Great feel good movie

This is a bit of a Hallmark type feel good movie, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I enjoyed the lack of sex and violence that is in so many of the movies today. This was just a good heart warming movie.

Great feel good story

I really enjoyed this movie. Well acted, with characters who were believable and sincere. The story was based on a best selling book, and had a more interesting plot than most recent Christmas movies. While the ending was predictable, it was so heartfelt and sweet, I had tears in my eyes.

Very touching without being Hallmark sappy

Well done, well cast and well acted, without being unrealistically Hallmark corny. I would have done a few minor tweaks (I understand why Hope was eager to be accepted, they're a wonderful family; but why would they be so quick to invite in a total stranger?). I would have changed the first jar interviewee (the teacher), and done something about the annoyingly cliche best friend. But I gave it an 8, which tells you how much I liked it, and highly recommend it. Be sure to have the tissues ready.

Also, I had no idea that Columbus looked so much like Canada. I'm going out right now and find every shooting location. ;-)

Trivia
Jason Wright: the author of the source novel, as one of the people delivering a Christmas jar to the Maxwells.

Goofs
In the skating scene, whenever you see Hope on the ice, she looks very much like a beginner. She skates like someone who has had very little experience on the ice. But then Ian asks her to show him some tricks since she has skated her entire life. She takes off and does jumps and turns, and moves extremely quickly as she skates upright like a professional. When Hope comes back to Ian, she has once again become the awkwardly moving beginner.

Quotes
Hope Jensen: [in she and Brandi negotiating with the shop owner on the purchase of an antique table] And what about all the damage?
Owner: Oh... ladies, what do you think you're going to look like in two hundred years.
