Dashing in December

Thanks Paramount for making a movie with real people and showing that all relationships don't all look the same👍🏽

This is a holiday romance story from the Paramount Network that has some common plot elements with Hallmark and Lifetime holiday movies, so there is crossover appeal for viewers of those networks. Hallmark and Lifetime are focused on women, so a young female is always the main character in their formulaic films and a young man is her love interest. In this film there is a male who is the main character and another male is his love interest.

The script for Dashing in December is above average and the characters talk about real things. In this movie the leads are two males Peter Porte and Juan Pablo Di Pace, they both graduated from drama schools so they know how to act and there is chemistry between them. It has all the usual Hallmark elements such as being very Christmasy, gingerbread, hot cider, hot cocoa and holiday traditions and maintains the cardinal rule that lead characters kiss, but are never seen in bed together. The supporting actors Andie MacDowell and Caroline Harris are excellent. And the music throughout is wonderful.

I hope the Paramount Network gives us more films with gay couples in the near future.

While the movie was predictable, I simply watched. Very entertaining movie. Andie was great. Thanks for giving us a new view of love and family. The whole cast was warm.

A good old-fashioned feel-good Christmas movie with an obvious twist. It is nice, easy to watch, not a second overlong or overdramatic, and just... perfect for a lazy afternoon or evening that you wanna spend indoors either alone or with company.

Yes, it is not 'It's A Wonderful Life' or 'The Christmas Story', but watching it it would make your heart warm. Maybe, in the same way that when you were little you were enjoying the festive season for more than the days off school, the sweets and the gifts: for that special type of magic that almost disappears once you reach puberty.

In any case, if you want to enjoy an evening without over-analyzing. Overthinking and over...something, this is your find. Enjoy!

I really expect to like this film. However, for me the character Wyat is so mean and cruel that it would take a lot of storyline to bring us his redemption. Instead, it happens in about 90 seconds and everyone forgets how cruel he was. Sure, there a poorly laid out back story to his feelings. Yet, they are barely explored. It goes from there
