Un parfum de Noël

Not even reputable actors like Nicholas Farrell can save a really bad script. Dan Jeannotte is ok, Brooke Burfitt is terrible with her bad American accent. The script must have been written over a party weekend using a formulaic story. There are other things to watch.

I agree with many of the other reviews, but what I found surprising was the particularly low production quality even for this type of movie. Wardrobe was terrible several times, particularly for Blair -- I agree that the blue ball gown was unforgivable in fit and mock skin color, just distractingly awful. The sound was consistently really, really bad. The lighting was not great most of the time and poorly done in a few spots. The filming was shaky and pretty terrible at times. There's one point that snow was added to bushes in postproduction and it looks like CGI from decades ago. I agree that the foam snow at the end was just atrocious.

I mean, they even failed at making Glamis Castle look good, particularly the interiors. And that's the only reason I'd kept watching.

With a few tweaks, this could have been on par with movies of its kind. I'm just baffled at how they could reach this low bar for production.

One of the worst, for sure. The Scottish accents were abysmal. Not really a Christmas movie. Find something else.

Movie is what's to be expected from a christmas tv-film. Enjoyable enough, but not great. Cliché story... But foam snow in the last scene!? Why????

Although I knew that I wouldn't like this film within the first five minutes, I gave it ten minutes and still wasn't impressed. Dan Jeannotte is very cute as the Earl, but even he could not keep me watching.

The fact that this one has Caprice in it was a red flag right from the start. Far too silly and over the top.

Unrated, as unfinished.
