    My wish for you - don't bother

    The previous reviewer summed it pretty adequately. I, too, wish I had those 2 hours back! We watch a LOT of Christmas movies and this might be one of the worst ones yet. For some reason, the title got changed, my feeling is a poor attempt to appeal to animal lovers, to "12 Wishes For My Dog." But the dog has very little to do with the story and the wishes are not really related to him. It would've made a better story if they were the dog's wishes!

    The movie had a couple of decent actors (Fred Willard, Michael Gross), the story premise was interesting, and there were some nice Holiday shots, and the star was very sweet (but totally unbelievable), but the acting was just bad. The story had promise but failed to execute. If you want a warm and fuzzy feeling, watch the last 5 minutes and skip the rest of the movie.

    Yes this is worth watching

    BEWARE OF BOGUS REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. TRUST ME THIS FILM IS TERRIBLE. NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 400 Christmas MOVIES. I HAVE NO AGENDA. I AM FARE.

    This is a good film. I don't care what others say. This film is charming. Young children and men under 30 will most likely hate this (They are ones posting nasty reviews) however most people over 30 will love the simple story with a heart of gold.

    In this story a woman has a life coach that is really a guardian angel who grants her 12 wishes for Christmas. AS the saying goes "Be Careful What You Wish For".

    What is nice is that about this film is that what happens in this film is 80% plausible in what this woman wishes for and the reactions she has when her wishes are granted.

    The film has a nice pace to it. Its very enjoyable. Be warned on Amazon the film is titled "12 Wishes For My Dog".

    The film is worth buying. What is nice is when you buy these films and let your friends borrow them. Share the joy.

    I'd definitely wish for Mr O'Donell.

    This is not one of the best productions I have seen. It's lacking a final polish, but the idea is at least a bit different. However I think it needed a bit more focus on the romance element, as the gorgeous David O'Donnell was hardly even in it.

    I have to say I did complete a jigsaw puzzle while I watched it, so it didn't completely grab my attention, but I wouldn't turn it off if I saw it on again.

    It's a typical film in the genre of "Careful what you wish for". Every action, has a consequence and you should think before you act. It's a good message for any time of the year, but I think that the Christmas message got a bit lost in the process along with the romance.

    It does have cute dogs in it though!

    A seasonal movie for the ladies...

    "12 Wishes of Christmas" is definitely a movie for the ladies. This is as sugar-coated as it comes. This romantic Christmas comedy is molded directly from the foundry that spews out these romantic comedies by the dozens. It has everything that you could want in a movie of this type.

    The story is about Laura Lindsey (played by Elisa Donovan) whose life comes crashing down in a series of events, and she is given a second chance at a mystical life coach which grants her 12 wishes. But with these wishes comes responsibility. Will Laura be able to rise to the occasion and make the changes in her life and in the lives of those around her?

    "12 Wishes of Christmas" does prove entertaining enough the first time you watch it, despite it being so sugar-coated that your teeth literally hurt while you watch the movie. However, I will say that this is not a movie that I will be watching again. Perhaps because I am not a woman, so I am not a sucker for these particular types of movies.

    It was actually quite nice to see Michael Gross in this movie, despite him not having that big a role. He actually did bring something nice to the movie, and he was one of the more interesting of actors to behold in the movie. Of other notable faces in the movie, you have Gabrielle Carteris and Fred Willard.

    If you enjoy sugar-coated seasonal comedies with a pinch of romance, then you will most definitely enjoy "12 Wishes of Christmas".

    Excellent Movie

    Enjoyable Christmas movie. We see how Laura handles the 12 wishes she's able to make. Make sure to always read the fine print.

    Great performance by Chonda Pierce as Noel the life coach angel.

    Excellent actors and a feel good movie.
