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!).

What can expect more , in a film having as frame toys , in which Vanessa Lengies and Jesse Hutch are more than inspired options for their roles than the spirit of Christmas at high level ? And, indeed, this is just the point in this case.
The result is good intentioned data analyst , idealistic and not very secure out of her circle who decides save toy magasines of brand , starting with the most significant for its succes.
A handsome, unconventional, passionet to work with children and very interested by home chocolate becomes her partner in a fight for convince about impressive potential of physic toy shops.
The succes shines but in different way than the two people expect.
So, sweet, amusing, in some measure old fashion Hallmark film.

Jesse Hutch and Vanessa Lengies worked well together they had good chemistry the movie was basically a remake of another movie I've seen on another Network but it was family-oriented and cute Vanessa's voice got a little annoying I just watched it because I love Jesse Hutch.
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.
If you've watched as many of this kind of movie as I have, so many things are familiar. This story has a lot of those plot lines, but there are tiny surprises here and there in how they are delivered.
You also get to know the most prolific actors. Jesse Hutch I know and he's not my favorite, but I can't knock him too much either. Vanessa Lengies - I didn't realize how well I knew her. She hasn't impressed me in the past.
So it was a surprise to me how much I got into this movie. Vanessa Lengies played a Charlie that I was really rooting for. Her chemistry with Hutch was quite good. I wanted to watch them together endlessly. There were a lot of good lines that helped and the actors' timing was good. Usually a kid like Emma adds a great touch, but in this case they didn't take advantage of that angle as much as they could have.
Another review commented on how fast lines were delivered too quickly and I noticed that once or twice.
Something happens at the end of the party at 1 hour 36 minutes (commercial runtime) which makes absolutely no sense, but then it was necessary for the story to progress the way it did.
