Kat Halstead Common Sense Media 1d
2/5
While the premise is quite novel for a Hallmark holiday rom-com—focusing as much on Isabel's job as it does the romantic element—it's not quite enough to check the right box here. Go to Full Review
Brett White Pop Heist Dec 9
HIT
Still, the premise is very original and totally bonkers, and the budget is there (for the most part). It's definitely worth checking out, just to experience what is quite possibly the oddest Hallmark movie of 2025. Go to Full Review
Maddy Casale Decider Dec 8
This is a movie that doesn’t bring the cheesy charm and holiday magic you’d hope to see in a Hallmark Christmas movie. Go to Full Review

Tiffany G 1d Review: https://wp.me/p65txm-i1J/#ShesMakingAList P See more Lisa W @LisaEEWW 3d I love a good cheesy, lighthearted Hallmark Christmas movie and this was not it! The leads are great in other movies, but they don't make a convincing couple this go-around. Plot is confusing at times and feels rushed. Skip this and find another to watch! See more Brad W @BradPasta 3d Felt like this Hallmark movie had a much longer script and too much was edited out. There were characters that were introduced and seemed to have an important role that was never explained. There was an unexplained moment where one character stole money from children and never returned it. There were other layers that made no sense to the viewer while the onscreen characters seemed to be having an inside joke. That's what happens when the editors have a deadline they can't keep. Also - the two leads didn't have romantic chemistry. Felt like a brother/sister caper more than a romance. When they kissed at the end it was a little awkward. See more Ben J. @clay1403 3d The movie is simply not up to what we are used to seeing with these wonderful actors. Signed, disappointed. See more Dom G Dec 9 Love the actors but this could be the worst movie either of them has made to date. The plot is so weak I turned it off after 20 min, so disappointing. See more Jerry R Dec 8 This story was not for me, I thought Cadence Compton was excellent and Lacey and Andrew are always good. However I could not get through the entire movie and was disappointed.
