Deck the Heart

Oh My Goodnrss... Inappropriate music for the location.

Way too much dead space where so many dialogie snippets could have been featured..

Sudden DEATH ENDING..no classy closure...

Storyline is great..

Editing was bad, stilted dialogue; lighting off many places, not to mention acting varied to sometimes okay to horrible. Cute story but ran too slowly; some scenes last too long. 4 stars for good intentions and cute leads.

This movie is mediocre at best. It is paved with good intentions. What caused me to actually write a review was the music. Song after song was an assault on my ears. I thought it was just the first song and then the second one arrived sung by a different artist and lo and behold the third one arrived like a strike-out. I saw this on YouTube listed as a Hallmark movie, but it didn't meet the standard by a long shot. But, as I said, the intentions were there. But the script was wooden, the actors didn't have a chance to shine. I don't know if they would or not, but it was dead in the water.

Btw, with the earlier review, the author mentioned that girls don't get Bar Mitzvah'ed but this was clearly identified as a Bat Mitzvah, which is for girls at 12.

OMG!!!!

Can I say that this is by far, the stupidest movie I have ever watched? Firstly, the acting was so stiff and unnatural.

The story, or at least, the synopsis got my attention and my hopes up. I don't know these Lifetime or Hallmark actors.

I just know that year after year, I enjoy binging on Christmas movies and most of them are great and I ended up smiling ear to ear by the end of the story.

This one did not do that for me, not even a bit. That kiss that always happens at the end? Good grief!!! The writer/director has no clue what a love scene should look like. Are they celibate? With a nickname like Candy Cain, you'd think there's be more imagination but there was nothing.

It was just straight reading of their lines, or memorizing by rote, without real feeling, all the way through to the end.

Hated this one. Gave it a three only because I got sucked in by the synotpsis.

It's just SO BAD. I love a Cheesy Christmas movie so my tolerance for cringe is high, but oh my god this was painful. The acting is terrible. I think you could go in to any school and find the drama club would do a mikes better job. The script is just appalling. I know this is supposed to be light and christmassy, but it was all just so unbelievable I was actually getting annoyed with it. Even with a low budget I still can't believe it is so bad. The lead actor, I'm sorry but this really can't be your day job. The pointless long conversations- the weird communication between him and the server in the coffee shop- what is the point?!
