Always and Forever Christmas

Love Mark always, especially in these Lifetime movies, ten stars. Beth is an added bonus. As others pointed out, the main actress can't act and honestly her character is the worse, not likable at all. It makes new movie unwatchable.

I usually give points for filming winter scenes in actual wintery locations, but this is the second one this year filmed in Winnipeg...but not in winter. WHY bother? At least they looked bundled up against the fake snow in this one.

I love Beth Broderick and Mark Ghanime, but not in this one. Boring? Slow? Stupid? Not sure. As another reviewer noted, not sure what I was watching here. And Lexi Lawson is on Broadway? Really? Then she needs to take an "acting for the camera" course. The few (and odd) rave reviews on here must from people who know her. I agree with majority of reviewers who found her to be amateurish.

Both the director and casting director need a kick in the head for this mess. They cast for diversity, but hire an actress who can't act, and then this is the worst, give the lead guy a redhead white guy for a brother. Were they adopted? Did I miss that part?

I would say don't waste your time, but it's not likely this one will get a repeat showing.

I really hate to say anything negative, and I did love the idea of the storyline, the decorations, as well as Beth Broderick. but the film itself was just ok and not really believable to me. I had a hard time connecting with the lead, who was beautiful, but almost unlikable at times. So sorry to say that, but I have to agree that there was just no chemistry in general.

Very Sugary Story with rather bland acting and a very manufactured feeling.The home and decorations were however Beautiful.Would only watch during the holidays.Never heard of any the actors but was interesting to see something filmed in Winnipeg.

This movie was just blah. No chemistry at all. The only bright spot was "Carol". I have always enjoyed her. If this movie had been played by a completely different cast it could have been a hit. But it seemed like this was everyone's very first acting job and it was if they were just reading a script out loud. Love the story but the actors ruined it. Come on Lifetime... You can do better then that... I've seen it.
