Noël au chalet

I really enjoyed this Christmas movie on LIfetime. Teri Hatcher is so funny and she is still so beautiful. The entire cast did a great job on this show. I thought that the story was creative and really enjoyed that it was set in todays time with the live videos and social media. I laughed out loud several times, mainly because of Terri. She is perfect for CHristmas movies and I hope that she does more to come. As an avid christmas movie watcher for the past 40 years, I found this one to stand up high to all the others that are played on the different channels. Also, the girls working at the chalet were wonderful actresses that are talented and were great assets to the show. Thank you!

Teri Hatcher was fabulous. Material was not the best but she did a terrific job. Her lead actor not so good. Mother of the son was very good and brought warmth to the role. Lifetime should def do more rob coms and def use Teri Hatcher. She is a great comedic actress The surrounding cast was fine but not to much to do. My biggest criticism is the amount of commercials. It ruined the flow of the movie. The x husband was fine should have given him more to do the hotel atmosphere was a great backdrop. Reminded me of that fabulous series hotel with Connie Selleca. All in all a very nice Xmas movie without all the Xmas fluff.

As much as I've enjoyed many an under 35s movie, there just aren't enough flicks that portray/celebrate the middle years - something like 'Christmas at the Chalet' is much more rewatchable because I won't grow out of it like the others. This has a good mix of the past, the present and digital worlds, showing how they can compliment each other if we don't get obsessed the first and last. Likewise it is good to complete the mundane with a little bit of sparkle. Co-incidentally I'd just watched another Teri Hatcher / Dan Payne romance flick so it was weird seeing them at odds here, but also backed up the premise that they once were an item.

"Absolutely fell for the charm of 'Christmas at the Chalet'! It's that perfect blend of holiday warmth and unexpected romance that had me hooked from start to finish. The Aspen backdrop is nothing short of magical - snow-covered mountains, twinkling lights - it's like a winter dream. And Lex taking on the chalet worker gig? Hilarious and totally relatable! It adds this quirky touch to the story that keeps you smiling.

The characters are a blast, especially Lex and Eric. Their chemistry is the heart of the movie, making you root for them from the get-go. The snowy scenes in Aspen are not just scenic; they're practically a winter wonderland that makes you want to dive into the screen.

If you're into feel-good holiday movies that make you laugh a bit, swoon a lot, and just embrace the festive spirit, 'Christmas at the Chalet' is an absolute winner. It's got everything - cozy vibes, great characters, and that perfect dose of holiday magic. Two big thumbs up from me! 👍👍

P. S. - The chalet's family backstory? Adds an extra layer of heart to the whole experience, making it more than just a love story; it's a celebration of connections and new beginnings."

Yes Christmas movies have no original plots and if you're lucky they're filmed at a scenic real location instead of the Hallmark studio lot in Vancouver. There are a few of the Christmas movie actress troupe that can actually carry a movie (ex. Bethany Joy Lenz) such that's its watchable. Terri Hatcher is now in that small group IMHO. This movie is in reality a Terri vehicle so if you like her (I do) then sit back and enjoy. Otherwise you may want to skip it. Scenery is ok but mostly generic Colorado ski area. Actors are competent but are overshadowed by TH. Dialog / Direction is focused on Hatcher, so it works as long as she is performing. All in all a watchable holiday movie thanks to TH.
