Heartfelt Christmas Movie - Great chemistry between two main characters

As someone who consumes these holiday movies - Hallmark, Lifetime and now Netflix, every year, I will say Christmas Ever After is definitely one of my favorites this year. Great diverse representation, cute story theme with an out-of-town novelist, and single dad, both in their own waves looking for an opportunity to experience or re-experience love. I enjoyed the quirky banter between Izzi (Ali Stoker) and Matt (Daniel di Tomasso) - I think Daniel did a great job of showcasing Matt's almost shy hesitancy to acknowledge his growing feelings for Izzi. The actress playing Matt's daughter was adorable and hilarious. Also, the fact that the movie featured a heroine in wheelchair without making that the center of the story was so well done. The only thing I thought could have been done better was the ending, it was a bit rushed or perhaps I just wanted to spend some more time with these characters. I have had this movie on repeat on my DVR and recommending it to friends as well!

I usually like these but...

The actors deserve so much better than this. I faithfully watch all the films of this type every year, but this one is just trying too hard and not succeeding. All the conversations bring up a topic that seems like it should move the plot forward, but then someone leaves the room and nothing moves forward. That is not banter. I quit 25 minutes in. It's just poor writing. I really hope Ali Stroker gets to be in another one of these (or that Broadway reopens). If you like the leading man, watch him in Chicago Fire or Major Crimes. This movie just doesn't work.

A Funny & Entertaining Christmas Movie

Ali Stroker is wonderful! She's a talented actress and a great singer. This year there is an obvious, and sometimes controversial, agenda of casting in the name of diversity, and they've struck gold here. That is NOT to suggest that the ONLY reason she was cast is tokenism, because she completely makes this movie. She's beautiful, energetic, funny and even with some weaknesses in some of the other cast, she makes this a movie worth watching. Well done!

Bravo for Diversity!

I have loved Ali Stroker since she guest starred on Glee & then she made it to Broadway in the revival of Oklahoma! Ali stars as a romance writer that is unlucky in love, but then stumbles upon a man that looks exactly like the artwork on her novels. Is this swooning hero for real? Cute holiday story!

Somewhat natural for a change...!

This is indeed a very good effort. The dialogues and the performances were decent and natural, so was the chemistry between the two leading actors. The matter of diversity was handled with dignity and discretion. Well done! A must see for these holidays! Happy new year everyone!

Trivia
In the scene on Christmas Eve when Matt is looking at the photos of his late wife, they're actually photos of the actor and his real wife.

Goofs
Mila tells Izzi, "Your holiday themed book was supposed to be available for the holidays," referring to the reason she won't allow the final draft deadline past Christmas Eve. Even though the book is for next Christmas, that statement makes no sense in a pure rationale perspective of not having some flexibility in the deadline.

Quotes
Bob: Izzi. What do I owe the pleasure again?
Izzi Simmons: I just have a quick question.
Bob: Let me guess. You saw the remodeled aesthetics.
Izzi Simmons: About that. Um, my floors... I mean, your floors, technically, they used to have a distinct squeak. But the thing is, now the squeak is gone and there's a carpet over the floorboards.
Bob: I'm sensing you don't like the carpet.
Izzi Simmons: Was this your idea?
Bob: No, it was, uh, his. Meet the new owner of the B&B, my son. He just moved back from Seattle.
Izzi Simmons: Desmond?
Matt: Uh, actually, no. It's uh... It's Matt.
Izzi Simmons: Matt?
Matt: Yup. Matt.
Izzi Simmons: Your name is Matt?
Matt: Yeah. Like, short for Matthew.
Izzi Simmons: You look exactly like... You know what, um, never mind. This is, this is so... This is something, this is confusing and confounding and a little bit exciting.
Matt: Uh, okay. Well, to answer your question, uh, you're not hearing that squeak cause I fixed the floorboards. It's actually very simple, you just sprinkle a little baby powder over the squeaky floorboard, work it in the seams. Lubricates the wood, keeps the boards from rubbing together.
Izzi Simmons: Neat. That's, like, so neat.
Matt: Yea, well. I realized it's only a temporary solution. So, uh, we went carpeted.
Izzi Simmons: No, you went carpeted. We went squeaky floors, right, Bob?
Bob: Oh, I'm going Switzerland on this one.
Matt: Are you?
Izzi Simmons: I'm gonna go out of this room. Um, I have to leave, um, my editor is calling and I have to take this in my room.
Matt: Your phone didn't ring or buzz.
Izzi Simmons: Um, I meant, I have to call her. You know how editors are.
Matt: No. Not really. How are they?
Izzi Simmons: They need to be called back.
Matt: Well, you better call her back then.
Izzi Simmons: That's what I'm gonna do. Bye!
