Married by Christmas

The concept of the movie is super messed up. A family company passes on to the new HUSBAND of the first daughter to get married...not the first married daughter...her HUSBAND. what century is it again?

the only saving grace was Jes Macallan because she's awesome and a few good jokes sprinkled in.

Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend.

It's great to see April Browlby on the screen ("Crazy Meg" from "How I Met Your Mother") and Jes Macallan is excellent, carrying the movie.

There is plenty of humor and romantic tension leading to contentious drama, but it is a little bland.

I think the production intended on the hook of "she's gotta get married by Christmas" to land, but it's not exactly reflected in the movie as the main plot point nor an actual character goal.

The movie has some fun in it though so it might be a "decent curl up with someone and give it a go" night.

This movie started out so well .. I had high hopes but it just didn't make sense by the end!! I'm giving this 5 stars because it had great acting, I loved the main characters .. I just feel like the script needs a bit of tweaking... Because this just didn't feel like the feel-good-movies I'm used to .. and just when I thought I discovered another TV network to look forward to its movies 🎥

I really liked the hero and heroine, they had great chemistry. Loved the sisters relationship, because it came off so real.

I liked the film, I just wish it was better. But maybe that's just me. Take a chance on this movie, you might like it.

So, a woman is trying to win over her stolen birthright by getting married. Confusion of business in the place of love. What we get is essentially a variation on "A Christmas Carol," a person who realizes that heart is more important than profit, except it takes her an exceptionally long time to learn her lesson.

As her sister puts it, Carrie is smart and yet so stupid. She fails to understand anyone on a personal level. In my opinion she does not really redeem herself in this movie. In fact I felt that no one learned much of anything.

Surprisingly, this movie was very well executed. The performances, script, and photography were quite convincing. Sadly it was lacked structure and originality.

...but I like quirky. And the cast performs amazingly in this film, with the added benefit of some zippy dialog. But a special shout-out to Jes Macallan. Don't know if I've ever seen her before, but she does a deft turn as a conflicted sister and her acting is superb.
