Falling for Christmas

This was a fun and adorable lighthearted Christmas movie. Yes I mostly put it on to see Lindsay make her great comeback and I'm ready for her to be the new queen of Christmas. It put me into the holiday spirit. It's not a deep plot nor was I expecting it to be. Ignore the low ratings and sourpusses and enjoy the glory that is Lindsay Lohan making her comeback. The imagery is great with the backdrop of a snowy ski resort decked out with boughs of holy. It's not that serious so I'm flabbergasted by the super low reviews. I'm really not sure what those people were expecting but it's still a delightful movie to put you in the Christmas spirit.

... because it is as cheesy as they get. This was incredibly predictable from literally the first shot. If you're looking for an original storyline, this is not it. You pretty much know exactly what's going to happen just from the trailer. However, seeing Lindsay Lohan acting again and being happy is a Christmas miracle in and of itself. And Chord Overstreet is looking adorably handsome in this. On top of it, their chemistry is pretty good too. And even though this was brutally cheesy and predicatble it somehow managed to get me to tear up a little.. twice!! So yeah... i probably wont even remember watching this a few days from now it was still a good time. And honestly, I think Lindsey deserves a second chance at her career. I hope it takes off again and she's able to get bigger and better roles in the future. But this was definitely a cute little comeback.

There was a lot of hype about this movie and it could have been very good. Lindsay Lohan was better than most of the actresses in these Christmas romances and the lead actor was also fine but why the ridiculous boyfriend and his odd story line, it did not add anything to the movie and it's absurdity dragged the rest of the movie down, it did not fit with the style the rest of the movie was projecting of a homespun Christmas. I know he was meant to contrast but it just was absurd, not amusing. The little girl gave Lindsay some of her finer scenes. It was not the worst Christmas movie, the production was better than 90% of this type but it was a little overdone too and mainly it lacked something in the script unfortunately. It wasn't that it was predictable, we all know that going in, it just did not entertain or draw you in. So not bad, but not good either, just another average Christmas movie.

I think people are being a bit to harsh on this. Sometimes you have to remember that not all films are set out to be academy award winning powerful blockbusters. Its a campy netflix Christmas film set for people who just want a bit of light hearted entertainment and some Christmas spirit. If you like family fun Christmas movies then you will certainly enjoy this and if you are just a fan of Lindsay Lohan im sure you will enjoy too. Dont get me wrong the plot is pretty generic but as i said before its not a film thats truly meant to be taken with full seriousness so it didnt bother me. It served its purpose to be family friendly fun.

It's so good to see Lindsay Lohan back! I enjoyed this movie a lot. It was festive and heartwarming and to me, that's what Christmas movies are all about! I like the "forget who I am" trope and it worked well in this movie with Chord and Lindsay. They had a good chemistry between them. Olivia Perez was a little shining star as Chord's onscreen daughter-she was so adorable in all of her scenes! I loved seeing Jack Wagner back on my TV again to play a father role in the movie. Definitely recommend watching-Falling for Christmas is a great choice for Christmas movie night for family or date night!
