Though he is usually dispassionate and efficient when working on such tasks, events take a different turn when he becomes entangled in the lives of the town's eccentric residents.

Obviously a labor of love for all parties involved, Noelle is an engagingly low-key, Christian-skewing indie.

There's an air of sincere piety...but it's simply not very good

Catholics upset over 'The Golden Compass' should direct their ire at this film instead.

Nolle balances wit and pathos, legalism and relationship, guilt and grace in such a way that will ring true in both your heart and your head this yuletide season

Rated: 3/4

I like the movie even though the acting wasn't always great. It was clean, with a strong message about forgiveness and new life in Christ. I loved the story.

Wow. Tried to watch to end. I did it. If not for the Robert Redford look alike, I would have tossed it about 3 minutes in. Man… is this the saddest most painful experience I've ever had!

Classic Movie Lover

I love the movie Noelle, originally named Mrs. Worthingtons Party. I think its very underrated. The more I watch it the more I realize its depth and feeling. I honestly dont understand the low rating a few people gave it. It is a well written story with double entendres and puns to give it a touch of humor along with the underlying drama. The acting is great. The story builds and each scene is a story in itself. This film is a labor of love for all who participated in it. The ending is just astonishing and moves me to tears every time. It truly is a classic Christmas story. Give it a chance and watch it. You wont be disappointed

Would not watch this again. Decent production values, not much variety in setting. Rather predictable. Character development limited to the 2 priests, and that lacked depth. Too much time spent on squabbling/problematic nativity "actors". David Wall is handsome and that is what held my attention.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

WOW ! THAT WAS BAD !! If you want to waste some of your life. This is your movie. Bad acting, terrible plot, horrible cast and that's the good parts. I will use the "because you watched noelle" ist as a list to movies never to watch and for the movies on that list I will apply the 7 degrees of separation to those movies and not watch any of the movies in the chain. If you are looking to kill brain cells however it will do the trick.
