Christmas Harmony

I absolutely loved this movie. It was the best movie in 2018. Kelley Jakle has the voice of an angel. Absolutely loved Adam Mayfield too. I want to see a sequel. What's next for Harmony and Luke.

If you can make it through the first 45" of whining, you should be ok. It does get revisited towards the end, but resolves shortly. The adult relationship has some merit, and the boy is wonderful. A truly despicable character tends to be almost clownlike, the father seems emotionless, fake tears and all. Sally Struthers is absolutely perfect in her part. The quotas are all met, of course. Where would we be without the quotas? I'm not sure why I continued down this massively flawed movie, but I did to the finish. When there is a character as unlikeable as the heroine, it is masterful to like her at the end.

As far as the formula goes, nothing new here. I do like the leads, they have good chemistry. The songs are so good though. I'm not usually a fan of movies with any kind of singing but wow these songs (and singers) are so good that I've been listening to them on repeat (youtube, Amazon Prime) Cathedral Heart has definitely captured my heart :-)

A predictable Christmas show/love story but pleasantly entertained by the cast and storyline. LOVE the songs and currently searching for a soundtrack to download. Of all the Hallmark and Lifetime Xmas movies out this season, this is our favorite.

There are many feel good Christmas movies that appear only around that time of year, and this is one of them. It does have problems, if you're looking at it from a potential academy award winner. Look past that and just watch it as something to make you happy at Christmas and you might enjoy it.
