Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Nice effects though.

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

The movie is not one of Candace's best. But considering the script she was working with.... it was ok. I wouldnt want to see the movie again, the premise about Candace playing twin sisters was a bit drab. there was no relationship between the sisters and the relationship between the father and the sister who chose to have a career in an advertising agency and the sister who chose to be a mother on the PTA and the committee for the winter pagent. I usually Like Candace Cameron's movies but not in this movie and the storyline was just boring.

I fully understand Candace Cameron's appeal. However as light hearted as this film is her charms do not work at all in this film.In this film she plays "twins" that are opposite. Each think of course the other has an "Easier Life". So they both decide to switch for the holidays. Now this is not a "Freaky Friday" its "Wife Swap".The film suffers because Candace fails to bring 3 dimensions to both parts. She is flat. She also need to make each "Person" have different mannerisms. Because she fails the film fails because the truth is "The Minor Differences" that she brings isn't enough to being an "A-Ha" moment to a full realization. Hallmark Staple Alicia Witt should have been given this project. She would made a film people would remember!

I consider Alicia Witt as the Queen of Christmas movies. I have to say that Candace is close to getting that title with this movie. Both actresses have had one Christmas movie a year since 2013. Alicia had one great (A very Merry Mix-up), 2 excellent and 2 OK. Now Candace has 2 greats (the other is Christmas Detour) and 3 so-so (Let it Snow, Christmas Under Wraps and Journey Back to Christmas). I think Christmas Detour was better than this because of Paul Greene and Sarah Strange.This movie was all Candace playing both twin sister parts. She did an awesome job. It was great all the way through. The nature of the story made for constant conflict and change which made it exciting. The movie effectively played music during some scenes which otherwise could be boring. The two male leads were great and it was very apparent why each liked the sisters. I think it so unfair the two top reviewers (as I write this) give it a 1/10. Support Candace and lift up the good reviews.

This was confusing. The idea of twins switching is probably as old as mankind. It's certainly been done in books and movies. But it isn't done in Christmas movies as often as so many of the other devices. And this one was done pretty well.The story had all kinds of possibilities and made good use of some of them. If nothing else, the movie kept you on your toes trying to remember which one you were looking at as the settings switched back and forth. I think we knew that in the end we weren't going to be very surprised.So often in reviews we talk about the chemistry of the leads. Candace Cameron-Bure had chemistry, with two men. Eion Bailey and Adam Sinclair each clicked with Candace.Production and scenery were good. It had mountain view and exterior Christmas decorations and interior Christmas decorations which were all beautiful.As is often true with Hallmark, family was a big theme. And many of the other traditional themes were present as well including some sappiness. However, overall, I think this movie presents it all in a little different way.
