Diagonaldi Very well executed

CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!

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

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Christmas-Reviewer Review Date 1/29/2018PLEASE BEWARE OF SOME REVIEWERS THAT ONLY HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. WHEN ITS A POSITIVE THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. NOW I HAVE NO AGENDA! I REVIEW MOVIES & SPECIALS AS A WAY TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT I HAVE SEEN! I HAVE DISCOVERED MANY GEMS IN MY QUEST TO SEE AS MANY " C H R I S T M A S " MOVIES AS I CAN. Now Someone keeps reporting my reviews. I guess they are jealous because I do tell the truth. I want to point out that I never make snide remarks about actors weight or real life sexual orientation. If there acting is terrible or limited "I talk about that". If a story is bad "I will mention that" So why am I being "picked on"? IMDB? When one of my reviews gets deleted IMDB will not even tell me what someone found offensive. Well on to this review.After their parents separate, two estranged sisters who haven't been on speaking terms reunite in hopes that having a family Christmas all together for the first time in years will bring their Mom and Dad close again. They plan to do this in their old family home... the only problem is someone else lives there now.Now know matter how old you are "You Always Want Your Parents To Be Together" but the premise of this movie just doesn't work. There is no emotional linchpin that holds the movie together. We get scenes that are over done by every conceivable thing you can think of. I think if the film had one of the children on parents be a very young child then I might I have like the film. However they did not do that and the film is just one of many "Christmas Films" that had a good idea but poorly executed!!

jtomlinson-48204 Excellent for this genre!It is so nice to see a movie that has very little sensationalism. They have their struggles and deal with them. I did not feel my stomach going into knots or my adrenaline spiking! Thank you! It was sweet and touched me and I cried a little. I also guessed the girls had to be rl sisters, and they are.I'll probably watch this one every year. I think it is good and a warm Christmas story even though Christmas is not really the Focus of the movie, but more the context.I hope everyone enjoys it. The house is gorgeous and reminds me of my family home. I don't want movies pushing my buttons. I am happy to just sit back and relax and enjoy a good story.Merry Christmas!

SnoopyStyle It's five years since Kate (Carly McKillip) walked out of her younger sister Melanie (Britt McKillip)'s wedding. She saw the groom flirting and tried to stop the wedding. Their parents (Amy Jo Johnson, George Canyon) are struggling financially and splitting up. They lost their family home which is bought by Mike (Ben Hollingsworth). Everybody is estranged and bitter. Melanie is hiding the fact that she's living alone in an empty house. Kate tries to reunite the family at the old house for Christmas.This is a lower grade Christmas TV movie. There seems to be more of them every year. The bigger problem is that there is nothing here but an idea for a movie. The setup is somewhat interesting. The story isn't interesting enough. The actors try valiantly but there isn't anything more that they can do. This movie needs to start with a better script. Also the romance needs better chemistry and a better male lead for it to work. The sisters have a few good scenes but that's about it. They also sing which is their gig now.

lisapem Bad acting...poor story line.Characters are not believable. Don't waste your time, there are too many other good Christmas movies out there to watch and brighten your holiday season. Sorry, but the bad acting and poor casting of characters was too distracting. Definitely a B movie with B actors. I tried to like the movie, but just couldn't. Love the premise, but it just didn't deliver. Maybe, if it is a book, it would be much better. Maybe, the characters would be more developed and of course, the bad acting would not distract from the story. What else can I say? I don't recommend this movie.
