bradford william y 12/26/2017 An OUTSTANDING Christmas story ... family, love, commitment, redemption. GREAT script, cast, direction, filming, editing. An absolute classic ... a must see. See more 03/31/2014 I like Christmas movies but this really was schmaltzy dross. Very little imagination used with the story and plot and the father was such a one dimensional saccharine character it was difficult to form much emotional attachment to this film. No real time spent to dwell on how exactly the mother was able to come back which would have at least lifted this slightly. More made for the dumpster than for TV. See more 04/09/2011 Wow, what a bad movie. They tried to make a good kids family movie, and what did they make? A cliche filled travesty, that's what. Music played at almost every scene, even the scenes that were pointless, so when it got around revealing the mother, I thought it was going to be pretty magical, with music and drama, you know, the stuff that was in EVERY SCENE BEFORE IT, BUT NO!!!! All it was was you hear a voice, the girl turns around, and the mom was there with food in her hands. No music or drama in the only scene that needed it. *Screams*. The acting was horrible and the only person that was both played at least decent and was likable named Buddy, who was played by, get this, Ronny Cox. So, this movie is horrible, plain and simple. But, if you own a copy, I wouldn't be too disappointed, because you could sell it on eBay for, what, 3 bucks? See more 02/04/2011 Wow, what a bad movie.

See more 11/22/2010 Film Number 8. This is a Hallmark film, don't let that scare you. Most of what I've seen on Hallmark this season has been Chick Flicks, but this one is more family a good sit down lets watch it Christmas afternoon for the whole family. Movie is about a lonely widowed husband who after having a stroke starts seeing and talking to his dead wife. H insist his daughter takes them back to the home he and his wife lived in, that's when the story gets good and at times sad. Will not give no more away here. Only disappointment was seeing how Tess Harper has aged. 5 Stars See more Read all reviews
