A fun Christmas movie that I caught on Prime. Great looking leads and a cute story made this an easy watch. A lot of great chemistry between the two main characters. They seemed really into each other. Fast and a fun watch.
Sparks fly between a beautiful executive (Laura Vandervoort) and a man (Nick Zano) who wins a Santa Claus contest.
Desperately Seeking Santa, stars Laura Vandervoort as a "steely marketing executive" who sets up a contest to search for a "sexy Santa" as part of a marketing ploy for a mall. This puts her life on the path to collide with David (Nick Zano), a guy who wants to win the Sexy Santa contest for the prize money, which could help save his family's restaurant.
I don't mind a by the numbers story but this film doesn't try to be creative. It seems to be on a mission to bore the audience. The acting is okay but the premise is beyond plausible.
I am not sure who this film was made for. Straight women or gay men. However whoever watches this film will be bored. In fact this film works better on people then a sleeping pill!

The Laura Vandervoort and Nick Zano starring characters were excellent. The "Sexy Santa" contest was a creative way to get some great humor and fun dancing into the movie. There was a part near the end where two of the male minor characters set up a date together. This was awkward and was not needed at all. It is small and would not detract from the family watching.
This is your typical Christmas movie. Overworked cynical attractive woman meets a hot man with a big heart who loves the holidays. It's a sweet pure fluff movie and it works.
I found several charming moments throughout the movie and got a few laughs. If you want a feel good movie to take your mind off things you won't be disappointed. And of course there's lots of eye candy.
Main complaint is the lack of chemistry between the two leads, mostly on Jennifer's side. In the majority of scenes she's standing arms crossed looking irritated.
I can't tell if the actress is cold , is reluctant, or it's a lazy way of portraying she's a cynic. Either way it's mildly distracting Still worth checking out.
