Signed, Sealed, Delivered for Christmas

This is a nice Christmas story with a bit of heartache but with a lot more heart. There is a little girl who writes to God to help her mother who is in the hospital. The team members of the Lost Letters comprised of team leader Oliver (Eric Mabius), Shane (Kristin Booth), Rita (Yan-Kay Crystal Lowe), and Norman (Geoff Gustafson) take the weathered and worn letter addressed to God and so they start their magic and commence finding this little girl who wrote this mystery letter asking for God's intervention.

While in the process of finding who the little girl is and more importantly where this little girl is, the team is feeling in the Christmas spirit except for Shane. All four members have some personal feelings around Christmas that they eventually share with each other, and they are touching and heartfelt stories, especially Oliver's childhood Christmas story.

If you believe in the magic of Christmas, and the spirit of (any) religion, than you will most likely enjoy this feature film in the Signed, Sealed and Delivery series. I give it a 7 out of 10 IMDB rating.

My wife and I saw this program when it was first aired on Hallmark a few days ago (Nov 2014). We had watched all the previous episodes of Signed, Sealed and Delivered, and had enjoyed them for their story lines as well as for the individual characters who are nicely developed and who also form an effective ensemble.

This Christmas special is almost breathtaking. I'd love to know more about the writer(s) involved and how the director and actors viewed the project also. Particularly good is how this Christmas episode provides enough background and details about the characters so that a first-time watcher of the series is not lost or bewildered.

I plan to add to this review after I watch the program again (on DVR). The actors in this series and the guest stars all deserve recognition for their work.

Right now I can say this beautifully filmed and edited show offers a lovely composition of interesting characters, dynamic and subtle relationship issues, tension and pathos, familiar cinematic devices that older viewers will recognize and all can appreciate ... and ... some clear, eloquent expressions of doubts about Christmas and then a stirring vision of the most basic true meaning of the Christmas message.

Whether the viewer is secular, Christian, or of another worldview, the overall presentation is at once intriguing, uplifting and satisfying. This two-hour program showcases the best of what the Hallmark Channel aims to offer viewers.

First off, this series is so strong in connection and love. This one hits just a little more.straight to the heart! I love that it talks straight about Jesus! It's so sweet and caring. I actually cried watching this one. Perfect casting!

Absolutely marvelous on so many levels. Traditional family values. The interwoekinksnof the narrative was consistently wholesome. The narrative was full of great relationships. We were very attentive to the plot line the whole way. And the narrative of the nativity was also included. Such a precious gem of a movie. More of this, please!!

For some odd reason I cannot post this unless I say more. I need to add 188 more characters. I'm satisfied with what I have said. Take my word for it. This is a delightful narrative. So glad we watched it. We plan to watch the whole series. I applaud the work of the writing team. Nicely done.

We have just watched this program for the first time and could not be more pleased. The entire production is first class, as is the message. It is not possible for any warm-blooded being to not be moved by the spiritual encouragement which is at the heart of this story. We look forward to more SS&D movies. These have proven to be interesting, intelligent and reliably family-friendly entertainment.
