Wanted to hate this movie as I'm not a fan of the formula plot. However, this one has just enough naughty in it to make it fun. The roommate and her shenanigans were like real life. I did end up really liking it but was devastated to learn that Santa passed after making this movie. He was the best part of it for me because I still believe in him!
I saw this mess on ION TV yesterday while feeding my invalid mother her Christmas lunch. I don't believe how many people are singing the praises of this clumsy, awkward, deeply-cheesy-and-not-in-a-good-way awfulness.
I've watched a lot of Christmas movies over the years, and this is one of the worst I've seen.

Becky gets hired by her roommate's dad to evict coffee shop owner Jake but she's falling for him. The confrontation over the secret occurs earlier than most movies, a little over half way. Up until then the story is pretty tame. The only exception I'll get to. After the confrontation things go a little crazy. The ending makes no sense in so many ways.
The Santa who rings his bell outside the coffee shop thinks he is the real thing. And he knows a lot of things about people that he should have no way of knowing and this from early in the movie.
Chemistry between the leads? Maybe. Problem is they didn't do that much together.

A New Lease on Christmas is another really unique take on an age-old format.
The actor who played Santa provided a brand-new take on the cinematic character. He grows on you throughout the movie.
There are very real relationships in the film, by realistic actors.
Everything was nicely wrapped up by director Scott, who has yet to disappoint to anyone who loves movies.
A new holiday staple!

The premise of this movie has potential, which is why I decided to watch it. But this is the worst thing I've watched on TV. HONEST question? Was this a high school project that got greenlit? The acting and writing is HORRENDOUS!!!! I'm convinced the people who are singing this movie's praises are relatives and friends of the so-called actors. So-called actors because there is no way these people are making a decent living doing what they're doing. I sincerely hope they have day jobs that sustain their livelihoods because acting "ain't" it for them. Absolutely horrible movie. HORRIBLE!!!!! But, if you need a good laugh or background white noise, this is the movie for you.
