Les Noëls de ma vie

I really wanted to love this movie. The plot sounded like it'd be a refreshing twist to the original Dickens' story. But Toni Braxton is terrible in this movie. I'm a fan of her as a singer, but honestly after this movie, I'll avoid any other movies that she acts in. Instead of a feel good Christmas movie, I was just annoyed and irritated that I wasted my time watching this.

This was a really great movie. I enjoyed Toni acting greatly. How she executed her lines along with her facial and body expressions made it perfect. You can tell that she truly took her time to learn her lines as well as place herself into the character. There were moments that were predictable as it is an adaptation but other than that it was great. And it is truly a family film which makes it even better.

Towanda character was good as well.

Overall, Great job Living Legend Toni Braxton.

I felt it delivered on point to the original. Gloria Reuben was a standout. The unbelievable part for me was the love story. Generally the acting was on par for a Christmas story. The characters were likeable. One scene that really stands out for me is when Toni Braxton locks herself in the bathroom - she looks so small.

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.

This is another "Christmas Carol" ripoff that has no charm or warmth to anything.

Toni Braxton is very wooden here. The dialog delivery is very painful to the ear. The rest of the cast does what it can with such a terrible screenplay. What is tired about this version is that it has a twist here and there but you how it will end.

I would like to see a version where things turn out different. That would be a true "Christmas Miracle"
