Estrada para o Natal

8.0 stars.

Another good one! My initial feeling as the credits roll is there should have been a sequel. This story, the actors, the whole production demanded another installment, alas it didn't happen and I'm sad about that.

'Road to Christmas' is comprised of an abundance of goodness all in one package. Two driven and very professional young TV producers are assigned to travel the country to create a Christmas TV special, and they have one week. Both are very driven individuals and precise with their work, but also opinionated - two peas in a pod. At first they butt heads, but per usual Hallmark, they will end up together.

There is nothing particularly amazing about this movie except that all the actors gel and are so likable. The comradery oozes off the screen. I can't imagine any story would fail with this combination of actors performing it together. They could have read out of the phone book and entertained our butts off. Where is the sequel? Why no sequel?

This film really brings you to the holiday spirit it was cute for the girl to reunite the three sons and has a great message

I really liked this movie. It was different from the usual. Chad Michael Murray was perfect for Danny. He took me back to the beginning of a real relationship. His brothers were great, too. I really liked the whole package!

Maggie (Jessy Schram) is producer for a cooking Christmas special by Julie Wise. She is forced by the network to work with a former producer, one of Julie's son (Chad Michael Murray) and record Christmas segments for the show all across the country, during which she gets to know Danny and makes it her mission to reunite all three siblings.

It was a pretty good one! Both leads were great, Jessy is becoming one of my favorites HM ladies, amazing storyline, good chemistry and a road trip! What else can you ask for? It contains only a few of the typical cliches we know.

It shows us what Christmas and that time of the year should be: about being next to your loved ones. Definitely watch this one.

7/10 - fun Hallmark movie that helped get me into the holiday spirit
