Sweet single dad hires professional organizer to step in and help at Christmas. He's the brains behind a family toy store and she is the organizer. The beauty of this film is that his motivation is really in the right place, he prioritizes his kids and just needs a little help not dropping the ball. Catherine Bell and Eric Close have great on screen chemistry, and the kids and brother fill in the heart warming cast...with a little help from her best friend. Christmas cookies, poinsettias, and a discussion about the bright star Sirius...make this a Hallmark film you should see.
I watch almost all of the Hallmark Christmas movies but this couple really have no chemistry on screen at all.
The kids are super cute in the movie, plus love that they are toy-makers.
This movie is dated 2017 ... so cannot understand why everyone is in 1990s fashion. Oh well, there is plenty of real snow here, indicating it wasn't knocked off in an LA back lot. Busy Dad is overtaken by work pressure ( welcome to real life for 95% of us) so hires a "life balancer/coach" like you do... From there we get a series of small challenges and conflicts none of which constitute a gripping tale.Catherine Bell is the coach and romance. Catherine has an enormous facial philtrum, which is both intriguing and distracting. In addition Bell is a renouned active lesbian in real life and the lack of actual romantic sympatico was discernable, i'm afraid. There has to be some spark, however pretend that is - and i don't believe Bell actually "turned up" for her performance, even though it was passable. Storyline is tolerable , camerwork, editing, script are all professional. A fair film, even if it was low key for 90% of the time. No "zing" though
Undemanding, predictable snooze-fest with two leads with zero-chemistry.
If a man has to hire a professional organiser in order to secure a client contract perhaps it's time he found a new career/day job/business etc.

I Have Reviewed OVER 500 "Christmas Films and Specials". Please BEWARE Of films and specials with just one review! For instance When "It's a POSITIVE" chances are that the reviewer was involved with the production. "If its Negative" then they may have a grudge against the film for whatever reason. I am fare about these films.
In this film
Lydia, a successful professional organizer, is constantly trying to grow her business, but even her ambition takes a back seat to love when she meets Robert, a frazzled widower with two young children who happens to be a toy inventor, who must come up in 12 days a new toy that will save his company. However both Lydia & Robert bring out the best in each other. You know how this film will end but the films charming leads make you forget.
