This small film about children acting as detective sleuths is sweet, good fun and a perfect film for Christmas without it becoming cheesy
It still has those core family values about being together, working together for justice to be made, kindness etc
The children act good enough and come off as sweet huggable smart kids. The adults act with respect all throughout towards each other and towards these little sleuths, even the criminal comes across as a decent person with issues.
The film never feels long, holds your interest throughout and the written characters are true to their form without any red herrings thrown in.
All in all a nice and smart film.

This movie was perfect for the family with a 5 year old and a 7 year old. They enjoyed figuring out who the thief was. A happy ending topped the fun. Enjoy!
The site wants more of information, so we watched it in two sessions. This was fine with no need to rework md. It was also good for the grandparents, who were visiting. Each character was believable for he parts played. We loved the small town setting. The scenery was lovely with the western background.
Surely all generations will enjoy this movie. I hope you get a hot chocolate, tune in, and relax. You will be rewarded with a feel good experience.

Feel good and charming Christmas movie. It is expected story, althout it's not tiring and it is easy for watchig. I would say 6/10 if you don't have big expectations and you know that Christmas movies have pretty simple story. Cast is actually pretty good, kids played like a pro, keep it up :)
I would say it is better then expected for TV movie. If anything good cames from platforms like HBO and Netflix are Christmas movies. There are every year with 2 or 3 good and this year this will be one of them. Side note, movie would be great for watching with kids, without violance or disturbing scenes.
I don't usually watch these types of movies, the only reason I decided to watch this one because of the interesting trailer, a good cast and it's from Warner Bros. And I'm glad I gave it a try. A cute little Christmas movie with lots of heart and love. McGraw sisters doing fantastic performances and I can't wait to watch more from them.

Trees are green, grass is green and just starting to look brown, but it's supposed to be in Oregon at Christmas time. Such a simple detail that was overlooked. Also, it's sad when a movie focuses on material possessions. Some of the wealthiest people are not rich in material possessions. The children in the movie are very talented. Musically, this movie is lacking. Music is very intertwined with Christmas, at least for me. I have to type many letters before this review will be accepted, so I will continue to ramble on. Christmas is a very special holiday. Full of family memories, love, and giving.
