks like one of Donald Trumps sons or Adam Scott. The film however suffers because the writing is very inconsistent. Characters are not consistent and at times you are left scratching your head.
