A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

I loved this movie so much that I watched it 3 times last December! Jake Kelly is such a cutie and a good actor! I can't wait to watch it again this year!

I have seen Taylor in the show (The 100) I like her acting. She has done a great work in this movie too. I would like to see her in more shows like these.

I decided to watch this on Netflix simply because i couldn't find anything else to watch. This "Christmas Inheritance" is something that we've all seen a trillion times before, this film is similar to those Christmas TV lifetime movies except this film is a little better made.The performances are good, but the plot is cliched and predictable.
As a Christian i can easily see a lot of Godly positive factors in this movie, it's a nice film, but it is not very entertaining.
If you like these type of common story lines then you will like this movie.There is a negative element which i want to mention which is the biased view of small towns being good and big cities being negative, a comment was made in a piece of dialogue about why a particular character left New York, it's a generalisation, and as someone who lives in a city i can see why city life and city people can be seen as a negative, but at the same time i lived in a small town for a few months and not everyone was friendly there, so i don't buy everything that this movie was trying to feed me.Christmas Inheritance is predictable from the start and especially when the main female lead meets the male lead as soon as she arrives in that small town.
To be honest i was hoping that she would stay with the black guy/her fiance, all he needed was a little bit of an attitude adjustment, or the film should have at least made the ending different by having her go back to New York without the fiance and just having a change of heart in general, that would have actually been better than going back to the small town with the romance cliched ending. This film is too safe, Netflix writers need to step up their game, Netflix are either making unwatchable dark films or films that are too common.Christmas Inheritance is just about watchable, and i say "just about" because it doesn't have any exciting or fun elements.

Don't get me wrong. In many ways this movie ticks all the boxes when it comes to formulaic cheesiness. Is there an attractive, secretly wealthy boy/ or girl who's working undercover (to learn about themselves and/or learn how to take over the family's company or kingdom as part of an inheritance and/or experience the real world)? Yes!Does the action take place in a small, wholesome, cosy little town and/or palace in some East European-ovia country? Yes!Is the object of their attraction a pretty or handsome-yet-ordinary person with a heart of gold? Yes! Is one of them due to get married to/in a relationship with, someone they don't really love? Yes! Is there a late-in-the-day 'misunderstanding' between the romantic leads - which has to be resolved before they finally realize they're meant for each other? Yup.All's well and good in this movie, except for one thing. I'm sure the male lead is a lovely person in real life but he's mis-cast. For these type of movies to work, BOTH leads need to be attractive. Even attractive and quirky is okay.The girl is beautiful and adorable. Too bad the male lead in "Christmas Inheritance" ain't no HUNK. He's just downright goofy looking.......and not in a unconventional, fanciable way.For that reason alone, sadly it's a FAIL from me!
