jimmyorlando-68027 The whole idea of sending a bitch who only cares about money and parties to a small town to learn about the true values of Christmas and being a nice person is great. 1. But the lead female character is not a bitch, doesn't look like a bitch. 2. The lead male character is a bit too goofy and dorky. 3. The pace of the movie is way too fast to make the script believable. The "brat" turns into a good girl WAY TOO FAST. It only takes 2 days......REALLY???!?!?A lot of plot holes. 1. cellphones don't work because it is supposed to be a small town..... but that have an Apple Store...... 2. Lead female character is stuck in the town because of winter storm......no storm do we see..... Only a couple of centimeters snow. If that is supposed to be a major snowstorm.... 3. Main characters are about to kiss......Does the lead female character hates her fiancee so much? It didn't look like it at the beginning of the movie though. In other words, unbelievable romance between bitch and goofy guy 4. Fiancee is supposed to be a jerk.....He is not. He drives through a " snow storm" to this small town to pick her up to go on a well deserved vacation. How can this guy be an asshole. He should be the one dumping HER IN THE END. 5. Snow all around but lead female character keeps walking on very high heels all the time. No one does that. 6. Goofy male main character reacts too angry when he finds out who the new girl really is. No one does that. And if you do, you will definitely stay single. I can go on for hours this way. To many plot holes. Too bad. But since I wanted to watch a Christmas movie and this is a Christmas movie in the end, I grand this movie a 4
Prismark10 Ellen Langford (Eliza Taylor) is a rich party girl who creates salacious newspaper headlines. Her father has had enough. To prove to him she is fit to inherit the family business, she is sent on a bus with $100 to deliver and a special Christmas letter to her dad's former partner in the small town of Snow Falls which has no mobile phone signal. Ellen cannot tell anyone who she really is.Her suitcase is run over by the local cabbie and innkeeper Jake Collins (Jake Lacy) who once spent some time in New York but he did not like the big city life. Ellen is stranded in the town during a snowstorm. She works in the inn to make some money, learns how to bake with the help of Jake's aunt. Ellen after spending some time in Snow Falls has a different outlook in life and falls for Jake despite being engaged.Although made by Netflix this is not too far removed from the Hallmark Christmas cookie cutter formula. Ellen and Jake give appealing performances but it all too syrupy. A sugar laced romance with the subtext of you have to go to a small town to find the true meaning of life.
katshapiro I went into this hoping for some cotton-candy brain cleanser after a long day at work. Which means my expectations were already nearing rock bottom. And yet still, somehow, I'm disappointed.First off, actors Eliza Taylor, Neil Crone, and Michael Xavier all did a good job. And that's the only positive thing I can say here. Because when the plot is that a rich girl cheats on her loving fiance with a grown-up toddler in overalls, whose main hobbies are drawing 3rd grade level pictures of Santa Claus and punching jukeboxes, and the fiance takes this all with a surprisingly level head even when she unceremoniously dumps him on Christmas eve, and the take-away is that baking cookies is good for the soul, well, I had to wash this all down with a good book afterwards to get my eyeballs out of the moral dumpster fire.
JShaft33 I don't understand who a town with one taxi and no cell service has a college? Also - a blizzard forces people to evacuate yet a short time later the roads are clear and the weather is calm as if nothing happened?I'm okay with some imagination but you can't expect me to suspend all of my belief.
