C-
Christmas In Conway doesn't get into the emotional landscape of the town as much as you might expect from the title-it's comfortable just alluding to the well-worn territory of neighborhood drama. Go to Full Review

4/5
Mesmerizing performances by both Parker and Garcia transform what could have been a trite script into something truly heartfelt, and Moore holds her own between these Hollywood heavyweights. Go to Full Review

Al J @RT30879931 Dec 22, 2022 Get ready to cry at the end. It's all I say. Beautiful ending. See more Dec 11, 2016 Anchored by powerful performances from Andy Garcia and Mary Louise-Parker, Christmas In Conway is an emotionally captivating holiday romantic drama that inspires and features a solid Mandy Moore performance. See more Nov 29, 2015 Well cast. Well acted by A listers. Powerful storyline. A refreshing departure from the endless string of powder puff "Christmas" movies being shown on Hallmark. See more farah r @Farah Nov 29, 2015 Although there's a lot of drama and tragedy, it's hardly emotional at all. The performances don't give the story justice and overall, Christmas In Conway lacks a boost of "Christmas Spirit". See more Dec 23, 2014 This was very good, a little heartbreaking if I'm honest but I appreciated that it wasn't the usual cheesy or corny Christmas movie. A surprisingly great cast here too (Andy Garcia, is fantastic, Mandy Moore, very believable as the homecare nurse and Mary-Louise Parker is suitably sick. They all do a great job telling the story of a grumpy (heartbroken) man who goes about building a Ferris wheel for his ailing wife in their backyard as a reminder of the night he proposed. There are some very heartfelt moments here and a bit of a romance between Moore and the landscaper which is left a little vague, hinted at more like. I could have done without the brief attempts at humour i.e. the neighborhood Grinch woman and the cowboy junkyard man. A beautiful ending here too which at first left me surprised -what, that's it? Because I was so engrossed in the story. But then when I thought about it I realized I didn't really need to see anymore. 12/22/14 See more Dec 21, 2014 The love this man had for his wife was so beautiful. See more Read all reviews
