फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
Nobody should watch Hallmark films with massively high expectations, their Christmas output particularly. If a Hallmark fan or wanting to see as many Christmas films as possible, expectations would understandably be higher. They are very formulaic with most of them being more of the same narratively and structurally, apart from sporadic attempts at changes of pace. There are a fair share of them though that are surprisingly above average and even good amidst the many average and less ones.
The 2020 output from Hallmark did vary in quality but was not near as bad or wildly uneven as it could have been. None of the films from the batch were really terrible, and a small handful of them were actually very good. 'A Timeless Christmas' is one of the very good ones and benefits from having the most unique premise in a while for a Hallmark Christmas film and the performances. 'A Timeless Christmas' is a fine example of why Hallmark's Christmas output or even Hallmark in general should not be immediately scorned at.
Did find the final third a little too on the rushed side from trying to cram in a little too much with not enough time to explore it properly.
Have often found the music for Hallmark films over-used and in need of a toning down tonally too. There are pleasant moments here and there is some authentic atmosphere, but part of me did think it still could have been used less in placement and been more understated.
On the other hand, a lot is done very well indeed. Erin Cahill is heartfelt and charming, Hallmark do not always score when it comes to having female lead characters that are likeable, but they score here. She has a pleasing and hard to dislike chemistry with Ryan Paevey, equally appealing, and for me their romantic pairing was more rootable than most Hallmark romantic pairings. The supporting cast do more than solidly too.
There are some lovely locations here, complemented very well by the photography, and some pleasant moments in the soundtrack. The script is light-hearted without being too frothy and is not as cornball or as soapy as other Hallmark Christmas films. The story deserves a lot of credit for doing something different, a word usually not associated in the same sentence with Hallmark, and is a lot more creative than most Hallmark films. Concept-wise and its execution 'A Timeless Christmas' is to me in the top 5 of the most creative when it comes to Hallmark Christmas films, and is the most unique. It is not as formulaic and there is less of the Hallmark cliches. The story is also very charming and heart-warming and the time travel element is not wasted, avoiding convolution too.
Concluding, surprisingly very good which was not expected. 8/10.

This was a beautiful Christmas film by Hallmark. The premise is about a wealthy business man who disappears a week before Christmas one hundred and fifty years ago and wakes up at his desk in contemporary times. His home has been turned in to a museum, his factory torn down, his fiancé married having married his rival who became great benefactors to the town, and his maid-Rosie's great granddaughter running the museum that is his house offering tours.
Rosie's granddaughter, Megan, initially doesn't believe that he is who he says he is...although the resemblance to the painted portrait in the front hall is striking. Could he be Charles Whitley? Megan actually did her college thesis on Charles Whitley, so no one knows more about him than her. When she notices the horseshoe shaped scar on his hand and Charles is able to direct her to a secret compartment under the floorboards...Megan becomes a believer. Megan decides to help Charles get back to his time.
Together they piece together the events of his last night, he was repairing a Christmas clock for his fiancé and he winds it on the second full moon in December, called the Christmas moon. Megan finds the clock and they are ready for the next Christmas moon. Meanwhile, Megan shares with Charles all of the Christmas traditions that he was always to busy to participate in...and learns that he was afraid to get close to anyone afraid he might loose them. During the process Charles learns what he has been missing and starts to fall in love with Megan. Will he return to his time in the end?
Will Megan leave the museum and become a history professor at the local college?
Ryan Paevey was wonderful in this film...as was Erin Cahill playing our two leads. They had wonderful chemistry and really made these characters come to life. It was a magical story, just what Christmas is all about.
I loved the emphasis on old fashioned manners...something really lacking in today's day and age. It just went to show how good manners are always appreciated and never go out of style!
Romantic, magical and filled with love and Christmas. Loved the film and think that if you are a fan of Hallmark that you will love it too.

A different story for the Hallmark universe. The directing was nearly flawless.... The " family" feel of the cast as it seamlessly blended to tell a story both imagined and real. Paevey is lead and as should be, steals it , makes it believable with Cahill's support. Excellent, subtle, and totally interactive chemistry-between the two and the cast, and director himself make this movie real. Loved every bit of it... please more of this total package.
Time travelling and Christmas is a win win but add both these two main leads and a great supporting cast and you have a really good movie. I will watch it again
This was the best Hallmark Christmas movie this year so far! It was enjoyable watching this movie with great casting, acting, writing, makeup, costumes/wardrobe, location/scenery, production and direction. I feel like they had to move through the events too fast in the last 30 minutes or so. This movie should've been a two-parter primiering on Saturday and Sunday night this weekend. Applause to Hallmark :)

- ट्रिवियाRudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1948) is on the television when Charles turns it on.
- गूफ़A reference is made to a "Christmas moon" being the second full moon in December. This is supposed to occur on Christmas eve. Since the time between full moons is 29.5 days, for it to occur on December 24 is impossible. A second full moon can only occur on either the 30th or 31st in December. This would also make it impossible for December 18th to be a Christmas Moon (2nd full moon in the month of December).
