Il faut sauver la boutique de Noël

I liked the pairing of. Grant (Jesse Hutch) and Charlie (Vanessa Lengies) They had good chemistry. But the little girl Emma and her mom (Grant's sister) talked way to fast, couldn't understand a thing they said. That was very irritating.

The chemistry between these two actors is felt through out the movie. They were natural with each other and didn't feel forced or awkward. The atmosphere and background was magical and the storyline kept my interest. They did occasionally talk too fast or I would have given it a perfect 10. But overall it was a delightful, romantic celebration of the Christmas spirit and the love of the Holiday and each other.

It was great to see Jesse Hutch back on Hallmark-and with Vanessa Lengies (loved her on NBC's American Dreams series). They had a great chemistry together and the movie was very heartwarming and Christmas-y. Hallmark ended Christmas in July on a high note with this movie.

As others have noted, some of the speech in this film is REALLY fast. There were lines neither my wife nor I could understand even by replaying them.

It made me wonder if they ran long, and rather than cutting a scene, they time compressed all or part of it. I've never heard so much rapid speech, and from multiple roles.

Back to the movie. It's a common trope. Large corporation decides to cut brick and mortars, and it's up to our intrepid data analyst to save the day by discovering why one particular store still shows a profit.

The writers have a few ideas for that. I'm not so sure those things work in real life rather than scriptwriter idea-land, but they make for a charming story either way.

It's a recommended watch but I doubt we'll subject ourselves to the machine gun dialogue again.

Loved the premise. Loved me some Jesse.

But: Many of the actors spoke too quickly, inaudible to more "senior" ears--and even the close captioning could not keep up (with typos to boot!).
