Um Natal em Família Diferente

I often put on Hallmark Christmas movies to get away from stress and real angst in the world. However, this well-acted movie provided real feelings and I actually cried- not cool, Hallmark! 😂 Very likable characters and a good storyline!

AND I was so worried how it'll all was going to come out and thinking how much pressure was put on her and they made it a beautiful ending!!! Love!!!

It was a fun and warming christmas tale. Aimee is a knock-out and the family opened up to her quickly. Who wouldn't. The story took a twist and am not sure i would want to do business with that dna company. You have got to root for the lead actress.

A fresh story and a loving family are the canvas for a charming Christmas picture. There may be some minor inconsistencies , sure, but the characters feel real, effortlessly nice and loving. Andrew Walker seems relaxed and warm , as in his best roles. The real magic, though, comes from Aimee Teegarden. The script is mostly about her character and she delivers. Like a previous reviewer, I loved her in "Once upon a Christmas miracle" of a few years back. She is again wonderfully convincing in portraying a sweet vulnerable young woman and provides the rich emotions a good Christmas story intends to offer. It is great to watch a movie that leaves you feeling good inside.

Starting with the script which is better than average and a very good cast starting with the mainstay James Tupper and adding in Kendall Cross, Aimee Teegarden and Andrew Walker, they made it work. James Tupper's performance was very natural and believable, which contributed to the believability of the story.

It could have been another "near miss" Hallmark movie, but this one worked. The child actors were also good. Kudos to the cast.

For someone so young, Aimee Teegarden has a lot of experience in television and film, so it didn't surprise me to see her succeed in this installment for Hallmark. She seems to specialize in characters that are placed in very unlikely situations that require a lot of emotions in need of reconciliation. The trailers pretty much give away the story, but it's an enjoyable ride, nevertheless, and one worth watching more than once. I think a successful Hallmark movie is one with characters worth caring about, and which makes the viewer feel better for having watched; everyone has an opinion that matters to them, but for me, this is a winner.
