Notre conte de Noël

The plot was a good one, and if I say the background music was ok, then there clearly is a problem if I noticed that and nothing else.

The two leads were as wooden as a couple of planks. They were just reciting the awful dialogue that the scriptwriters (?) gave them, like newsreaders reading autocues. No chemistry, no acting, nothing. Perhaps getting amateurs from the local drama group would have worked better, but more was expected from a couple of 'professionals'.

Casting director, script writers need to learn a lesson from this - a) make sure the right actor/actress will have sufficient chemistry with each other, and b) don't write dialogue that would make a 10 year old cringe.

A crafty Christmas Romance had a nice mystery regarding the owner of the coin. However, the romance was weak, as the main couple had zero chemistry.

How does this kind of mis casting take place? The lead woman is a pretty actress who is it was not for a huge nose would be beautiful, is cast in a romantic relationship with a man who is 26 years older than her. The wife and I noticed the age difference immediately. I checked both of them.. I consulted IMDb and found out she was born in 87 and he was born in 61. also there's a huge looks difference, she is way above him in the looks Department.. there is no way their relationship was believable ....The srory was not bad, it was different. The acting was good, but the pairing of a younger pretty woman with a bland looking man old enough to be her father was absurd.

I take on board everything reviewers have said so far about this film - & they're pretty correct. It's a bit amateurish, the leads don't have that spark together , the dialogue's pretty wooden & the age difference between the 2 leads doesn't feel right. However, for me, the naïve storytelling & enthusiastic acting , coupled with Brad's nice-guy -always-cheerful approach didn't make the film bomb. Overall it's a so-so rating for a so-so film and a win for the nice good guys out there !

Boring, predictable and cheesy a Christmas movie It's not the best Christmas movie but it's not the worst. Storyline is so so, kind of drags on. I agree with some of the other reviews - the age difference between the leads is distracting.
