Christmas movies seem to be a dime a dozen these days; every year, more and more Yuletide flicks get released, but many of them are rather derivative of previous films. That’s especially true of Hallmark Channel telefilms; that network often recycles plots and stars throughout the year, but especially during the holiday season. That’s why I generally don’t watch them; a couple of years ago, I made the mistake of seeing two Hallmark Christmas movies within a few weeks of each other... and they had the exact same plot. Still, I was looking for something festive at my local library to watch this week, and this was the best I could find. For what it was, it was fun; Candace Cameron Bure did a great job as the lead, and the story was entertaining despite being unoriginal. As far as Christmas films go, you could do much worse.
