Time for Me to Come Home for Christmas

A nice Hallmark road movie style Christmas film, with Josh Henderson and Megan Park being some pleasing newer faces among the Hallmark ranks.

I thought this was good fun, it was warm and the storyline held up.

For those getting bogged down by accents I'd say just sit back and enjoy this easy-going romantic comedy for what it does well instead.

I enjoyed this even though it's an over-used plot. I liked the chemistry between the actors and the subplots are heartwarming and/or fun. I didn't like the song at the end at all, but it's not bad enough to sink the movie.

There was nothing that particularly stood out in this movie, although I was impressed with Megan Park whom I've never noticed before. I hope we get to see more of her in the future. She plays a sweet, gentle and mostly humble young woman who just stumbles into meeting a famous country singer.

As in movies I like most, Park and Josh Henderson spend a lot of screen time together and have a quiet chemistry.

The movie throws in a few short stanzas of Christmas songs here and there, but with one longer performance of an original song.

The story is nothing more than two people making there way across country fighting detours to get home for Christmas where they happen to live in the same area.

If you don't mind the terrible fake southern accents, bad lip sink and awkwardness you might enjoy this movie. I found it mediocre at best and I am a fan of most of the Hallmark cliche Christmas Movies.

6/10 - nothing special in this by-the-book holiday flick
