Note de ukoutlaw-92465
The downlow:
The dialogue sucks.
The acting sucks.
The editing sucks.
The plot HAD potential.
I thought "12 Games of Christmas" would be a fun seasonal version of "Jumanji". Nope. It turns out it's a lame parody of every white-charactered Christmas movie ever produced by Hallmark or Lifetime, but with GFAM, you get a sledgehammer message to boot. Faith, prayers, family, yada yada. If the message has to be repeated VOCALLY every few minutes, your writers and actors aren't doing their jobs. (see my review of "A Christmas For the Ages")
The characters repeat each other's dialogue, GIGGLE almost constantly in each situation, and the lead actress repeats her very own moronic line, "gosh, does this game have a card???" SPOILER ALERT! All 12 games have cards!!!
The editing left huge amounts of dead air within shots, compared to competent editing.
The plot had great potential, but fell before the starting gate.
I KNOW GFAM can do better. Just look at this year's "'Twas the Text Before Christmas" and "A Paris Christmas Waltz". Engaging stories, competent acting, good plots.
I'd give this stinkeroo 0 stars if possible. And I agree with another reviewer who wrote, GFAM needs to shoot for QUALITY, NOT QUANTITY!

Wow! I never thought I'd see a Hallmark movie that I felt deserved top marks. Well, "A Biltmore Christmas" is the one, and so I have rated it 10/10.
It follows Lucy, a screen writer tasked with rewriting the script for a remake of a beloved classic Christmas movie from 1947. I'm screaming already! 😱 Lucy is unenthused with this assignment, so her boss pushes her into a trip to the Biltmore House in Asheville, NC, where the original movie was filmed, to get some inspiration for the rewrite.
After she tours the house, some unbelievable things begin to happen, and the plot takes some neat twists and turns. And that's as far as I'm taking you down that road! I HATE SPOILERS!
Ms. Lenz and her co-star Kristoffer Polaha have terrific chemistry together. To be honest, each of them always exudes good chemistry no matter who they're starring with.
Suspend your disbelief and just go with it!
*I grew up in NC, so I may be biased, but Biltmore House, gardens, grounds, and winery are fantastic to tour, especially for Christmas. If you do it right, it's an all-day affair. 👍*
