Disappointing

I'm not sure what the budget was this movie movie but I think most school drama groups could have done a better job. It's a sweet story but the acting is the worst I've ever seen, not helped by the very poor sound quality. It was painful to watch.

I don't have a star to give...

This is the most awkward and uncomfortable situation I have ever experienced. Who would ever agree to a situation where a Borrowed Christmas was something a "Rent Shop" would be able to provide. Not to mention the pacing is excruciating. The weird music in the background and a lack of transition from scene to scene is as low budget as you can get. I don't even know how I'm supposed to feel. It's got a weird suggestive relationship going on and I would be happy to never watch this movie again in my life. I can't believe this movie even got made. It'll make you skin crawl but hope that maybe it will get better but then it just doesn't.

Delightfully original

A man steps into a shop to rent himself a Christmas celebration. Since he pays well, we're instantly involved and excited to see if the shop owner will pull this off.

The limited location concept works fine, but it doesn't go unnoticed that the supporting cast is flared with first-timer mannerism. The two main characters played by Sherry Morris and Jeff Rose are very solid, I just wish their chemistry would be tested full out.

During the movie's first half, the story refuses to jingle, due to flawed storytelling. However, once the ornaments are up and daddy's home, we're in for a fulfilling and memorable Christmas sleep-over.

I really wanted to like this movie

I loved the premise of this movie, and I can stay with pretty much any movie even if the actors are a bit off, but I found this uncomfortable to watch. I see many reviewers compare it to a high school play and that is what it seemed like. The acting was very disjointed, cues looked to be missed and it seemed that they were a bit uncomfortable as well.
