Les Mystérieuses Cartes de Noël

Someone gave a review that they didn't know where the dog disappeared to. Evidently, they didn't watch to the end of the movie. I love this movie it show heart, compassion, and not your usual holiday movie. The only reason I give this an 8 was because it wasn't like a Martin Scorsese movie or a huge masterpiece. However, it is truly enjoyable with just the right amount of each component. There was a few discrepancies but they weren't really too obvious.

This story is convoluted and implausible. The acting is appallingly bad- especially the lead actress, who has some kind of weird accent that's explained away by her having been sent to school in England. She confuses petulant rudeness with hard nosed interviewing and is utterly clueless for a supposedly brilliant investigative journalist. The writers clearly know nothing about newspapers, law enforcement, the law or logic because the story is lacking in credibility and clunky dialogue.

The lead male is slightly better at acting, but the attempts to channel Sherlock Holmes observational brilliance is cringe worthy and utterly implausible.

The older guy they hunt has a most irritating speech impediment - probably caused by dentures that don't fit well.

The dog is cute, but the writers are so lazy they have a cocker spaniel (hair, not fur) causing someone to have an allergic reaction that would only happen in real life if the person had buried his face into the dog's body. I know this because I am allergic to fur dogs and sneeze around them, but my own cocker spaniel and other hair dogs (the ones that need to go to the groomer frequently) do not bothered at all.

Lazy writing, clunky acting, poor direction.

Did I miss something?? The hero (and sometimes, the heroine) carries small dog, Murray I think, with him everywhere for maybe 45 minutes of the film. Then the 2 humans leave the bed and breakfast to pursue leads. The night before, the guy slept in car, dog stayed with her due to suspicious landlord and apparent break-in. But when they leave, no mention of dog he always keeps with him. They left little Murray with a dwindling bag of dry dog food in the place that had been broken into? Did Murray demand a bigger salary? Did actors, producer, director, even dog's real owner, forget the little guy? But whew. At the 'tail' end, they're all together celebrating Christmas. Murray is quietly sitting on the sofa. Did he hitchhike back?? We just don't know. Signed, Friend of Murray

Just watched this movie ; I had to write review and warn others. Worst TV movie I've ever seen and I've seen a lot of TV movies in 60 years! This girl can NOT act ! Truly a waste of film.

Horrible! Don't waste your time ! Weak story but plausible. Where did this actress come from? Really bad!

Who thought this movie was good? I mean, Really? I doubt it will ever replay on TV! Maybe she needed to fulfill contract or something. No emotion whatsoever . A score of 1 is way too much. It was like a bad dream. Can't believe they would produce this. Be warned! Even the ending was bad!

Where did Murray the dog go ?? Best part of the movie . He had a small bag of product placement dog food and no water dish . Poor Murray .He was adorable 🐾🐾🐾🐾 the rest of the movie ...meh
