Season's Greetings

Season's greetings truly portrays how feelings and heart felt messages count even in today's digital material world. Although digital apps are widely used today to connect, and convey the same message, a greeting card is just tangible. It conveys the talent, emotion, passion and art of an artist which can be touched and felt. The Holiday card made by Will Harrington for his grandfather as a kid reminds me of the cards my 5 year old daughter makes for me. I have also started saving her cards now in my keepsakes. She'll feel so grateful for this when she grows up.

There are some bad Christmas movies out here, but this isn't one of them. Some of you need to "Get Over Yourselves."

I started watching this several times, then when I finally did see the entire movie, I was amazed I had not finished it before. Unlike the typical Hallmark formula, this one takes place over a year. There is no 3 day romance and engagement, it is more like what happens in real life versus the movies. The biggest - and BEST - difference was the humour in it. It honestly was one of the funniest Hallmark's ever, while keeping a touching love story as part too.

The lead characters really made the movie, but I will say at first Casey Manderson did not appeal to me, it did not take long for this to change. Laura Bell Bundy and Kaylan Miles as her friend, were both hilarious.

There are pieces that did not make sense, like the sister just popping in the story and then never seen again at the end, and the mean corporate lady who was not in the story enough to really be concerned about her. But the story and ending are worth pushing through the first ten minutes.

An OK if predictable daytime TV film. Unfortunately the lead actress is way too annoying. She has an annoying voice, she pulls ridiculous expressions and has an inane grin. I wonder if she was told to over-do the character, someone really needed to tell her to tone it down.

There's a scene when she falls from a chair after being approached from behind - oh dear, if there was an award for the most fake, and overworked scene. Then she's 'drunk' on valentine's night, if I thought she couldn't be mor annoying.................

Predictable and amusing in some parts, the scenes she isn't in!

The good thing is that the leads have good chemistry. I love it
