Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Excellent but underrated film

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

This one was a delight from beginning to end. Starring Brooke Burns who I loved from The Most Wonderful Time of the Year (2008) and Fixing Pete (2011). Great to see her in a Christmas movie again. Loved Tom Everette Scott who played the lead actor and a widowed dad. He had the greatest presence with an unusual mannerism a little like Robin Williams. He's not the normal and this was tremendously effective with Brooke Burns. The little girl daughter and their interaction with her and Christmas made the movie effective. The story focused on these 3 main characters to its success. Loved how they did Christmas in this movie. The family gathered at different nights at family members houses to decorate a tree, make cookies, etc. The mystery of Brooke Burns character parents was well done and added depth to the movie. I agree with the Christmas Reviewer and want to see this one again next year. I only give about 1 in 10 movies a perfect 10 and that's after using IMDB to screen out the low rated ones. Well done. Well Done. Well Done.

Brook Burns is on fire in this movie. A walking masterpiece of womanly artwork. It is hard to believe that she would fall for this guy and his dopey family. She needs to be married to a real estate billionaire. It'a nice story and well done, but who cares.

Maybe it's just me and the fact that I love family Christmases but this movie really warmed my heart. Brooke Burns' performance felt so sincere (I wasn't sure I'd like her but I fell in love with her!) and Tom Everett Scott is always a delight. The story was also nicely told and the ending made me choke up a bit. Overall, a very nicely told movie. <3

The leads in this Christmas romance are watchable. Always liked Brooke Burns who shows she can do romantic comedy as well as Lifetime drama. Tom Everett Scott has a kind look. So the 2 make a more mature and dignified looking couple than the usual silly and annoyingly perky holiday Hallmark movie. A nice flight attendant keeps watch over an unaccompanied minor and ends up stuck in Chicago over the holidays. Of course she meets and falls for the single father of the kid. The father is a reporter who unearths some story about how her parents met in the city years ago.Worth one watch.
