The Christmas Dance

The Christmas Dance (2021) -

This film overall was a bit preachy and on the moral high ground. It was also a bit wet and drippy. They all seemed considerably holier than thou, except the lead female, Sarah, played by Kristen Vaganos, who was just a bit of a misery. It was also hard to believe that she moved away and hated Christmas because she fell over at a nativity once, which made her character seem very weak indeed.

I think that it would have been better if Sherman Jr. (Miles Fabre) was getting together with Jason, who played the lead male role Carson Nicely, because Sarah seemed like a mardy cow and there was far more chemistry between the two men, so their relationship was much more likely to work. At least the scenes that I saw them in, because when Jason started to sing about God, I really had to give up on it. I actually threw up a little in my mouth. And I really couldn't see how Jason and Sarah were ever supposed to be falling for each other.

It had none of the usual cheer that these films have and it felt like the Christmas activities and nice things to do were all such a chore and for God.

Unscored as unfinished.

I caught this film one evening as I'm a sucker for Christmas films but this was something else. The acting was so-so but the story between the two lovers was ridiculous, he is so self righteous regarding her and her feelings, letting kids down when your brother could die and you have a job that you don't want to get fired from but he makes it all about God and being there - seriously this guy is definitely single for a reason it's his way or no way.

I liked the parents they were what Christmas films should be about and their scenes were good .

Avoid unless there is literally nothing else to watch.

Family is very important aspect of any holiday gathering. This movie draws you in to think about your own interactions with family and friends. Loved it. From beginning to end, you watch the fun and love shown by the characters. While Christmas is the center of the movie, its family that, to me, is portrayed as most important part of the movie. It makes you want to call those that are close to you, whether they are near or far. It also made me realize that time and distance does not take away from you having a close family or friendship. Somethings pick up right where you left them so you never have to start from the begining.

Very well done. One of the best Christmas movies in a while. Yes it has religious tones and yea Christmas is about Jesus people need to get over it and know when they buy celebrate Christmas they are celebrating the birth of Christ. Send me the hate mail!!!

Cute and perfectly cheesy Christmas movie. It actually reflects on the true meaning of Christmas and not the commercial aspects that have taken over. It is refreshing to see a film that isn't afraid to show spirituality and faith as a part of a character. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would recommend.
