Alexanne B Yes this is a Hallmark Christmas movie, and wouldn't it be awfully hard to make a Christmas rom-com unpredictable? So you sorta know what's coming, but the characters are just good regular people, and one thing that isn't here is any annoying initial dislike for each other on the part of the main characters. The relationship comes across as believable and sweet. The scenery is gorgeous, the actors do a good job. A nice little movie. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/10/24 Full Review Melissa H So sappy and so drawn out. I swear half the movies was music montages. I usually like Hallmark and Hallmark-type moves but this one was terrible. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/08/24 Full Review Nancy M I liked this movie much more than I thought I would. While it's still a Hallmark Christmas movie, the writing seemed intelligent and the acting was sincere and not predictable. It may be my new Christmas to watch every year. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/05/24 Full Review Bethany H I was surprised how much I loved this movie!! The advent calendar and the Christmas family traditions were so unique I'm going to try implementing them into my own family traditions this year! Overall, a very one-of-a-kind Christmas Movie I think more people should see! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/20/24 Full Review Leslie F There were certain parts of this I liked, and parts that I didn't like. Pros: The setting in Germany was a nice change from most of the Christmas Rom Coms that tend to be set in the US or UK. I liked the idea of the Christmas market and including a lot of family traditions, especially the German ones. I thought the actors did well, even if German accents fluctuated throughout. Nice and lighthearted, family friendly. I would be willing to put this on during a holiday party just for some Christmas ambiance. Cons: The bulk of the conflict in this movie revolves around the main characters unwillingness to pay for good reputable shipping, despite needing to ship extremely important and irreplaceable goods. This just doesn't seem realistic. At the end she says it isn't about the money, so WHY did she choose an unknown shipping company to save money in the beginning? This one decision is basically the plot driver for the rest of the movie. From that moment you knew exactly how things were going to unfold. As expected things go horribly wrong but instead of having a backup plan when problems start happening she just continues to trust the shipment will arrive and all will be fine. This seems extremely naïve and doesn't work out well for her. As a good Christmas movie should, the day is saved in the end with help from her new friends but I couldn't help thinking this all could have been avoided. As with most Christmas Rom-Coms there is a love story spanning just a few weeks and a happily ever after. I don't mind this so much since it is a major plot point for this genera, but paired with the other issues it adds to how unrealistic the storyline is. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/20/24 Full Review Linda J Just unrealistic, too sappy and it drug on for ever! It got one star since location was fun to see.
