LouHomey From my favorite movies..

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

HotToastyRag It's Christmas! Which means there will be an abundance of "mean person changes her ways" stories. In A Heavenly Christmas, two beloved television stars unite. . .and whatever romantic tension that was intended by the script fizzles miserably. Eric McCormack gives his all, and I dare any woman in the audience not to fall in love with him this holiday season, but chemistry can't happen with only one person's attempt. Kristin Davis either absolutely hated her costar (in which case, she should have implemented those acting lessons she desperately needed) or is just a terrible actress (hence being in need of acting lessons). For the life of me, I don't understand how any actress, when face to face with a lovelorn Eric McCormack, would be capable of such a lousy performance.My criticisms of Kristin Davis aside (which, believe me is never-ending), I'll definitely watch this movie again next Christmas. McCormack gives a wonderful performance, and at Christmas, I'm always more forgiving about less-than-stellar movies. It's not the best one out there, but give it a try and take the good from it! My favorite part of the movie (besides the eye candy) is Shirley MacLaine. Lately, she's been typecast as a "sassy, old broad" with gruff one-liners, but in this dual-role performance, she shows much more than a hard shell. In one of the roles, she's warm, friendly, and full of sunshine.

Nicole Longo (moviemaker4) What a beautiful story. Kristin Davis, Eric McCormack, Shirley MacLaine as well as the little niece were all wonderful. Thank you for bringing joy, Hope and happiness to others. Not only was the story line inspiring, the music, city views, holiday decor was awesome. I have loved Shirley MacLaine since I was a child. I am a huge fan of Will and Grace and Sex and City. I own the DVD's of all seasons for both so I am very fond of Kristin Davis and Eric McCormack. To see Eric sing was a treat, very talented! Kristin is just as adorable as ever. Beautiful Story Thank you all for bringing joy, hope and happiness to others. Thank you Hallmark for all of your masterpieces. I've enjoyed them through the years.

Christmas-Reviewer Kristen Davis has many fans because of her role as Charlotte York in "Sex and the City". However in this film she isn't playing Charlotte York she is playing Miranda the problem is the role seems to be written for someone in their 30's. Kristen is 20 years too old for the part. Now about the story! Upon her untimely death, a workaholic finds herself in training to be a Christmas Angel in Heaven. Despite being the worst recruit in the history of Christmas, she's assigned a hard luck case. As she's forced to help solve his problems, she'll start to discover the meaning of Christmas and maybe even fall in love along the wayThis whole movie however doesn't have a pulse. The tender moments fall flat. The romance has no sparks and the singing pushes away all plausibility. This is a film that borrows plots and plot twist from every Christmas film you can think of. If you are going to steel then yes "Steel from the best". The plot however never seems to jell. This is okay but not worth a repeat viewing!

anoceanroars First off, you might notice the high score and think I am crazy. It is a Hallmark film. I rate films differently than most people. I rate them in their genre, so Hallmark Films are rated differently than films released in the cinema.Secondly, this film copies many other films. If you have seen any film where the person dies and the angels brings to back to Earth to do a good deed, then you have seen this film. If you have seen Heaven Can Wait, then you have seen this film. I like this type of fantasy film. Heaven Can Wait was one of my favourite films which i could watch over and over.All the actors do a great job at making their characters believable in the unbelievable. Shirley MacLaine is the same in everything. I think this is really a cute film for Christmas. It has all the usual Hallmark sappy hooks. In my opinion, this is a 8.5 out of 10, but we cannot rate it a half point, so i score up or down depending on the feeling. I could watch it again next year or the year after.
