De retour vers Noël

Good looking men, the second chance, a nice young woman front to dilemma, jealous guy and the friend from childhood. And the parents. And the air of Christmas.

Nothing new ,but correct crafted And beautiful dose of realism. And Gloria Loring as axis of a nice story about Christmas, second chance and true love.

We tried to watch this on Hulu and it's one we couldn't finish!! We couldn't get into the movie. It tried to be like a hallmark movie but falls flat on its face. Didn't feel the actors gelled together, they felt like they were forcing it!! The movie lacks heart, lacks that feel good feeling you get when watching hallmark Christmas movies. I give it three stars for trying but anything about that is a paid for review!!

Very happy to have watched this movie. They did most things very well and some things not so well. Kelly Overton was great in the lead as Ali, but they could have spent more time developing her character in the beginning. Instead they had a stupid scene where her boss makes jokes about making a pass ate her. Excellent when she runs into her old live-in partner (Cameron) and he is with Lauren Storm who plays 3 different parts in the movie. The mom and dad are both fantastic and the mom plays a major role in the movie in projecting her dream upon her daughter. A thought provoking part of the story indeed. Cameron is great as self centered/obnoxious who is only liked by the mother. Nice to see Jonathan Patrick Moore as the good guy Nick (he was Nick in the Mistletones). It is an ION TV movie.

A woman gets the chance to go back to the previous Christmas Eve to try and save her relationship.

Although it's a predictable Christmas romance film, this scores due to the fact it's actually quite funny. Kelly Overton makes for an engaging lead actress as Ali, as well as being easy on the eye she displays a good comic timing and delivers plenty of witty lines. A sharp and witty script means there is a sharp sense of humour throughout the film especially when Mark Hutter and Moses Storm are on screen. The two male lead love interests work less well for me, coming across as a bit bland.

This is very much aimed at the female market and most of it's target audience should enjoy it. Thanks to it's pretty leading lady and funny script there is enough here to make this endurable to guys as well.

As long as you don't expect too much this is an enjoyable way to waste a couple of lazy hours on a winter morning.

The movie had christmas and nice performances but the romance was rushed. Plus, the magical christmas lady was a bit over the top. There were some plot holes too and they didn't explain the whole magic trip to the past.
