    • Trivia
      When decorating the Christmas tree, Madison mentions that her parents got the acorn ornament while on a trip to Aldovia. This is a reference to A Christmas Prince (2017), another Netflix Christmas movie.
    • Goofs
      At 27:33 into the film, Sir Cole opens the door for Brooke and her sister. When the door is open at its fullest, you can see green grass and trees, even though the film is set in winter.
    • Quotes

      Sir Cole: I have traveled here, and it matters not if I understand how.

      Brooke: But you know time travel isn't a real thing, right? In the 1300s or now in 2019.

      Sir Cole: Well, by that logic, only things that you comprehend are possible.

    Fun Christmas movie for RomCom watchers
    The movie is good but it could have been better. It felt too short to me for some reason but it was not boring or uninteresting. According to my review strategy:

    Story: 1/2, Task Fulfillment: 1/1, Actors: 1/2, Direction, Cinematography and Soundtrack: 1/2, Viewer Satisfaction: 1/2, Wow Factor: 0/1
