I was excited to see a Gabriel Union movie as she brings so much charm and warmth to the characters she plays but I have no idea what I just watched.

There was no chemistry between the leads, felt as friends at most. There was no flow in the movie, it felt like they were trying to check off boxes with requirements in how to put a movie together.

The characters themselves were made into an exaggerated version of whatever personality they were supposed to be.

I can safely assume that they did not do the book justice and I haven't even read it.

Can't recommend this unless you feel like you have some time to waste.

As most Christmas movies, the story was predictable. The acting was rather bad but the storyline kept moving. It was refreshing to watch a story without any typical "misunderstandings" and a whole lot of dueling if he/she should or he/she shouldn't. It was a cute movie, can be watched if there is nothing else interesting to stream.
