    Could have been so much better.

    Nice story but some of the acting was straight out of a 9th grade school play. The actors playing Scots were obviously more seasoned actors and they saved it to a certain extent, but the lead actress needs to know that she doesn't have to smile through dialogue that is supposed to be serious, and the young man playing Finn needs a few more school plays in his resume before acting on screen. Timing was awful all the way through. It was a nice story line that was not well edited or directed. There was a very apparent lack of chemistry between the two leads that maybe good acting on both sides could have fixed but not in this case. Pedestrian at best.

    A fun Xmas movie with every cliche going

    This was an enjoyable watch for a run of the mill Xmas movie set in the Highlands of Scotland (Fort William and Lochaber). The story was easy to follow and entirely predictable with almost no elements of surprise, with pleasant enough characters acting entirely within stereotypes.

    The most enjoyable part of the film was spotting the Scottish cliches abundantly thrown around, from dancing in the snow with a piper in the background to the bonnie wee Scots girl with ginger hair as a secondary love interest (albeit more believable than the main relationship).

    Scenery, as ever in this area, was stunning and there were plenty of shots of local landmarks to whet the appetite for more.

    Who's was the close out song?

    I watched this on C5 last night.

    Thank goodness, a new Christmas film, it made a change from the constant repeats we've been given recently.

    This was a bit of a mixture, it was like any other romantic film. But, in places, it seemed a bit of a fantasy.

    Like the steam train. Obviously a heritage line, but why just the heroine and the station master alone on the platform, twice?

    The ghost of the landlady's husband, moving stuff about.

    The brewery? Far too big to be what we were supposed to believe it was.

    The "bed and breakfast" more like a castle.

    The reindeer turning up unaccompanied, one complete with a bell around its neck, from where did they come?

    The young star rugby player? You could tell he'd never touched a ball in his life from the clips of his training. But a nice little sub-plot romance.

    However, it was a pleasant enough film and despite its faults I enjoyed it.

    I was really impressed with close out song.

    "It's the light of Christmas."

    It suited the fantasy.

    Anyone know, who was the girl singer?

    A very attractive voice.

    I've done a search but can find nothing.

    Above average X-mas romp

    Like everything else in our currently upside-down society, the best way to review an X-mas film these days is by observing what it is NOT. Saving Christmas Spirit is, first and foremost, not a product of the Great Canadian X-Mas Movie Machine, an sub-industry in Canada which each year strives to produce as many generic X-mas movie knockoffs as humanly possible. It also is not an X-Mas movie that believes in bowling over the viewer with bright colors, bright lights, and glitzy surroundings, all with the intent to substitute looks for quality. Rather, this is a nice, lazy, easygoing, and quite comfortable romp with appealing characters and a story that holds the attention. Ashley Newbrough is the "glue" that keeps the whole thing working. She has a very distinctive way of delivering dialog, almost as if she is talking directly to the audience. And all those Scottish accents ... who can resist? Brings to mind the iconic SNL skit with the punchline "IF IT's NOOO SKOTTISH.... IT'S KKRRRAPPP!" Recommended! ((Designated "IMDb Top Reviewer." Please check out my list "167+ Nearly-Perfect Movies (with the occasional Anime or TV miniseries) you can/should see again and again (1932 to the present))

    Gorgeous, magical Christmas movie with warm characters and beautiful Scotland as its backdrop

    This is a gorgeous, magical Christmas movie with delightful characters set in lovely Scotland. And bonus! It's not one of those factory produced, typical Christmas films with the same boring plot! It's got romance and humor, drama, reindeer and plenty of storyline to keep you interested and warm and fuzzy inside. Loved Ashely Newbrough and James Robinson as the leads, and loved the actors who played the kids in the subplot which really moves the story along and gave it extra layers. Layla Burns who is also in Outlander plays a darling and feisty red headed rugby player, and Jake Satow from The Dropout plays a charming and heartfelt kid who tries to help her start a girls rugby team. Louis Emerick from Brookside is fabulous as the grumpy coach and Joanne Randle is so funny as the cheeky Aunt Edina. This movie has Christmas magic from start to finish, and the traditional ceilidh dance and end song truly top it off! The scenery and locations are beautiful throughout and make you want to go there. The musical score is also really great. Beautifully filmed. This is one to watch every year by a cozy fire with a warm beverage in hand.
